September favourites 2015

At the end of last month, I had a whole list of things I wanted to do. Well, nothing on that list got done, really. The reason is that something unfortunate has happened, that made everything at home and in my brain a chaos of disbelieve and worries. Someone very close has ended up in the hospital and things just weren’t looking or feeling bright for the moment. There is nothing you can say or do to solve it, to make it better even though you wish you could. There is not a set time of how long it takes, which makes it a bit frustrating and uncomfortable, you can’t tell yourself: it’s only so  many days and then everything goes back to normal. Because you don’t know how long it takes for someone to recover.
                My brain still can’t quite comprehend what has happened. In a way it feels like nothing of this is real and it’s just a bad dream. You just think, well this can’t be true. It’s a bit strange how your brain often refuses to take bad news.

As you might understand, this blog has been a bit quiet. More quite then I intended it to be in the beginning of this month. I didn’t quite feel like it and besides not much would have come out this mind of mine anyway. But for the coming it will probably be a bit busy, I feel the need to get some distraction to be busy with other things, if I won’t I would probably go slowly mad.

The reason I am filling you in on this, but don’t tell all the details is because it is a private matter, but at the same time it didn’t feel right to completely ignore it like it didn’t happen. Which I can’t, I can’t pretend at tell you this has been a good month, because it wasn’t. I don’t want to lie, my blog is not a place for that.

It now seems to get better, thankfully..

Now on the few favourites I have.

Relaxing tea with vanilla, lavender and camomile: A tea much needed as my brain is filled with many thoughts and body is restless. I loved the tea even before things took a turn, the smell of vanilla or lavender are ones I love to smell. I can’t help sniffing this tea every time I drink it, it's just enjoy’s me. And of course it tastes good as well.

Kiehls wash: I have an oily skin and was on the hunt for a good wash, in the Kiehls store I was recommended this one and I like it. Of course at this moment my skin is breaking out and getting stressed and there is nothing I can do about it, but beforehand I really saw a change.

Squeaky clean shampoo bar, lush: The skin on my hand is always a trouble, there is always a sticky residue (I know, sounds gross) left and never had I a shampoo that would probably get rid of it, not even special ones, until I tried this one. My head feels so clean and my hair has become a lot healthier.
