I didn’t keep up with the tradition of getting very drunk like last year but one thing I decided to repeat was writing a post about my goals for the year- can you believe it’s a new one already? I’m not a fan of resolutions but I do have some goals for 2021 (who knows… Continue reading My Goals for 2021

Twenty two things I learnt at 22
On Sunday, I turned 23. Like lightning speed, another birthday came around, during a pandemic no less! Like most things, we made the best of it - with a meal in one of our favourite restaurants, then a little trip to Chester (and a well deserved rest from working from home ) - and I… Continue reading Twenty two things I learnt at 22
5 Podcasts You Should Be Listening to Right Now
I’ll be honest, until I started working from home, I’d never listened to a podcast before. I always thought I didn’t have the attention span for them, or the interest in them, but (apparently) it only took a global pandemic for me to realise podcasts are not only quite interesting, they are also the perfect… Continue reading 5 Podcasts You Should Be Listening to Right Now
Work From Home Diaries #2
In the last Work From Home Diaries, I talked about how the fate of my job has changed and shifted. I’ve now worked in my job for four weeks, which is exciting and weird at the same time. Though I’m loving still having the opportunity to work, and I can’t really complain about earning money… Continue reading Work From Home Diaries #2
Work From Home Diaries #1
Over the course of this year, the world shifted - and our lives with it - due to Coronavirus, Covid19 or whatever else the scare-mongering media are calling it these days. This virus has meant our relationships, plans, livelihoods were subjected to changes. The week before everywhere got locked down, I went to work (I… Continue reading Work From Home Diaries #1
The Gratitude Diaries #8
A few weeks back, I started The Gratitude Diaries: a series of posts documenting what I’m grateful for each week. I started this series in April, just as Coronavirus began to take hold, and - since - things have escalated. Though things haven’t been easy, there are still things to feel grateful for. The lovely… Continue reading The Gratitude Diaries #8
The Gratitude Diaries #7
A few weeks back, I started a series of posts called The Gratitude Diaries in an attempt to document things I’m thankful for each week because, quite frankly, it’s difficult in the situation the world finds itself in to feel thankful for much (I’ll post the link to the previous posts at the end of… Continue reading The Gratitude Diaries #7
The Gratitude Diaries #6
A few weeks ago, I started a series of posts called “The Gratitude Diaries”. Everything is a bit up in the air at the moment, the news seems to be bleaker than ever, so I thought I’d write these posts to remind myself - when I look back on these times, which I more than… Continue reading The Gratitude Diaries #6
The Gratitude Diaries #5
Four weeks ago, I started this series of posts (you can find them all here, if you fancy a read!) to document what I am grateful for each week. It’s easy, given the circumstances, to focus on the bad things and think there’s not much good. No pub, no seeing family you’re not isolated with,… Continue reading The Gratitude Diaries #5
The Gratitude Diaries #4
I started this series of posts three weeks ago (you can read the first two here and the more recent one here). With the news that Britain faces a further three weeks on lockdown at least, I think - now more than ever - we need to stay as positive as possible. Missing out on… Continue reading The Gratitude Diaries #4
