My goodness, I hate writing about myself but I love reading about the people behind the blogs which I love SO Where do I start!?!
Well, first and foremost I’m Scarlett. I’m a ‘young’ mother of 2 ‘interesting’ children who are no doubt my whole world. Well this year I hit the dreaded 30 so I’m not that young at all. I LOVE spending my time talking to people about anything to do with hair, beauty, fashion, arts and crafts, cooking… anything girly really. As a teenager, I wasn’t blessed with good looks and was never shown things like ‘ make up’ a ‘shaver’ or ‘waxing’. Why my mother never showed them to me has always been a mystery. She always tells me that at the time, she thought I was beautiful , she didn’t believe I needed such things, but actually, looking back at the photos of me with ONE eyebrow that stretched from one side of my face to the other, without a gap, she agrees that maybe she should have introduced me to a beauty salon. Not to mention the wonderful hair that thickened each year above my upper lip… Oh the horror.
However, in my late teens, I stumbled across this thing called a beauty salon and this thing called makeup….. Needless to say I’ve never looked back and yes, I have 2 well maintain eye brows and no upper lip hair!
I’ve come up with a few questions about myself that I will answer so hopefully you’ll get a feel for the type of person I am: Here we go:
Where are you from?
I am from a small village within the UK. I moved here from London. Although I LOVE the city life, the constant fashion shopping, going out for meals daily, nightlife on your doorstep, The reality of it is that when you’re not doing all the above.. You’re working. The pace in London was always so fast, I had no time to stop, to take a step back, to breathe. I moved out of London after having the reality of my life bite me on the butt, on honeymoon. I’d been so busy that I hadn’t seen my family members in years, I had literally forgotten what was actually important in life. I was living a life of ‘work to live, live to work’ which quite frankly is depressing. I know I personally have to work to live but frankly, there is more to life. What I didn’t know when we started moving, was that the world we knew was about to change forever… not only were we moving out of the city and in to the country, I was unknowingly pregnant with my first child.
What do you do with your time?
I’m a very busy young lady. I am a *gulp* mummy! I have a little girl who is 5 turning 15. She is very beautiful, challenging, opinionated, compassionate and very VERY spirited. She’s also VERY hormonal (takes after her father OBVIOUSLY) She has already told me that I’ve ‘ruined’ her life after winning a game of noughts and crosses. God help me when she actually reaches puberty. I think I’m in for trouble…
My son who is about to turn 3 is soo loveable, and sooo charming. He looks like the cutest little thing with these bright big blue eyes. He looks like such a good boy, so innocent, wouldn’t cause anyone any trouble BUT be aware, be VERY aware… He’s a complete pain in the a**. He winds his sister up no end but he is beautiful, outgoing and very VERY spirited like his big sister. My children are my world. I love them more than I thought it was possible to love. They keep me on my toes, amazed and amused. We have good days, we have bad day. We are a normal family, although slightly crazy.
Not only am I a full time mummy, I’m also a student nurse and work within a hospital. My life is based on making a difference to those in need. I have and will continue to dedicate my life to my patients and studies. I work hard, very hard to be the best I can for my family and my patients.
What do you do in your spare time?
Spare time… what’s that? When i am not at university or working, I spend my time with my family. I’m not a ‘cool’ person. In fact, I’m quite the opposite. I don’t go out at night. The thought of clubbing or getting drunk is like torture treatment to me. My children are early risers… getting up at 5am, hungover and tired… It’s just a no go area. I need my beauty sleep (it’s clear by looking at me I don’t get enough anyway) Not to mention, the noise in the club… I spend my time with kids screaming at each other, children’s music and television in my ears, pots and pans with wooden spoons, musical instruments ect ect. Honestly, I don’t want music playing so loud that I can’t think, let alone talk to anyone. I find nothing better than curling up on the sofa with my man after the kids have gone to bed watching The Big Bang Theory, The New Girl and How I Met Your Mother.
So what do I do then you’re wondering (apart from spending time with my family)… I dance. I love to dance and I do ballet and modern. It’s a great way to relieve some tension and I just loose myself in the dance. A plus with dance, it helps lose weight.
Why have you decided to make a blog?
It’s simple really. I love blogs. I love reading them and have been for months and months. I’m hoping that my blog will give people new tips, ideas and maybe a giggle.
That’s me and my life in a really very small nutshell.
