Things to do while in self isolation

This post was originally called things to do when your bored but given the current lock-down it seemed fitting to change the title. Im not self isolating as im classed as a key worker (i work in a supermarket) but i am social distancing when i'm not at work.

1.Have a Declutter

You know the one that i mean the one you always put off because you had no time maybe its your wardrobe or your makeup i know mine is !

2. Pamper yourself

I don't know about you but i always feel better when i have a pamper you don't even have to do a full pamper sometimes just doing a face mask or your nails makes you feel better and takes your mind off everything for 15/30 mins

3. Watch TV

Maybe you have things recorded that you haven't got around to watching well now's the time

4. Watch Netflix or Amazon prime or Disney+

Binge a box-set im currently rewaching Grey's Anatomy before i move on to Disney+

5.Start a scrapbook

If you dont own a printer or a photo printer there are a couple of free photo apps that allow you to get photos all you do is pay postage - Free-prints Snap Fish Boots Photo are the main ones i use but i also have a instax photo printer but the photo paper is expensive !

6. Face-time tour family and friends

Missing your family or friends instead of phoning them face-time them or even whats-app video them if they don't have a iPhone. Me and my mum are going to try face timing my grandma what could go wrong aha

7. Start a blog or a YouTube channel

Always wanted to give it ago ? well now is the time what better time to try it and if its not for you well then you know !

8. Read a Book

You can easily get lost in a book for a couple of hours

9. Bake

Doesn't matter if your cake comes out as flat as a pancake (mine does) or whatever you bake as long as it tastes OK you've made yourself and your family or just yourself a tasty treat (:

10. Learn a new skill

Learn a new language or learn to knit or draw or whatever takes your fancy

11. Watch a movie

Get all cosy with fairy lights snacks and the film of your choice perfect

12. Dance it out !

Ever watched Grey's Anatomy and seen Grey and Yang dance it out to where does the love go if not then just pop your fave tune on and dance it out

13. Exercise

Doesn't have to be a full on sweaty work out (one of my idea's off hell) Yoga Pilates zumba are good ways to release tension and stress.

14. Play board-games

Remember how long monopoly used to take and the arguments oh the memories board games are not just for Christmas

15. use your one form of exercise a day wisely

Walk the dog , go for a run , go for a walk enjoy the time you have outside as its now limited

16. Do some online shopping

This is very dangerous for your bank balance but also gives you something to look forward to

17. Dye your hair

If you've been wanting to experiment with a colour but have chickened out now is the perfect time as hardly anyone will see it

18. back up your phone

You never know what you have until its gone (whoa that got deep) but if you lost everything on your phone and you didn't have a back up you would be devastated well at least i would

19. find a pen-pal

Become the reason someone smiles when the post comes so its not all bills

20. Reach out to someone if your struggling

Please please if your mental health is struggling during the self isolation please reach out to someone dont suffer in silence

Goodbye 2019 (A roundup)

Image result for goodbye 2019

I did one of these in 2017 and was planning on doing a round up on my instagram but i like being able to come back and look at what i did in 2019. I don't lead a very exciting life so if your looking for adventures and such this isn't the round up for you lol.

January

Broke my converse that i use for work (never knew you could break a pair!) tried gin and tonic for the first time and fell in love with the drink  Chicago Fire came back to UK screens and that was basically it for January (does anyone actually do anything in January?)

February

I turned another year older and had my annual birthday meal at Damon's. Saw Rocky Horror for the first time which was AMAZING ! started watching Greys Anatomy and by the end of Feb i was almost at the end of season 2 ! and Jonas Brothers announced they were back ! pretty cool February in my opinion

April

Mums birthday happened and i didn't know then but it would be the last ever time we would eat at Damon's ! Sheffield United were promoted to the premier league as well

May

Big Bang Theory ended ! (still not happy that it was so predictable!) and James Corden told the whole of the UK that Gavin and Stacey was coming back for a Christmas special !

June

Nothing worth mentioning according to my facebook !

July

It was 2 years this year since Chester tragically lost his life. we had a heatwave which was awful and had a thunderstorm which was even more awful Orange is the new black came back for its last season which was not a good season for me (still cried at the end though)

August

got lost in ikea. My great gram turned 92 ! and we all went out for a meal. Football started again. Had another thunderstorm !

November 

Tried the new marshmallow hot choc from Starbucks which is very yummy. I was in a buzzfeed article I'm number 15 in the article I'm a celeb came back but it wasn't as good as past years in my opinion. I celebrated 2 years at my job (: and i got another hamster ( i went in to pets at home for Blake and Milo and just saw this hamster and new i had to get her i didn't think i would get one so soon but when you know you know)

Posted way to many Christmas photos. my tweet to aldi became popular. Broke yet another pair of converse i honestly don't know what i do to them while I'm at work. watched the new Grinch movie made it 26 Min's in and gave up it was horrible and not a patch on the original. visited Starbucks more times then i care to admit. watched many Christmas movies. Saw my family to exchange Christmas presents. Christmas happened i was very spoilt. Gavin and Stacey came back and it was so good no spoilers but that ending OMG ! Posted my 10 year photo thing @beckismith93 on insta if you wanna see it , and just like that we are now in 2020 !
