A scribble a day makes me a writer hooray! Short, snappy daily musings on things that matter and even sometimes on things that don’t, every day of 2018. They do not need to be elegant masterpieces (the odd one may be, most I suspect won’t) but I will endeavour always to create something worthy of both my efforts and the reader’s time.
It’s official: this is the first cranky daily scribble. There have been a few slightly ‘out of sorts’ scribbles and one where I was feeling sad, but this is the first where I’m feeling truly waspish. Everything bothers me, from the dirty messy house to my sweet loving husband, especially his constant questions as to […]
Another day, another scribble (insert winky emoji). No wait, don’t, this isn’t Social Media and I can express myself just fine with my native English language. NO EMOJIS! So a good kind lady (aka Mammy) commented on yesterday’s post that I had confounded her (it happens regularly); to paraphrase her, one minute I was raving […]

I can barely shower everyday, never mind writing, which is a lot trickier than rinse, lather, rinse, towel dry.

I assume that you’ve been locked up your entire life and just released now and find yourself reading this. Otherwise… well, there is no otherwise you crazy fool, just go already). […]
What is it with the trend these days of selfies, of documenting every single aspect of your life on social media, from what you ate for breakfast to what you’re wearing to your current mood… Isn’t it weird? I understand how it makes special stories out of the mundane – if you’ve ever watched a […]
A new year is a new start, isn’t it? A time to get stuck into projects and plans and ideas. I have an idea for 2018 and in fact, you’re reading it right now; a little project that’s been inspired by a friend of mine who has her own You-tube channel. She posts simple home […]
I was sleepy and bleary eyed this morning, reluctantly dragging my ass out of bed at 7.45 am when I needed to leave for work by 8.20 am. I’m a pretty minimal kinda girl though, most days I don’t even brush my hair, throwing it straight up in a messy bun:
