30 Things I Love About You

Today’s post is a slightly different flavour to what I’ve been writing about lately, but it’s a special occasion. This weekend was my husband’s 30th birthday. I don’t normally write much about our relationship, but I wanted to pay some sort of tribute to him for his birthday (regardless of whether or not he reads… Continue reading 30 Things I Love About You

A Very Last Minute Hiatus

I wasn't particularly expecting to write this post so soon, but if 2020 has been anything, it's been utterly batshit crazy. Earlier this year I mentioned that we had started proceedings into buying another house, and things just started moving again when coronavirus took a massive shit on all of our lives. I'll tell you… Continue reading A Very Last Minute Hiatus

A Day in the Life

I’ll be honest with you - coming up with ideas for content is hard. So hard in fact, that I spend more of my time searching for content ideas than I do actually writing it. One of the suggestions that keeps coming up in the ideas I’ve found is to write a ‘Day in Your… Continue reading A Day in the Life

How I’ve Changed in 10 Years

Admittedly, this is probably something I should have posted a little bit earlier in 2020, but I struggled to get out the content I’d already planned, so anything extra was definitely a bit unrealistic. Anyway, towards the end of 2019, there were loads of people doing the Ten Year Challenge. I had a go at… Continue reading How I’ve Changed in 10 Years

11 Things in 11 Years

Soz guys, it’s another Valentine’s-esque post. If you read my last post, you’ll know that Valentine’s Day marks mine and Liam’s 11 year anniversary. My last post was all about how we met and what’s generally happened over the last 11 years, but today I thought I’d put together something that looks back on my… Continue reading 11 Things in 11 Years

Valentine's Day is always a special day for me and my husband. I know of a few people who absolutely HATE Valentine’s Day, and I kind of agree that it’s a massive marketing ploy to sell extra flowers, booze and chocolates after the post Christmas slump. Despite that, we still celebrate it. Valentine’s Day for… Continue reading 14.02.2009

Swiftie Heaven, Comedy and Festivities: A Review of October, November and December

As promised, better late than never, here is my final quarterly round-up of 2019. It feels weird to be writing it even though we’re in January, but it’s finally here. Anyway, not only is this my final quarterly round-up of 2019, it’s actually my final one full stop. Mainly because, I’m switching to monthly ones.… Continue reading Swiftie Heaven, Comedy and Festivities: A Review of October, November and December

Blogging Behind the Scenes

In January 2020, it’ll be a year since I launched my blog. I know right, WTF? I never actually realised that people would enjoy reading my stuff and that they’d keep doing it for a whole year. Anyway, I’ve read a few of these ‘Behind the Scenes’ type posts recently, and I think after nearly… Continue reading Blogging Behind the Scenes

Stuff I Sort of Like About Myself

Most people who know me will know that I don’t particularly give myself an easy time when it comes to how I look. I’m the first person to pick out something that looks awful in a photo of me, to belittle my achievements and to dismiss anyone who says anything nice about me. So, today… Continue reading Stuff I Sort of Like About Myself

My Anti-30 Before 30

I’m often very guilty of focusing on stuff that I haven’t done or that I’ve failed at. I hardly ever look at the things I’ve achieved and I think that’s partially why I’m always so negative about myself. Most recently, I was looking through my 30 Before 30 list and it genuinely depressed me because… Continue reading My Anti-30 Before 30
