Week Forty-One

October 12, 2019December 29, 2019 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

This one's for my Mum and her sisters, my aunties. I love you all so much. The theme of 2019 has definitely been ups and downs. I've had months full of happy memories and positivity and other months that have been huge struggles. Whether it's been my mental health getting me down or things going … Continue reading Week Forty-One

Week Thirty-Six

September 8, 2019December 29, 2019 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

Oh heyyy! So, the house move has gone surprisingly smoothly for me. Especially considering my inability to accept change, close attachment to places and things and general emotional-ness. I was super emotional when we eventually said goodbye to the flat, but in my defence, it had been one of those weeks anyway and I was … Continue reading Week Thirty-Six

Week Thirty

July 28, 2019July 27, 2019 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

The BIG THREE O! How far we've come! And I don't just mean this year. In a few weeks time, we'll be moving out of this little flat and moving into a new home. This little place we've called home for two and a half years, will soon be someone else's home and we'll be … Continue reading Week Thirty

Week Four

January 27, 2019October 31, 2019 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

Week four of 2019 began, for all of us, with Blue Monday. On Blue Monday, I felt surprisingly yellow. I spent the tube journey smiling to myself like a fool. I was determined not to let the whole 'Blue Monday' label convince me that it was going to be a difficult day. After all, I did … Continue reading Week Four

Week Zero

December 29, 2018March 2, 2019 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

I'm curled up on the sofa at my parents' and I've spent the whole day in my PJs. The Christmas tree is twinkling and the living room is super cosy. It's odd isn't it? This week between Christmas and New Year. No-one knows which day of the week it is. Our New Year's resolutions don't … Continue reading Week Zero

Proud

February 7, 2018October 24, 2020 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

Another post already!? Can you believe it? I remember when I went through a phase of wishing and hoping and dreaming of my blog becoming a massive hit and me being given my own column in a hugely famous magazine. I went and read all these posts from other bloggers about how to gain a … Continue reading Proud

Mayhem

April 6, 2017May 17, 2022 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

Our living room is SUPER cosy now. Not only do we have the house plant and cactus and two sofas, but we now have lots of cushions, one that's particularly fluffy, and a rug and a coffee table. Right now, I'm sat with a Spotify playlist called 'The Stress Buster' playing, I have scented candles … Continue reading Mayhem

Mind over matter

March 20, 2017October 24, 2020 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

Recently, my beautiful cousin wrote a blog on mindfulness. (It's well worth a read and the link is at the bottom of this post. I've also included the link to a mindfulness meditation video which helped me heaps.) And I mention it because even more recently I discovered just how practicing mindfulness can help. In the … Continue reading Mind over matter

To New Beginnings

February 14, 2017October 23, 2020 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

This year was for being daring, right? I put an offer down on a flat with Dave, we got it, I handed in my notice at work, two weeks later we've got the keys and I'm moving to Watford! I'm moving into a new flat, in a new town and I'm going to be living … Continue reading To New Beginnings

8 Life Lessons I’ve learned from working two jobs

December 18, 2016February 14, 2017 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

Okay, I know I'm not an expert and I haven't been doing this two job thing very long at all BUT I'm feeling philosophical so humour me and let me put my life guru hat on just for this evening? One - Live in the moment. I'm sure you've heard it said before and believe me … Continue reading 8 Life Lessons I’ve learned from working two jobs

  • Birthday Butterflies
I’m 28 tomorrow. I’d fully intended to draft an inspiring and upbeat birthday post to publish in celebration. I LOVE my birthday and I couldn’t wait to write about how far I’ve come since I was 18 and about my hopes and dreams for the years ahead. Five Things I Wish I'd Known Before Getting Kittens. Five Things I Wish I'd Known Before Getting Kittens. Five Things I Wish I'd Known Before Getting Kittens. Five Things I Wish I'd Known Before Getting Kittens. Five Things I Wish I'd Known Before Getting Kittens. A wise person recently told me that I need to learn to love and embrace my butterflies. To feel the butterflies and decide to gratefully accept the reminder that I'm feeling anxious and gently look after myself, instead of trying to bat them away at the first sign of trouble. And I'm getting there. Hi. I’m Bronwen.
