I recently discovered the Life Interrupted Podcast with Simon Thomas. Simon is a TV presenter who lost his wife to Leukaemia back in 2017. He wrote a book about his grief and the podcast is where he interviews celebrities/notable people, who have lived through difficult times. Today I listened to the Paul McKenna episode, which… Continue reading A Life Interrupted

Ups & Downs
I think I (we) have had more than our fair share of downs in life. Our family motto is...if it can go wrong, it will...to us lol. Over the years we've had some almost comical bad luck, stupid things that test your resolve and at times its had me thinking that someone up there has… Continue reading Ups & Downs
Being Grateful
I discovered a new podcast recently...The Law Of Attraction Changed My Life with Francesca Amber, which I am absolutely loving! I think the main reason I love it is because she's so down to earth. Most podcasts are American (which isn't a problem...but...), so to find one that is done by a "Lunden gell" (as… Continue reading Being Grateful
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
Counting Your Blessings
My brain is completely shot to pieces. I just don't seem to be able to focus on much right now. The only thing I seem capable of is listening to Podcasts, reading non fiction and drinking tea...lots of tea...oh, and eating rubbish lol...I can feel my anxiety levels rising on a daily basis! I know… Continue reading Counting Your Blessings
E-mail Overwhelm
I heard an interview recently by productivity guru Tim Ferriss where he spoke about being overwhelmed about the amount of e mails he gets everyday. If you read the article above you'll see that there are a few people who don't agree with him...but...it got me thinking about the amount of e mails I had,… Continue reading E-mail Overwhelm
Getting It Off My Chest
I've been doing a lot of journalling these past few days and yesterday I started a new notebook. Theres something really wonderful about starting a new one. All that promise...all those hopes and dreams that will be written down over the coming months. Along with all the worries and concerns of course. I'm finding it… Continue reading Getting It Off My Chest
Happy Vs Sad
On Monday I admitted defeat and accepted that I need stronger meds, then yesterday I spent a couple of hours at a car dealers looking at cars. So far this week has been pretty emotional...let me explain... I've had my car for 6 years. I love my car...its nippy, its small...ish...its comfortable...its a convertible...a bit… Continue reading Happy Vs Sad
Admitting Defeat
Sometimes, self care is about admitting you need help... I’ve been soldiering on with bog standard pain killers for the last couple of years, but yesterday I gave in and accepted the medication the doctor has been trying to persuade me to take. Googling this stuff is pretty scary, but, i’m willing to give it… Continue reading Admitting Defeat
What Children Teach Us
Really hectic day today...a new carpet being fitted in my bedroom meant that the whole room needed to be cleared by lunchtime...then throw a 2.5 year old into the mix (our grandson) and you have a recipe for disaster...or so I thought. But...he thoroughly enjoyed helping Grand-Dad dismantle the bed, had no problem being shut… Continue reading What Children Teach Us
