I gave up writing New Year resolutions a couple of years ago. I realised that if I don't keep them I end up feeling bad about it...whats the point? So last year I set "goals" and this year its "challenges". Yeah, I know, its just a play on words, and I can just as easily… Continue reading Challenges, Not Resolutions

Start As You Mean To Go On
I started 2021 with an Ocular Migraine, where my eye waters and I have a stonking headache. Its linked to my Psoriatic Arthritis (my immune system attacking healthy cells in my eyes) and can last a day or several. So yesterday morning at 5am I was popping painkillers with my first (and only) coffee of… Continue reading Start As You Mean To Go On
All Is Quiet…
...on New Years Day. Bono obviously didn't live with 3 Pugs! Its 5am, still dark outside and I'm the only one up. Nothing unusual there then lol. I haven't blogged since the end of March 2020. I didn't have the mental energy, and as the world descended into chaos, so did my life. My husband… Continue reading All Is Quiet…
March Review
A friend of mine, a lady I met through blogging a few years ago posted this inspirational post a few weeks back. It really hit home when I originally read it, but seems even more poignant today, this whole idea of a fresh start. Every day is a new day, every day we can get… Continue reading March Review
Fed Up With Toast!
We've been shopping once a week (or rather the husband has) and i'm struggling with toast or cereal for breakfast every day. A few weeks ago I was able to go out myself and choose what I wanted to eat the following day....but for obvious reasons...not now. So I went on Amazon and treated myself… Continue reading Fed Up With Toast!
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
Binge Watching
It seems like every time I go online or watch TV someone is talking about Netflix or Amazon Prime, catch up or boxed sets. What we should be bingeing on at the moment. Its crazy how life has changed in the last few years. I wont harp on about remembering the days when we had… Continue reading Binge Watching
Napping
Having the husband at home does have its benefits 😉 Yesterday I was up at 4.30 popping pain killers, so I went back to bed for a couple of hours once everyone else was up. I do enjoy that quiet time in the mornings, when its just me and the cat, but only getting 5… Continue reading Napping
Spending Time At My Desk
We finished decorating the house a couple of months ago. The room (affectionately known as the back room) was going to be my study/library. But when we decided to move we made it into a bedroom to aid with the sale. So although my desk is in there, it's not really felt like my study.… Continue reading Spending Time At My Desk
