Reading a whole book in 2 sittings when you've been unable to concentrate on a book in ages. Christmas presents in the post. Wrapping (despite the fact I hate it) well co-ordinated presents. Watching Drag Race and cutting out. Voices of Fire. Being able to use something time and time again because it works. Watching … Continue reading Happy times!

Happy things…
I used to regularly do happy things posts, but 2020 happened and I stopped reflecting on the things that make me smile and keep me going. (I've just looked and the last time I did one of these posts was in May... so yeah, a WHILE!) Today then, I am bringing back the happy post! … Continue reading Happy things…
Running: 6 months on!
According to past me, who put an alert in my phone, today marks 6 months of me running. This might not seem like a big thing, but for me it's pretty massive! It's no surprise to anyone that running was not a thing I ever saw in my life/future, but right now, as I write … Continue reading Running: 6 months on!
The Bank Holiday Book Tag
Hello everyone! Happy bank holiday Monday! What plans do you all have today? I think I'm going to go for a run and then I need to pop to the shops and get a few bits and bobs... but apart from that I think the day needs to be dedicated to doing VERY LITTLE. This … Continue reading The Bank Holiday Book Tag
Tales of a runner… #2
Morning everyone! Back in May, I posted THIS blog post all about my journey into running, and I figured we're a few months down the line, it might be nice to update everyone on how I'm doing/if it's stuck/what I'm doing with my running legs now. For anyone who hasn't read the blog post (or … Continue reading Tales of a runner… #2
The things I miss…
It's funny, I'm quite a solitary person. I'm not normally one to need other people around me. I'm quite happy with my own company. I'm more than happy to spend time by myself in a coffee shop planning school work, doing blogging stuff or reading. But I guess when your hand is forced, it really … Continue reading The things I miss…
Tales of a (not so) runner…
Never in my life did I even consider myself a runner... I guess lockdown changes all sorts! I don't want this blog post to be like a "oh my god look at me and what I'm doing" blog post, nor do I want it to be a "this is how you do it" post cause … Continue reading Tales of a (not so) runner…
What’s keeping you going?
Hello! So here we go: week 3 of lockdown. As I write this, we haven't had any updates on how long lockdown will be lasting, but I don't see it being over any time soon, and I certainly don't think my life will be going back to normal any time soon. I have days when … Continue reading What’s keeping you going?
Half term wins
Half term wins... Reading an awful lot of books. Going to London. Receving a proof I never thought I'd own. Sending messages to friends. Having a working date and actually being productive. Spending time with a twiglet and a Joey. Having many many delicious breakfasts. Being productive. Doing something I'm really proud of. Geordie Gifts. … Continue reading Half term wins
Monday = Me day
Hello! I've decided that I'm going to make Monday a "me" post day. By that I don't mean I'm going to be posting all about me... but it's not necessarily going to be a bookish day: it might be about school, about my life, about my MH: it'll be something personal, not necessarily bookish. It … Continue reading Monday = Me day
