    Every year I say the same thing, this is my favourite time of year! September is my favourite month (with the exception of December) because everything happens now as the world turns to winter. 🙂 I am off on holiday soon, too. I’m hoping for a lot of sea, sand, sun and shutting off everything…

    I find in incredibly difficult to be positive at times. It’s like a switch goes off and I am no longer able to function as normal. Sometimes I can see what triggers it and other times it will just hit me. Recently it feels like there is more of it – it’s happening more frequently.…

  • Sunshine!

    I like rain more than the average person. I think it comes with depression – to relish things like rain and thunder and crappy weather where you can make an excuse to not go out and hide under the duvet in bed all day. As much as I like rain, I love sunshine. I’m an…

    I’m still been battling the infections, but I believe they’ve all gone now for the most part. The Bank Holiday weekend was exactly what I needed and after dragging poor Hubby around shopping for clothes for him it was nice to relax and not do much for the rest of it. I went to bed…

    Last week was tough in a lot of ways. I’m sure the previous posts shows some of that. I assure you it’s not all doom and gloom, I had a brilliant weekend with one of my besties. 🙂 I really struggled to get back into the swing of things last week and now I feel…

    This whole month has been a really horrible, sucky end to the year. With the exception of the time I spent in Bournemouth with Sara and Christchurch with Sarah (hee hee, yes I do find that amusing!) this whole month has been crap. It’s more emotional stress than anything if I’m completely honest. It’s never…

    I have had the best weekend in a very long time and it’s only Saturday. I arrived home today around 6pm after my adventures away last night and Hubby kept commenting on how social I’ve become and how I’d never have done these things 5 or 10 years ago. I corrected him and said not…

    I had really high hopes for this year. The last few days of my holiday in the States I was really looking forward to coming home and making a huge splash with everything. Things just went downhill from there. The fact that I was really looking forward to coming home (the UK) while on holiday…

    My title comes from Careful by Paramore. It is one of my currently fave songs because of this one line. When I finally listened to the lyrics and heard it I was a bit shocked. Shocked because that one line sums up how I look back on my life. I’ve dealt with depression for a…
