Christmas Hardships....

All of my long-term fans know the kind of woman I am, I'm not a scam artist nor do I ask for much in return from yourselves other than a bit of respect - which you all treat me with.

Some of you may know where this is going.... so.... on Friday I smashed my car up. I will be getting a cheque, but I don't know how long it will take, so I've ordered a new car using my vast overdraft. I am entitled to a hire car until the cheque clears but the company dealing is being it's usual, awkward, self, so I'm stranded in my apartment.

I'm reaching out here! I don't want to get bounced bills, I have another few hundred until I reach my maximum overdraft and, of course, I have rent to cover, bills and such, plus I'd like to eat (lol).

I would really appreciate it if during this difficult time you could purchase some of my media from Adultwork, or, if it isn't too shameless - donate to my Paypal which isalcaprone@paraprincess.com. I would suggest booking me, but I have no means of transport and do not offer an incall service.

Honestly, anything will do. Every penny counts. I'm ashamed to even put this request out, but we all know how much I need a car, and I don't have the means to wait for my insurance to 'decide' when they'll sort things out. 

I apologise if I have offended anyone with my request, and it is not my intention, or style, to ask for help.

Here's to hoping, anyway... Season's greetings,

It seems like everywhere has offers on this month to encourage spending and I'm more than willing seeing as it's cheaper to eat out than in these days! I've caught up on my sunbeds and am thinking of ways to make this year even better than last year. It won't be easy as I had a fantastic year! After you've broken your back it isn't easy for life to get worse. I've wheedled out my friends and am still building my life back up and I refuse to get old!

It was amazing on New Year's Eve. Well I can't really say eve as we made sure to go out after midnight in order to avoid the countdown and all the false cheer surrounding it. It's just another day people, get a grip! We asked for the service lift and they didn't even ask for our tickets which was a shame seeing as I paid online! The toilets were yet again through a heavy metal bar full of drunk people who wouldn't move! That toilet ended up flooded and we had to use another where the light broke!

Only a few people tried to approach me, one started telling me fair play for still going out to which I said the wheelchair isn't mine ha ha! Why shouldn't I go out and why the hell congratulate me on it? We stayed til nearly 5am then went back to mine.

Just as the snow was manageable and I planned to go to the local supermarket it started chucking it down again! I hope it will sleet or rain so I can go tomorrow!

I've been buying everything lately, Christmas presents for myself and why not? I bought 2 tight polo neck jumpers (boy they make my boobs look huge!), some thigh high socks, a new slanket as mine fell apart (buy cheap buy twice - bought a decent one this time!), a massage unit to put in my car for those long drives to London (my housemate will test it to make sure it doesn't hurt or get too hot anywhere I can't feel), a learning Welsh book as my housemate and I both speak a little bit of Welsh and this book will refresh our memories, some things I've bought I can't even remember!

Yesterday I went to get my eyelashes done. I pulled up outside the salon and got the wheelchair out. There was a gap between the car and kerb but I managed to get into the chair safely and into the salon and up onto the treatment bed. I now have semi-permanent super long lashes that I will need to get filled every 2-4 weeks depending how quickly they fall out. I was supposed to pick up a friend for dinner but he cancelled :-( never mind, slanket is on and I'm looking at my gorgeous cats all curled up, one on my chair and the other on my bean bag! I have a pair of grey knitted leggings on and a grey Rolling Stones t shirt where the trademark mouth is made of silver metal pieces, like rhinestones but metal.

I was a busy bee yesterday, I had an orthodontist appointment and as I had to be in London for 7pm I stayed in Cardiff and went for a carvery. When I got out of the car I took my make up and handbag in with me and struggled to the kerb where I saw a bloody pay and display machine! It applied to all parking spaces so I had to stick a pound in and wheel back to my car to put the ticket on display. When I finally got into the carvery I ordered my food and put my make up bag down and had assistance with my plate. When I was done I wheeled to the bathroom and did my make up and had a wee. I got back to my car for half 3 so a leisurely drive was anticipated.

It turns out Junction 2 and 3 on the M4 were closed,for no reason. The diversion took me all the way around and I finally arrived at half 7 - this was an hour later that the Sat Nav's estimated time. I arrived in one piece though and even managed to use the non disabled toilet. I was wearing a cream and brown striped skirt with brown tights and a cream vest teamed with a leopard print cardi and my leopard print gloves. I had forced my toes into a pair of brown high heels and on arrival took them off with my tights to see a red area where a bone in my foot had been causing my skin to rub but that's gone now. I took a pair of flat black ballet pumps with me to wear home which was a good idea as my ankles are hard to control in heels!

I'm taking my car for a full valet tomorrow...

It's not getting warmer but the snow has subsided. I kept warm yesterday in a brown patterned skirt with tights and thigh high socks plus a thermal jumper with another jumper over it. I had some some wonderfully warm gloves sent to me by a dear friend - cashmere lined and even they didn't work against the weather today and my fingers were freezing. I've been looking for warm clothes but I don't see many that I like. I follow my own fashion.

I haven't had any problems with the snow as it wasn't as severe as last Winter but it's only November. I'm going out at half 5 to see my friend and go for food.
