In spite of everything, it was one of the best… Continue reading 28 | Quarantine Edition
Tomorrow here in the UK, it's Mother's Day. I won't lie, it's going to be a pretty shitty one this year. For the first time since I was at uni, I'm unable to see my Mum tomorrow.

As my regular readers will know, most of my playlists on Spotify consist of Taylor Swift, Disney songs and music featured in Grey’s Anatomy.

While… Continue reading My Christmas Playlist

It’s official - I’m now 27. My birthday has been and gone. But what a fabulous day it was (until the end, but I’ll get to that later). It was definitely my best birthday for quite a few years - I saw everyone I wanted to, I had some great presents, and my husband bought… Continue reading 27
The 4th May 2019 is my 27th birthday. I’ve learned a few lessons over the years, some of which are quite important, some of which are just little things I’ve picked up.

I originally wrote this post back in 2019 for Mother's Day - there are hundreds of reasons why my Mum is the best, but here's are some of my favourites.
