Happy Fox and Vegetarian Sushi (Day 108)

It’s 11.20 pm as I begin today’s scribble.  Today has been a good day, a real good day and that’s kind of funny because it started off crap. I went into work, opened up the restaurant, went through the daily motions of breakfast and lunch, and all the while felt mopey and depressed, mainly because […]

Smelly car, sore muscles and the holiday count-down begins… (Day 107)

Another day, another scribble. The car still stinks even though we’e tried several tricks including scrubbing with soap and covering it in baking soda.  I think the milk spilled in the gap beside the handbrake, i.e. my car is going to make me empty-retch every time I get into it for the next twelve months. […]

Bem vindo a Portugal! (Day 106)

It’s official!  I’m going on holidays in June: WHOOP WHOOP! I’m off to the soft sunny sands of southern Portugal, the stunning Algarve coast. And I can’t wait. I realized my big problem was a terrible form of indecision. I hate saying no to possibility, to opportunities.  Even now, as I see a documentary on […]

Yoga saves the day… and my sanity! (Day 105)

Today was a long tiring day.  But a pretty productive one. I woke around eight am and after much annoying insistence from himself, threw on a hoodie and some sweat-pants and walked to the local garage, bleary-eyed and puffy-faced, to buy his precious milk as there was none in the house for even a cup […]

Crying Over Spilled Milk… Literally. (Day 104)

There’s an old saying, it’s quite famous and you’ve probably heard it before.  You know the one that goes: “there’s no point crying over spilled milk” But I think there is a point, like when it makes your car smell like vomit even after spending an hour vigorously scrubbing the floor and mats and all around […]

Super Short Scribble (Day 103)

I’m so tired yesterday and today I wonder if I’m fighting off a bug.  I literally have no urge to do anything more than curl up in a ball and watch movies. I don’t feel very inspired to write anything fun or interesting tonight.  I don’t feel like writing at all. Is it mean and […]

Confused and Random (Day 102)

I feel a tad embarrassed about yesterday’s blog-post, that I forgot it completely.  First time in three months that’s happened. It’s interesting that I’m writing these daily scribbles continuously for so long.  I’d love to find a specific topic that I could write about everyday, rather than just random thoughts or actions of the day. […]

(Day 101)

It’s funny, I was all proud on reaching 100 days of my daily scribbles yesterday… and then forgot to post it. And today? I’m lying in bed about to go to sleep having just realized I never even wrote today’s scribble, I’m literally typing this on my phone. As such, this scribble is gonna be […]

Writing Every Damn Day (Day 100)

Now there’s a mile-stone: one hundred days of blogging every single day. Impressive! You know what else is impressive?!  I managed to upload five new earrings onto our Caraliza Jewellery website today (and there’s a handy little link for you to go check them out!). I’m delighted because I worked damn hard two weeks ago to […]

Europe I Heart You (Day 99)

Yeah I’m definitely not a man anymore, I just spent ten minutes crying because I wanted to book a holiday in Rome and couldn’t make up my mind about accommodation; if that’s not “crazy hormonal lady” back in the driving seat then maybe I’m just plain crazy at this stage. The thing is, I love […]
