Well hey-ho, it’s that time of the month again. For once, I haven’t been on a hysterical emotional roller-coaster. I got very grumpy a few days ago when trying to write an article that was impossibly difficult, but aside from wanting to tear my hair out that afternoon, I’ve been pretty emotionally-balanced and calm these […]
Nearly 100 days with these daily scribbles. I’m impressed with myself! Tonight I planned things wrong because I came home from work and did a few jobs that I didn’t necessarily need to do, but didn’t do the two I did need to do (this and uploading a specific piece to the website that some […]
I’m so bold. I just realized I never posted yesterday’s scribble, though I had it written and ready to go (besides adding a photo) by 7 pm last night. Oops. It’s a funny thing, but if you read that post and see where I finished it and then check the title, you might think it’s […]
Not much to report here today. I just spent the last ten minutes literally rolling around on the floor with the three dogs which was highly entertaining. I spent the previous hour before that procrastinating mainly by eating crunchy nut cornflakes straight from the pack while watching youtube videos. It’s time to get some work […]
It’s not even 10 am and I’m writing today’s post. Yesterday was Easter Sunday, aka my relaxing day off, and it was a massive success. I did practically nothing all day. Nothing work-related at least. I woke around 9 am, made a peppermint tea, grabbed my Jodi Picoult novel and a chocolate Easter egg and […]
Happy Easter peeps! I’m quite sure that by the time you read this I’ll have scoffed several chocolate Easter eggs and be feeling quite ill (and ignoring how, in yesterday’s blog-post, I preached all about eating gently and mindfully). I’m doing this post super-early for once. I have a lot to get done these days, […]
Today I’ve realized (again!) how important it is to slow the bleep down, relax and take things slow and steady. Lately I feel like I’ve been in a whirlwind of Instagram and Facebook and computer screens and photo-editing and the general background electric hum of too much time on technology. It’s been good on the […]
Nearly three whole months of daily writing. It’s great, sometimes I put myself under a lot of pressure to get it done and to write something decent, but usually it’s a great way to practice my craft. At some point, I need to find a couple niche topics to hone in on and write more […]
I’ve left today’s daily scribble til late again so I’m not going to do a long complex post. I came home from work today (which by the way was twice as stressful as yesterday because we were busier and still not enough chefs and I had some dodgy moments with orders and customers waiting). From […]
It’s nearly 10:30 pm. I’ve been working solidly since I came home from… uh, work. Doh! I did a seven hour shift in the restaurant and it was busy. Not crazy want-to-cry busy, but annoying busy because the chefs were a man down and so I had to avoid some tables that were waiting ages […]
