I am a list writer through and through. Lists are my life. I have so many things going through my head or that I am organising/responsible for at one time that I need to make sure everything is written down. Pre-smartphone days, I used to make proper ToDo lists and honestly I still like to […]
We are currently in the planning stage of redoing our courtyard garden. I have been doing bits here and there for the last 2 years and whilst I kinda know how I want it to end up, it is the little details and decision making that keeps tripping me up. However, I now have somewhat […]
So today marks 2 weeks since I had my last alcoholic beverage. I am super proud of myself. There has only been one time in the last 2 weeks where I really craved a glass of wine and I resisted by eating blueberries. I knew if I gave in and had that glass I wouldn’t […]
Tonight I introduce you to my little Cindaquil. He is shy and unassuming at first, but once you crack that, he is an awesome little dude that is full of quirks and love. I mean look, his arms are permanently in a position to hug! Cindaquil and Chikorita were the first adopted members of the […]
To try and get a bit more balance in my life I have started a few new daily rituals for my mind and body. Firstly for my mind, I have started doing half an hour of colouring before I go to sleep. This is after I have done my chores, brushed my teeth and am […]
After a week of being sick and not being able to do anything much at all, I was finally able to tick a few things off of my todo list that I had planned to do last weekend. Yay progress. That was the worst part of this week, I didn’t have the energy to do […]
I, like most people often forget to notice the small things in life. Now more than ever, I really need to. Those small things that are beautiful in their own way and just make you happy. Today I had one of those moments that I could just walk away from and never think about it […]
So turns out I am still pretty sick, but Appa was insisting he was on the internet. So tonight I will give in because I have no energy or will. Appa was the 3rd member of the stuffed animal family and just like Pabu was brought in to put a smile on my face, Appa […]
So yesterday I posted about how I was so tired after having so much sleep and needing to nap all day. Well turns out that lethargic-ness was a precursor to getting sick. Stupid body. Thinking back on it, I was also quite achy all over, but I thought that was just from my workout on […]
This might seem odd (see what I did there), but I have a real thing about socks needing to match. It is one of my OCD ticks. So when it comes to putting socks away it is my job because no one else will do it right (especially George). Even black socks have to match, […]
