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 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 One

January 6, 2019December 9, 2021 ~ bronwensamantha ~ Leave a comment

I hoped I'd be writing this at 3 o clock in the afternoon, curled up with a cuppa and feeling triumphant. Instead, it's quarter to eight, dinner is nearly ready (thank goodness) and I'm completely and utterly cream crackered. We left the flat at 8am yesterday morning, Ikea bound. We were there when it opened … Continue reading Week One

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

Another year older

May 30, 2018October 24, 2020 ~ bronwensamantha ~ 2 Comments

I'M FEELIN' 24. And 'what does 24 feel like?' you might ask. Well, I guess I actually do feel a little older. If I really think about it, I realise that even in the last week or so I've done many things a younger me would have been too scared to do. Silly things like … Continue reading Another year older

  • 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.
