Yesterday I binged watched The Goop Lab with Gwyneth Paltrow whilst munching my way through 1/2 a packet of chocolate peanuts (that weren't that nice by the way, but hey, it was chocolate!). Poor old Gwyneth gets a lot of stick (just read the article above). But I thoroughly enjoyed it, and learnt a lot.… Continue reading Netflix & Chomp

Being Enough
I was having a bit of a CBA day yesterday (can't be arsed). Which was funny as the #teamtomm podcast was on that exact topic. Yesterday was kitchen day (on the #teamtomm schedule), but as I'd already given it a once over on Wednesday morning (we had a house viewing) all that needed doing was… Continue reading Being Enough
Colours
Yesterday (as part of my #lessisnow challenge) I decided to sort through my pens. Woah...I didn't realise I had so many. I don't think I'll have to buy another one for years lol. I threw out (actually they're in a bag to go to the charity shop) over 150 pens, most of which were Biro's,… Continue reading Colours
The Power of Change
When we moved into this house we had a spare room downstairs. It was always going to be the library (I always wanted a library lol). I even bought two 7 foot bookcases at an auction in London four years ago to house my large collection of books (what can I say, books are my… Continue reading The Power of Change
My First Week With Less Stuff
Yesterday marked my first complete week of the #lessisnow challenge. I thought I'd start upstairs and work my way down, so the spare room is done and I'm now tackling my bedroom. I thought it would be really hard. As I said before, I'm a bit of a hoarder lol...but I can't even begin to… Continue reading My First Week With Less Stuff
The M Word…
I had an awful day yesterday. I felt (and still feel) utterly exhausted. I had a pounding headache all day and havent eaten anything since yesterday lunchtime as I felt sick. I feel like I have a hangover, with none of the fun part (ie consuming the alcohol in the first place). The only self… Continue reading The M Word…
Manifesting
I'm signed up to receive e-mails from the BBC website, giving me links to articles I might find of interest. Yesterday one of their links sent me to a video entitled "How Manifesting Became the New Big Wellness Trend" I did the whole ask the universe and Law of Attraction thing a few years ago… Continue reading Manifesting

Having A Break
I enjoy cooking...I find it very relaxing and a time when I can think. Stirring and chopping are a bit like mediation. But every so often I just want something I can bung in the microwave, and that involves as little energy as possible, on my part lol. My Carbonara was followed by a mug… Continue reading Having A Break
Little Things
I still can't shift my eye infection ☹️ I think it's probably my mucked up immune system, I don't fight infections well and often have to use antibiotic cream on small cuts as they become infected. I'm not sure whether that's down to my anaemia or the PA. I've been using tissue to dab my… Continue reading Little Things
