I'm Just me.. Marleen..

  Hey beauties  and welcome.. Today I want to talk BOOKS!! I am a huge book worm. I love book so much. Not only do I love reading, I love collecting old books also.  I love books so much that my husband built me my own library in one of our spare rooms. I love nothing more than spending hours in there sorting out my book series, checking which ones I'm missing in a series or simply just alphabetise them. A lot of my older book collection is in my native Danish and was gifted to me. I treasure these book although I admit I no longer read in Danish. As all 3 of my kids are book worms also, I have had to give them each a shelf in my library and even my husband has a small collection in there although he doesn't read all that much. Lately however I have gotten him to start listening to AUDIBLE . I LOVE audio books. Simply because they allow me to "read" while I'm doing other things as well. When I iron, cook or clean or anything else really that don't require much...

Hey beauties So many people reach out to me after watching my SHEIN hauls and ask me how to get the best success when shopping on SHEIN. So in order to help you out, and have it all in one place, I decided to sit and pen it down for you. First of all, if you are not familiar with SHEIN, they are a Chinese clothing company. They are SUPER affordable and has truly become a big player in the high street fashion industry. The main reason most people love SHEIN is simply that its like an online Primark/Penney's. They have so many small quirky things in the homeware department, their kids clothes are great and they have great fashion for both men & women. And here we come to why I love SHEIN. SHEIN is not only affordable but they have affordable fashion for PLUS SIZE !! I know of no other website that can offer the quality that SHEIN do. I know of no other website that offer as fashionable and quirky as they do. And I know of no other website that offer such a HUGE section for PLUS S...

Hello Beautiful People And welcome to my blog. Have you ever had a dream?? You wanted to do something but you just didn't know how to get there?? The obsticals were simply just too big?  Time wise it just wasn't possible? Money, or more likely the lack of it, stood in your way?? Ya me too...   For a couple of years I had been sitting at home, being a stay at home mum, wondering what was next for me. My kids are growing up. The baby is now 10, the other two are 15 & 17. In a few years time I'm no longer needed to be hands on the way we are when our children are small. For years I had my little crafting "business" going. It was me making handmade cards for companies in return for their products. It didn't make any money but it filled a void when I needed it. But as I slowly started to crave more I turned my nose to my new found passion. Plus size fashion!!! I had stumbled across plus size youtubers in my desperate search to feel better about my own body. Hav...

 Hello Beautiful People and welcome to my blog. Stress.. Ever feel so stressed you end up running in circles?? I do... Quite a lot actually lol. Since recovering from depression I have really realised how much stress I had in my life and how much it has affected me all my life. Stress, as I'm sure you know, is good for no one and for nothing. It stops us in our tracks and can make us physically sick if it's a prolonged state. Stress can be many different things for different people and knowing YOUR stress factors is key. What ever your stress factors are, you have to be aware of them and learn to implement rules and tecniques to reduce the stress. (I learned mine by stopping and taking a 2 min break when I felt I got stressed. I kept a key word list on my phone, so when I got stressed I would quickly write down a few words of what I was doing and why I was stressed, if I knew. Once I had time to breathe again, I would take 5 mins to sit and think through the episode and slowly...
