I’m tired and sleepy after pizza and wine so I really don’t want to sit down at this computer and write another post. Why everyday??? Why?! And yet, there does seem to be some part of me that has a teeny-tiny bit of indomitable willpower and that part of me has me here now, however reluctantly. […]
Today was another good day can you believe it! That’s three days in a row now; where did cranky, moody, restless, tired, depressed, crying Liz disappear to?! (Wherever it is, I hope she stays there!) I woke at nearly 9 am, quite late for me, having optimistically set my alarm for 8 am. However my […]
Today was another good day. Wonder Woman was around this time for sure – if I didn’t have a streak of her inside I’d never have survived the restaurant shift today. I’m currently so pooped I can barely drag one foot in front of the other. Fridays, ah Fridays… In every restaurant, there’s always one day […]
Today was a good day. Not that anything spectacular happened. I didn’t have a Wonder Woman day where I ran a marathon before work or drank a litre of wheat-grass juice for breakfast (eeeeeewwwww!). Nope, today I was a ‘last-minute, totally-average woman’. I just managed to squeeze in a deliciously hot shower before leaving the […]
I have great dreams about how to start my day well: wake early, meditate, journal, exercise, eat healthy breakfast, get shit done before work. No crappy food, no sleeping in and no needless worries about stuff I should be doing because hey, it’s only 9 am and I’ve done most of it already. Ah yes, […]
Dearest readers of Coffee and Scribbles, I need some assistance from you all. See, I’m doing a three-week course at the moment to help people with creative businesses and a question we had to answer on day one was why do we do what we do: why do I write and why do I want […]
I felt a bit down at work today, something along the lines of “Oh poor me, what did I do to deserve this cruel life” or some other nonsense (I think it’s the post-holiday-blues after our weekend away). I’m 34 years old however and at this stage, I’ve learned a few ways to bust yourself […]
We’re back home in cosy little Cork after our exciting adventures, tired and looking forward to sleeping in our own bed but also feeling a little unsettled. To be true, it’s been a year since I’ve been anywhere other than the quiet, gentle towns of Ireland’s south-west and I’m feeling delightfully stirred up by all the […]
It’s been a long looooong day and I am totally and utterly pooped. We walked our little feet off for six hours in the concrete jungle of Dublin city. In the pouring rain. With a crappy little umbrella that blew apart after five minutes (and there wasn’t even any wind!). 3FE was our first port […]
Today finds me writing from a sweet little Air B&B off Baggot Street in Dublin city. Alex and I are in the Big Shmoke for the weekend to attend a wholesale trade show… aaaand to have a mini holiday. I like this house. The soft lighting of the vintage bedside lamps and the palette of blush, […]
