Why Don't We Do Christmas Like The Americans?!

Being a HUGE fan of Christmas i always get the deccies up pretty early. This year i started to put them up the second week in November. Yes i know its early but 'oh i wish it could be Christmas everyday' :) I was looking through you tube videos for inspiration for my tree this year after seeing how well all the American an Canadian you tubers trees looked last year. So i saw this beautiful white tree with green and red baubles & ribbons and it just reminded me of a giant candy cane! Bahm!! i was sold. 

I went out and found myself a white tree in fact i got major bargain on it reduced from £39.99 to  £9.99. At least i thought it was a bargain at the time... Turns out you get what you pay for. 

My poor little tree is so bare even with a million baubles and lights the branches just aren't bushy enough. :( i saw a video on ciaoobelllaxo's vlog channel this morning LaVitaDiMeg - HTTP://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ece3r1Z5RMk and holy Christmas the Americans really know how to do Christmas!! They have shops that seem to just sell tree ornaments! And I'm talking a pretty big shop here. I have searched high and low in my town and i can't seem to find any decent green tinsel anywhere i thought it would help bulk out my tree a bit but all i can find is lime green and that does not say candy cane to me! 

I just so wish Britain would catch up already and go crazy for the greatest holiday of the year like the Americans do! I have major country envy here! Anyway i got some great ideas from Meg's vlogs so come Friday i will once again begin the search for MORE tree decorations! 

How does your tree look this year? Have you had trouble finding what you want? Or is it just me haha. If you have any suggestions of where i could bulk my tree up on the cheap it would be greatly appreciated if you left it in the comments below. :)

Home Alone... Day 1

Hello there friend :)
I am alone for a whole week!! The bambinos have gone off to the caravan in wales with ther nan and granderand. So im left twiddling my thumbs and i seriously am bored and do not know what to do with myself. I woke up around 12 in the afternoon after going to bed at around 1am probably the longest sleep ive had in the three years my lovely babies have been on this earth. im not sure if my bodies trying to catch up for the last three years or if im ill but i have slept like the dead for the last 3-4 days. It's just not like me at all! i also still feel pooped and feel abit car sick even though i havnt been in a car today hmm confused face o_O.

Anyhoo so yeh i got up got myself dressed... i say dressed i just threw on some clothes an put my hair up. Then at half 12 i walked up the street and round the corner to view a flat for my lovely sister who is moving up from london in a week woohooooo :) so the flat wasnt great but yakno these things need to be seen to be sure. The estate agent i think his name was Lewis... maybe thats someone else i dont know. but anyway he actually ended up showing me 3 flats because the whole building was empty... kind of creepy really but the first two were no use anyway because they were one beds and just wernt that great really. The last flat he showed me was wayyyy up at the top of the tower, ok so it wasnt in a tower but it was in the attic/roofspace. I was really dissapointed to be honest it was so dirty and dusty and just no way to show off to potential tennants. Ill insert some pictures here...

Ok so the pictures dont look awful and its not the worst place ive seen but even still it was dirty and i mean D.I.R.T.Y. 

After viewing the flat(s) i got home at about 1.30 had something to eat watched some youtubers and cleaned my living room carpet it was abit crazy at first because i didnt have a clue what i was doing but i got the hang of it. i used the VAX powermax carpet washer it was surprisingly easy and now my carpet smells great. It took around 20 minutes for the whole process wich included putting the water and washing fluid in and then soaking the carpet and sucking up all the minging water. so its about 9pm now and my carpets dry, smells great and has its original colour back... tbh there wasnt much change in the colour anyway because its a brown carpet but it looks fresh anyway :) 

When i finished doing that i got into bed and continued to feel sorry for myself because im all alone in the world and feel ill. I carried on watching youtube and then decided to blog because i have been neglecting you! I am now going to go do some work on a blog all about living with my sons right hemeplegia/ cerebral palsy. how we discoverd it, how it affects him, what treatment he gets and so on and so forth it wont be up straight away because there is ALOT to talk about but look out for it in a few weeks and ill be sure to update as much as i can this week what im upto while im home alone.
