Balance, it’s so fecking difficult (Day 83)

I went to bed and nearly forgot to write today’s post. Oops! Thing is, it’s late and I’ve to get up early tomorrow, extra early since the clocks go forward tonight. I’m not going to write a proper scribble today, it’ll be a kind of day off. I’m still more or less of sugar (I […]

Feeling tired and uninspired but still off coffee and sugar (Day 82)

I just discovered that I never posted yesterday’s scribble.  Oops! I wrote it all up and then left it, planning on adding a photo from my phone later, as I often do.  Only apparently I completely forgot about it.  I’ve shared it now so today will be a double whammy of blog posts. Hooray! To […]

Mini-Scribble (Day 80)

All day long I’ve had a headache, at work I literally felt like I was living in a fog and struggled to focus on orders. I came home early and climbed into bed with a feeling of sweet relief and slept (until the dogs woke me with a barking like lunatics). Since then I’ve been […]

A Food Wake-up Call (Day 79)

Today was interesting: I started my morning with a scone and a large strong coffee before work and on arriving to the restaurant, felt slightly out of sorts; agitated, anxious, jittery, uneasy.  It was subtle, if anyone were to see me or talk to me, I would have been just fine, but it didn’t feel […]

Shopaholics Anonymous (Day 78)

“The last thing I feel like doing right now is writing a daily scribble.” It’s ridiculous how many times I’ve started one of these scribbles with those words or else wanted to…  I really should write them earlier in the day.  I even had time to do it this morning but I read the Sunday […]

Pajama-Day Sunday (Day 77)

So much for getting some of my daily scribbles done in the morning this weekend.  Today’s Sunday and once again it’s around 9 pm as I begin. Today was a funny old day, I thought I’d head out early in the morning for a coffee and breakfast, since I hadn’t done it for ages and […]

Paddy’s Day, Shopping and Pasta (Day 76)

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Tis the day to be Irish the world over.  I remember being in Paris back in 2003 on Paddy’s Day, the Irish Pubs were so packed and wild you could barely get into them. Sometimes I think it’s more fun to be abroad to celebrate the day.  When you’re here it […]

One of these days I’m gonna turn into a cheese toastie (Day 75)

It’s incredible the difference taking action can make. I was feeling so crap most of the day, overwhelmed by how far I’ve yet to go with building our business, looking at all the stuff people online in our creative business group are doing, feeling like they’re all miles ahead of me and far more productive. […]

Chocolate cake, chocolate boys, chocolate… books? (Day 74)

Lately I always seem to do my daily scribble at the end of a long day and as a result, I’m usually tired and uninspired. Today is no different, given I woke at 6 am so I could drop Alex into town to catch a bus to Dublin, worked a full day in the restaurant […]

Amateur Photographer turns pro… (Day 73)

I don’t think I have a creative idea left in my body at this point.  I’ve spent around 3 hours staring intensely at my phone editing photos.  To be fair, the photos are pretty damn awesome.  No exaggeration, yes I’m bragging, no I don’t care. I recently discovered a few tricks with my photo-editing App […]
