It's Sunday, the sun is shining and we've a roast dinner cooking away - nothing makes me happier than a day like this one. We've got family staying, I'm one beer down and I'm feeling more chilled than I have in ages. (Besides the football nerves of course - it's been a nervy couple of… Continue reading Thirty and Thriving 🙌

You May Never Really Find Yourself 🌸
Spring is in the air and I can gradually feel my energy levels rising. I'm sure I'm not alone. There's something about living longer days, seeing growing buds on trees and smelling freshly cut grass that just boosts those happy hormones...
Week Four: Celebrating Small Wins
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: Celebrating Small Wins
Week Zero
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?

And so the sun set on my teenage years
When one of my friends suggested we head to the beach the day before my birthday, I was excited, but I could not have imagined how beautiful it would be. I'd had an exam in the morning, so I spent the majority of the afternoon recovering in bed with a pizza. She picked me up… Continue reading And so the sun set on my teenage years
Realising I’m growing up
My room at home has been pink and fluffy for as long as I've lived in it. When we moved in I was seven and I was allowed to choose just how I wanted it decorated. As a result, the top halves of my walls are covered in pink wallpaper with stars on it, the… Continue reading Realising I’m growing up
