I'm happy. It's been sunny, but frosty and bitterly cold (not cold enough to wear a coat yet [I think around -1 Celsius is the lowest it's been] but I have been wearing my scarf and hat!) so I've been for a walk every day and it's given me such contentment. Feeling my cheeks and… Continue reading At peace with everything
Solution to my sad
Who knew there could be such a simple solution to me feeling down and gloomy and overwhelmed? I certainly didn't, although after all these years I really should have done. Legally Blonde. Yup, the film from 2001 starring Reese Witherspoon. I've always loved this film and I've seen it oh so many times, but when… Continue reading Solution to my sad

All was well, I was happy doing just window shopping and proud to… Continue reading I nearly failed!

Or, you know, overnight oats! Also known as the most amazing thing ever right now! I can't stop shouting! I know I'm a bit late to this party, but hey, better late than never, eh? Especially when it comes to ooooots, apparently. Because oh my wow, our household is impressed! I obviously knew about ooooots,… Continue reading Ooooooots.
Not much happenin’…
I realise it's been a hot minute since I last wrote anything, but I really don't have much to write about at the moment. Just trotting and pottering on. Let me see if I can bring out any highlights of my current utterly happy, cosy, comfortable and thoroughly boring (in the best way!) existence. I… Continue reading Not much happenin’…
