Konbanwa~
I woke up a lot during the night aching and i was hot
the bed was roasting I cant believe how hot I can make my bed!
I got up and cleaned my pets out
then gave my hair a quick wash and went for my much needed hair cut~
My hairdresser is always lovely to me
she's 55 and very down to earth we share the same name too :)
and she still only charges me her old prices which is amazing of her
and she shares same birthday as helina
She asked me "so what are we doing today then?"
I replied "I would like to be able to see again and all my split ends removed please"
When I got home I did some more description writing for ebay
god it is gonna take me ages I know it is, I keep putting it off
cus its so boring and dull to do
Katey had emailed me with a photo of her pets
she wanted photoshoping so I did that for her~
I started doing lynn's bunting
I've cut out 18 flags which are all very colourful to brighten up
her craft room :)
I finished my book series, it ended well
it was quite a predictable story line in a way actually
but still I read it
started another book, yet another werewolf book XD
Frank was bathed today by me and mum
gave him a good scrubbing which he hated
he wouldnt even let us dry him he was that disgusted haha
but once he dried i gave him a brush and hes all presentable
i will brush him again before he goes home tomorrow
i noticed he has a lot of fur loss on his back leg
Hes been a bit down today so Im wondering if hes home sick
I did my pampering session today
after I had my hair cut - i could see once again
i fel instantly better but i wanted to pamper myself as I dont usually
so here's what I did~
1. Cleaned my face with toner
2. Shampoo my hair
3. Brew up a green tea
4. Light oil burner
5. Cut cucumer
6. Apply the 1 minute warming mask
7. Paint toe nails

that was my afternoon~
I felt so fresh afterwards!!!!
My hair is so soft and silky~
Tomorrow I'm gonna do some more of Lynn's bunting I think
and I have been working on Karen's elephant hanging so I may
do that too~
Evening all~
I can not wait for tomorrow
tomorrow is the day I finally get a hair cut
my hair is so limp and annoying the hell outta me right now!
so 10am I will be there having it cut ^^
Anyway yoga last night
it was my first yin yoga session
its very different to hatha yoga
hatha yoga you feel like your burning calories off
yin yoga your very still and not moving it was difficult but a different difficult
i enjoyed and mum did too were gonna keep going with it
This morning I went swimming with mum
I did my 14 lengths
mum did 20!! I was amazed
I felt like I could have pushed more outta myself but I didnt wanna over do things
I came home, had some soup and went to rest on my bed whilst reading
The bias binding came in the post for Mia's bunting
so I sat and pinned all 25 flags
then stitched it up
Looks really good and I cant wait to see her face but that wont be til 26th december!
god knows how im gonna be able to photograph something thats 5m long!!!
I also made this from my mums old dressing gown
Bit random but I made it before swimming this morning
kinda like a bracelet scrunchie but its cute
Tiffin has been a bit off with me today very growly and bites too
frank is doing good, i gave him a good fussing today and he about fell asleep!
he such a lovely bunbun
I sorted out some scraps of fabric, ironed then, cut them straight
i plan on selling a few remnants on ebay, just 3 bundles to see if they sell
cant hurt really, gonna photograph them tomorrow
speaking of ebay 2 things happened today
1. i had won 2 figures at 2am so for a total of £8 so now that means both Ed's and Mia's christmas presents are totally utterly finished, which is a good feeling - ticking people off the list
2. an orange eye liner i ordered off ebay came today - clearly not orange its gold -_____-
i was not impressed so i emailed and brought another make which looks like what i actually want!
tomorrow I am looking forward to giving myself a beauty treatment~
Good Evening~
This morning I decided to start shorting out my photographs for Ebay
gotta start somewhere, so I was just trying to make them look better
Then I went onto doing the description about them, which is gonna be
an even longer process
After lunch me and mum went for a walk and then for a brew
which was nice, we were able to sit outside too
as the weather has been nice today
and no rain so far! Probably rain in the night
I came back and slept as i do on yoga day
then just continued doing my descriptions
nothing special about today
Tonight me and mum are gonna try Yin Yoga
yin yoga is basically holding positions for a few minutes not a few seconds
its suppose to be good for joints and restore energy levels
which if it works, will be perfect for me.
Im thinking of asking karen if i can come help at her children's yoga classes over summer
Tomorrow I am going swimming with mum again
gonna attempt my 14 lengths this time!
im counting down the damn hours til my hair cut on saturday morning
it cant come quick enough!
Im still treating frank he is looking better eat day and hes really happy too
which is nice to see, i hope he continues to be happy
This came in the post today~
My 99p poke'ball necklace
cool huh
You could buy just poke'ball necklaces but i liked the added effect of the moon
so wearing to school next week!
Otsukaresama deshita~
Last night I did not sleep well
thanks to a certain someone
frank....
him and his blasted back feet kept waking me up
rabbit thump their back feet against the ground
its a way to warn others of danger
but frank just does it cus hes just frank really
he's always done it, but with him now having a bad back leg
i didnt think he'd do it, or do it much
he did it a bit on sunday night
monday night i didnt hear him
but last night my god
he must have done it over 100 times not exaggeration there
my brother heard him, my parents did and so did helina next door
so i was not impressed with him this morning
i was shattered for school
Still i got up, i was late cus i over slept so i went to do my make-up and hair quick
style but it still ended up taking me a while -____-
My fringe (bangs) are in need of some serious attention ><
but i got to school on time
i was with the littlest class again today
i spent the morning sticking 60 sheets in books
cutting paper to make hats
and rolling up paper and tying ribbon round them
mundane tasks but i didnt mind
after lunch was their first ever sports day
so they were all dead excited as you can imagine 5 years to be
they all had to get ready into their P.E. kits
i always feel a lil awkward being in a classroom full of children just in their underwear..
i always feel like i shouldnt be there
but what can you, some even need a hand getting dressed
one child said to me
"are we going on the field?"
"yes"
"is it sports day?"
"yes"
they had been told it was sports day god knows how many times!
i turned round to see one girl grab her own nipples and say to her friend
"look these are nipples"
i was gonna lose it at this point XD
i had to take the ones round the activities who didnt have parents come to support them
but luckily only 1 child didnt have their parent and went round with his friend's family
so i was off the hook
i went to check the activities out then i stood talking to a few teacher
i took photos of the class doing the race with a cruddy camera
then it was home time and an early home time at that~
so an easy day really
the only thing that got me was the kids out on the field saying
"i need a wee"
so id go and trek to take them to the toilet to come back and another one say
"i need a wee" i just think 'why didnt you say 10mins ago and we could have all gone!?'
children
There was a mums and dad race
they didnt have this in my day but then mum wouldnt have joined in i know
and dad didnt even attend a single sports day
so the mums were first
the head teacher was shouting for those who wanted to join in
no one came forward at first
and i thought 'if i put myself forward others will'
at the moment i was gonna walk out a mum came from no where
wearing running shoes, cropped leggins, sports vest
yeah it was over kill considering all the other mums were in t-shirts and jeans...
when i saw her i decided not to bother cus she looked like she wanted to win
taking it way to seriously, and yes she did come 1st place
the dads race made me laugh, men can get so competitive XD
i came home, showered and had a brew
then layed with tiffin on my bed whilst frank played outside
i had my eyes closed and tiffin snoring
we're a right pair
tomorrow i have few ideas on how to pass the day~
Good Evening~
I slept for 11 hours last night
I took a sleeping pill
had lavender oil burning
Had a hot drink before bed
and rubbed sleepy oil on my wrists
yeah i was making sure id sleep
and it worked X3
I had the pets to sort out in the morning
its a lil tricker with frank in the mix as he sits under tiffin's cage
tiffin is going mental at his cage bars, sawdust flying everywhere
frank just wants to be social but tiffin wants to claw his face off
i think its just fear with tiffin as he doesnt know frank
kip was like that at first then he and frank got along fine
but what with frank being double the size of tiffin and having mites
i do not want him to play with tiffin
so now when frank comes out i bring tiffin inside out the way to chill out
so ive had him round my feet a lot lately but i dont mind :)
I started ironing out all of mia's bunting flags
whilst tiffin was with me of course
then i trimmed them
ahhh 25 neat bunting flags is a satisfying sight~
I went to pin them to the 4m of bias binding i brought
and im a meter too short -______- typical cus i almost brought 5m as well!
but i said to myself 'your buying too much again'
i have loads of bias oddments in the draw!
So I went online to see if i could find anything
and it turned out i could buy what i needed half price and the exact colour
i wanted in the first place! So thats what i did :)
Just gotta wait for it in the post but theres no rush anyway
I fell asleep as i was in pain and had enough of it
so i fell asleep on my bed for an hour
felt good to be so toasty and warm whilst it rained
Frank's mite condition is improving by the day
he has quite a bit of fur loss but thats from the mites not me
the spray makes his fur all spiky so im gonna bath him saturday and no spray
so hes ready and looking fresh on sunday in the meantime i will keep
spraying and grooming him, he lets me, hes very friendly
loves his food
i think one of his back legs is in pain, could be arthritis
it gives way and i can see him in pain with it at times
he about fell down the garden today cus of it bless him
i will be filling his owner in on all this
I canceled tiffin's appt at the vets as he seems to be fine now
much to my relief but i will be keeping a close eye on the little guy
but then i always do, its my job and i do it naturally
i know rabbit behaviour like the back of my hand
later on i decided to take photos of all the stuff i am planning to sell
on ebay in a couple weeks
took 80 photos altogether
i still have stuff in the roof to get down and photograph
but i have enough to be getting on with
and have all the write ups to do as well
glad its 80photos and not 80 items
I went for a bike ride for 15mins in the evening by myself
just got get some air
and then when i usually do some yoga the time was taken up by tiffin
who wanted cuddles on my bed X3 so i did that instead
Tomorrow I am at school. in the afternoon i will be helping
out with the infants sports day ^^ nice and easy and fun too
the weather doesnt look great so i hope it goes ahead
im wearing warm stuff anyway
i cant wait for my haircut on saturday
my hair is driving me nuts!
here are this week's nails
owls~
Good Evening
I didn't sleep til almost midnight
I couldn't get the image of Frank's worm infestation out my mind
Every time I tried to think of something else I was drawn back to it
then drawn to the worry I have of tiffin catching it, but also worrying about
tiffin as his stomach hasnt been great past few days
Then I woke up at 5:30am and Ive been awake since!
It was school, and I was working with the littlest class
the get really quite loud!
But I was used a lot and occasionally the jobs I did lead me to work outside of the classroom
in the peace and quiet~
I did some reading with the children, computing work, cutting, sticking
just a bit of everything really, i tell them to lay it on me and i'll get it done
i work so damn hard for no money, today i missed my break and i was late leaving
just cus i wanted to get a job done!
My brother met me at school, he'd brought me a towel to dry my bike seat with
as it had poured down and my bike was left out in it T^T
it was really sweet and unexpected of him to do
whilst cycling out of school I saw one of the young girls from class she called to me
"Jo is that your dad?"
"heh no this is my brother" her mum just laughed I turned to her
"im older as well!"
one of them guessed my age earlier in the day apparently im 13 years old!
I got home had a brew and a shower
shorted the bunnies out and i gave frank another brush and spray
honestly its looking loads better already i cant believe the difference in 48 hours
who knows come sunday he might be tonnes better, i doubt i can cure it tho in a week
but i will try my hardest!
Im just chilling out tonight
im gonna make sure i take a sleeping tablet and have my lavender burning tonight
i wanna have a deeeeeeeep sleeeeeeep
here are some photos i took yesterday
alice kept hiding from me, hence why she isnt in the photos
Konbanwa~
I woke up at 9:30am this morning!! ><
So late! But all well
This morning Tiffin decided he didn't want to play outside
which is very odd behaviour for my prince
usually everyday - even in the rain - he goes outside at 7:15am (when dad lets him out)
and hes goes outside to do toilet, he now prefers to wait to do toilet outside
rather than do it in his cage
but he didnt come out at all
so I ate breakfast outside thinking he will come out and see me
but no :/
so in the end I took him inside my room for analysis
I made sure he walked right, he was eating, and able to do toilet
all 3 were fine, so decided prehaps he was just feeling a lil quite today
the wind was strong so maybe he didnt wanna play out in it too
We had quality time together anyway :)
I wanted to start with mia's bunting but I needed to pop to go and get
some ribbon and lace, me and mum went to the shop and i just picked up
lace, 5 ribbons and 4m of bias~
Got back and started pinning and making bows for the bunting
Over the day I got them all stitched up
they need to be:
ironed
trimmed
stitched to the bias
the done~
but thats for another day maybe tuesday
Frank came today at 2pm
i stroked him inside his carrying case when he arrived
he felt old, you know that feel off an old animal like a cat
he is getting on i guess
so I put him in cage to let him settle
tiffin was outside at this point, he sniffed franks cage and walked off
not bothered, whereas kip wouldnt leave frank alone!
30mins later I switched bunnies over
so tiffin home and frank outside
i stayed with frank to make sure he was alright but hes as chilled as anything he is
but i watched him and im not sure he walks right like his back end isnt strong
and when i went to stroke his back end he flinched
as i was so close to him i noticed he has a load of white flakes behind his ears on his back
on closer inspection his skin and fur was FULL of these white flakes which look like dandruff
I have never seen this before, but from the looks of things this problem hasnt been here a few days its been here a few months, its really built up and thick. He has hair loss too i noticed
so I googled it
he basically has a bad case of mites
it is curable but takes a few weeks
medicated bathes and sprays can get rid of it and even injections from the vets
when i read further down
"humans can't get it but can feel itchy when in contact with the mites, it can pass to other pets, they live in the environment, bedding"
I felt sick, tiffin had sniffed the outside of franks hutch
and at that moment i could feel a panic attack coming on, stupid really
he only sniffed the outside of a cage he is probably fine
but the thought of tiffin catching mites and being in that state made me panic and feel sick
my parents came and i told them as soon as they came in
and got my parents to see for themselves
at that point we left for the pet shop
they didnt have a lot of choice but we brought a soothing bath wash
and an anti-bacterial/anti-insect-thing spray
none them are the 'cure for mites' but its better than nothing
so we got home, i filled a big plastic box with warm water and bath wash
dunked frank in, he was not impressed and tried to escape several times
good job we were outside anyway! water went everywhere!
When he dried off I brushed him and my god i got loads of flakes from him
some with blood spots on.....and then i sprayed him with stuff
i will brush him again tomorrow and spray more stuff
the whole time i did them frank stayed still, almost like he knew i was trying to help him
im hoping he feels a lil better already, cant be any worse anyway
anyway my shelves!! they are here!!
What do you think?
The French wine crates are housing my manga, a few anime DVDs
some plushies and anime figures too
its perfect and i love it, well worth the wait!
Things will probably get changed around over time but for now im content~
Tomorrow I am going school to work with the youngest class!
