  • “Those Days”

    It’s such a generic phase, “one of those days”.  It could mean *anything*. When you use it in conversation, it’s usually interpreted by others around you by your mood and/or recent events. Everyone seems to be having “one of those days” lately. Either way my days this week so far have been filled with a…

  • Perfect Day(s)

    I keep meaning to write about stuff I get up to… then I remember, I don’t do much! During the week it’s pretty much work-eat-sleep, repeat and the weekends we rest and chill out. Soon we’ll be packing again so rest and chill out time is key. On rare occasions we do have fun plans…

  • Lookin’ Lovely

    This may be hard to believe… I rarely buy makeup! I have so much that I don’t need to top up or buy new stuff very often at all. I think the last time I bought some was last year, for an event I had to attend. So it was time for me to buy…

  • Looking Back, Looking Ahead

    ^^ That’s definitely my sentiment right now! And well, if New Year’s Day hadn’t been a hungover blur combined with cloudy skies and high winds, I would have dragged hubby to the shore for a bit so I could get a fix. Next time! I digress before I’ve even started… Happy New Year! I hope…

  • Wowzers

    Has it really been a month? I guess I do have a habit of letting time slip away from me, especially between writing! This year has flown by, and I’m trying to think about all the things I wanted to happen this year versus what has actually taken place. I was hoping for a vastly…

  • Thankfulness

    Just because I am not celebrating Thanksgiving this week doesn’t mean I am not thankful. I will admit, I wish I was in Virginia celebrating it this year, partly because they are getting snow and man, I miss me a good snow storm. But I digress. I believe that everyone, everywhere has something to be thankful…

  • All Our Lives

    I thought “If I could tell her something I would tell her this There’s only two mistakes that I have made It’s running from the people who could love me best And trying to fix a world that I can’t change.” – All Our Lives by Andrew McMahon I’m not entirely sure what I should…

  • Please hold, your life will be with you shortly.

    That’s how I feel at the moment. Everything is kind of put on hold until we get into our new house. There’s all this stuff I want to do when we get in, but I can’t do it until then. Most of it is fun stuff – decorating, picking out furniture, designing wardrobes, some DIY…

  • Mindful Progression

    The past couple of weeks have gone quick haven’t they? It’s nearly November?! Sheesh. At the start of this month right after returning from holiday I got a nasty stomach bug. I haven’t had one for years. It’s pretty scary sometimes when you just can’t stop being sick, but thankfully it didn’t last longer than…
