I was recently challenged by Ashby from Dia & Co to 'Face My Fashion Fears'. I loved the idea of this, i'm not one to branch out and experiment when it comes to fashion, i just sit and stare admiringly at the people that do

I've always admired pretty flowers and arrangements, but never really thought about learning floristry and trying to create anything myself. I recently joined an evening Floristry class at my local college, and it's only been a couple of weeks I've finally found something my health doesn't prevent me from doing, and i couldn't be happier to of found this hobby. Theres nothing better than being surrounded by colourful, beautiful flowers, it really brightens the room and lightens the mood.

I have a soft spot for all breeds of dogs, but I know that some wouldn't be suitable for my personal needs. It's something you really need to look into before making the decision to welcome a dog into your home, as unfortunately it may not work out for you or the dog if it's not a right match. After alot of research and contact with charities i was told with my health conditions i would be entitled to a service dog, but because not many people are aware of the condition there wasn't many that were willing to take me on, and it could be several years i'd be waiting for a loving companion. It was something that daunted me at first, but after suffering for so many years i was willing to give it my best shot, and knowing that my dog may not necessarily be service dog worthy, i took the leap, and after a lot of thinking and researching, i decided to bring home my own puppy and start basic obedience training myself.

It's so much bigger than i thought it would be, and i was so grateful to Luke who was willing to push me around in my wheelchair all day, as my body definitely would not of coped with all that walking! ! We stopped at the first food stall we came across and bought some cinnamon sugar donuts with chocolate sauce drizzled over the top, they were the best donuts I've ever tasted, and i'm pretty sure everyone passing by could tell i was enjoying them from the chocolate sauce all over my face. I was determined to win a huge teddy on one of the games, we both tried our hardest and didn't manage a big teddy, however we did win 3 little teddies, and i was much better at shooting that i thought i'd be! The next time we plan a date, we are thinking of using a car renting company, to travel to and from London or wherever we plan to go, to make it that little bit more exciting.
