New Years Resolution

Already having doubts about the new years resolution.

Feeling like I've taken on more that I can manage. This new years resolution is already making me anxious. Tomorrow is the big new years eve blow out!! 

Most people have a massive feast for Christmas, my family always do it for new years. I guess its become a bit of a tradition with lots of food, snack, drinks and games and fun.

If I'm planning to do a health kick this year as my resolution. I guess it makes sense to have a massive blow out and eat all I can manage, but it's pulling the reigns back in that I'm worried about. 

Everything is in place now, all the decorations are prepped, the food is in the fridge and we even managed to buy a bingo set. Lots of family fun just waiting to happen. 

Hopefully I can keep to my resolution.
Until then,



Lots of love

Xmas Shopping

Not long to go...

I's almost Christmas.

Everyone is out and about doing last minute shopping for gift and a bargain. 

It's planned to be the busiest day with almost £2 million being spent a second on shopping.

I dreaded the thought of being out on the high street or even attempting to get anywhere near the West End. Instead today decided to stay a bit more local.

I managed to find all the things I needed. So all in all a good day out.

Being a bit of a bargain hunter I headed to TK Maxx and updated my Sportswear in preparation for Jan. I've got new sport socks a new Sport Bra, structured leggings that aid slimming and a few breath easy vests. Having my sports gear prepped is definitely helping me feel a bit more pumped and psyched up for a month of Gyming. 
I'm hoping that I can keep to my New Years Resolution and I can manage whole year at the gym and feel a lot more healthy and toned.

Next on my shopping list was baby clothes. 

My best friend is pregnant with her first baby, we've found out it's a boy and I've been knitting a blanket ever since I found out. (oh yeah forgot to tell you in my previous posts....I knit). I've almost finished the baby blanket but I wanted to get her an outfit to go with it and today I found such a cute baby grow, with an all-in-one with matching footsies and a baby beanie too. 

I'm well chuffed with my finds and I can't wait to meet my cute little nephew. She's due in Feb so not long to go now....

I'M BACK!!!

It's been a long time since I was last here, but I'm back and here to stay.

Let's just say a lot has happened since I've been gone. 
Here's a quick synopsis:


Changed my job,
Had two holidays abroad,
Massively addicted to Instagram,
Single...once again,
Prepping to become a gym bunny(new years resolution and all)
Christmas presents bought,
Looking forward to a new year and a fresh start,


Reading my synopsis my year is looking pretty dull and I'm probably not doing it justice. But I'm sure at some point once I get settled back into blogging, there will be a few throwbacks and pics from my adventures.

In the meantime, you can always follow my Instagram @Sarah_with_a_Z to catch up on a few pics and quotes I've got up.


Well I guess there's nothing more than to say I'm back and watch this space.

First blog of 2013

I'm still finding it rather weird that it's 2013. I haven't quite got used to writing 2013. I had to write out the date the other day at work and it hit me...It's actually been a year, and it's 2013 already.

So I've finally decided what my new years resolution is...I'm going to learn how to drive and take more pictures.

I'm not quite sure what I'll do with allmy pictures. Whether I want to put them on my wall, upload them and make a digital mural. What I do know is that I'm going to keep my camera in my bag and having it with me at all times, and will actually take the time to work out all the features and the great things it can do.

Taking pictures all the time is the easy one...learning how to drive now that's a whole different story. This will be my second attempt at trying to learn. Last year I tried to learn and even got as far as taking my first driving lesson but that's as far as I went.

It's a bit complicated, but I have anxiety when it comes to driving. The only car I feel comfortable in is my dads car. There are numerous reasons, but mainly every other car I've been in has been in some sort of accident, fender bender or small scrapes. Now I'm always anxious when I'm in cars.

I've got the theory book so hopefully once I read that and pass that I might be a bit more confident when it comes to driving.

Here are a few of the pictures I've taken.

It's Christmas!!!

It's here... Its's christmas and that can only mean one thing.....

Christmas food!!! 

Theres gonna ne turkey, stuffing, cranberry sauce, brussel sprouts, parsnips, carrots, a christmas pudding. 

Unfortunately I have just come down with a cold so stuck in bed this Christmas.

If I'm being honest I don't mind since I get to lie in bed waching all the christmassy films and disney cartoons that are on over the holidays.

Since it's christmas there's not long to go until new years. So being stuck in bed has bot me thinking about my new years resolution. I feel like Christmas I get soo much and I want to give a little bit back. There's this befriending scheme for children and those with autism to help them in society. The application process seems to be a bit on the long side but once the holidays are over I'm going to apply. 

Will let you know know how it goes. In the meantime I hope you all enjoy your Christmas amd boxing day.

Lots of love
