Every Saturday I will be featuring a small business I have bought from. This week it is B.Blissful B.Blissful sell wax melts and are one of a couple of small businesses I have purchased melts from recently. I ordered a few different scents and have tried a few out already. I think I have now discovered bakery scents are not for me, I ordered a couple of cookie type ones and I don't think I'll be trying them out. There is nothing wrong with these and the scents are great they just don't sit right with my nose so I don't think I'll try them. I have tried: Herbal Help This is amazing, it's a menthol melt which has been styled around the likes of a Vapour Rub. It's strong enough to break through a blocked nose but not so strong that it feels like your nose has been slathered with a vapour rub (which I worried it would be). I bought a small pot of buttons of this scent to try and I am ordering more this weekend because I love it. I don't just ...
These days it seems self employment is becoming more and more common with the rise of online selling abilities, rep businesses and the 'Boss Babe' movement. I'm all for anything which makes people feel more empowered and able to handle their own business, no matter what size. I've been in this game for 6.5 years now, although much more so in the last 2 or 3 and I thought I'd share some of my thoughts and experiences on self employment.

Now that October is over I can declare I didn't have any alcohol. I'm a pint of lager kind of girl rather than spirits most of the time and I don't go out very often so I wasn't drinking insane and unsafe amounts, I very rarely get more than a little tipsy. But throughout August and September I was having a couple of cans of lager every evening, it was basically "Roo's in bed, grab a drink and relax at last. Normally a crate of beer would last me month but instead it was lasting a week, it had become part of my routine and an essential part of winding down. Then we went on holiday and the fridge was kept well stocked, I ended up having a lot more to drink. I still wasn't getting drunk but I was drinking a lot more than is recommended albeit slowly throughout the day. So when I got home I decided my body needed a break! It was the 1st October and there were things on TV and social media suggesting Go Sober for October so I decided I'd do it. I also de...
