Over the weekend I put up a facebook post offering up my old slow-cooker, because my life is a non-stop rollercoaster of excitement and laughs. And people LOVED it. They are so surprisingly interested in slow cookers – and rightly so, slow cookers are Da Bomb. It’s like Past You has cooked Present You dinner […]
Facing Friday – New Term
It feels like the start of a new term to me at the moment – partly because of the changing seasons (spring is finally here YES!!!) but mainly because I have changed my working hours, and now only do 3 days per week at my day job – leaving me a LOT more time to […]
Health Kick Up The Bum – Starting Point
As I have mentioned before, a couple of years ago I joined Slimming World, revolutionised my approach to eating and my body, became much much happier in my skin and lost three stone. Bloody good show, well done me, etc etc etc. Having lost three stone, I became very complacent. “I am a size twelve […]
Writing Update – March 2016
It seems I have not been doing my weekly updates for you. Oh dear. Isn’t that shit. For the most part though – I don’t care. You don’t really need to know my opinions of films that are so old they’re already on Netflix (though Wolf of Wall Street is vg, if you’re interested) or […]
My Blog Crushes 2016
OH MY GOD it’s been two weeks, I said I wouldn’t do that, I m a Bad Blogger. It’s because I had flu, but don’t worry, I’ll bitch about that in tomorrow’s catch up. I thought I would furnish you with a list of my favourite blogs. I find it a bit tricky to find […]
For Truly Terrible Colds, or Other Times Everything Is Wrong
First, find a lemon. If a wrinkled up, sad little one that’s been sitting on the kitchen windowsill is all you have, then use that. Try to be more optimistic. Select your mug. I chose my husband’s superhero mug. Pow! It’ll be fine, really. Roll your lemon on the worktop and then chop it in […]
Facing Friday – I’m Fricking Thirty
Hello team, and welcome to my 30’s! Expect me to get wise AF from now on. Pretty sure that’s how that works. I read Nothing! Sorry gang. I did three last week though, be fair. I saw As part of a wonderful Birthday Treat Weekend, Paul took me to see Richard Herring’s new show Happy […]
Facing Friday – Back with a Bang
I AM BACK properly now. Did you miss me? What? NO? Get out. Anyway. As regular readers will know, I recently got married. It looked like this – And made me feel like this – I’ve already done my gushy marriage post and there is a lot more content to come on this, so I […]
Facing Friday – A Week Off
I’m on honeymoon! No time to write an amusing round up of the week’s activities – this plate of cheese isn’t going to eat itself. Instead, a selection of photos of my new husband, drinking.
Traditions
Really, I’m getting married today. But technically/legally, we did it on Thursday. I didn’t think it would mean that much, the legal bit. It’s just a formality, we didn’t get to make up our own vows, we only invited four people. But I was wrong. The ceremony was beautiful, and much more moving than I’d […]
