It’s Harder than I Thought.

First of all I would like to start by saying that this is just a post to get some things off my chest and is in no way at all aimed at anyone in particular and I haven’t written it to make anyone feel any type of way at all. Anyone who has read my…

What Next?

With lockdown rules set to change across the UK within the coming weeks I have constantly found myself thinking "what next?". What will happen in these coming weeks or months or even years. I have admitted before that I am a constant over thinker so whack me in the middle of a global pandemic and…

Being OK

"How's things?" "You alright?" "How you doing?" These are all questions that we ask people at least once on a daily basis. Yet, I always think, how often do we actually want to know the answers. For instance, when I walk in to my local shop and Sheila behind the counter says "hiya, you alright?"…

Smile

Smiling is something that comes naturally to a human being. It’s a reflex that is within us from a very early age. When we were young most of us will have laughed and smiled for the majority of the day. Yet as we get older, we start to feel more and more self conscious of…

On My Mind Recently

It has been eight weeks since my Little Love arrived. Boy what an eight weeks it has been. The weeks since he has been here have simultaneously been the longest and quickest weeks of my life. Kind of the same as pregnancy I guess. My life seems to have become a constant blur of changing…

On Babies (or my lack of)

(From 12th January 2017) For the last few weeks I haven’t been 100% if I was going to post this blog. I’ve re-written it twice already and still don’t know what the point of it is or what I want from posting this. I have just been feeling more and more like I need to…

Growing Up

(From 25th October 2016) "It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are” – E.E. Cummings Well I really don’t know how many times over the past few months, yes months, I have written and re-written this post. Usually when writing a blog post I will have an idea in mind, take out…

Being Grateful

So there I am in hour 11 of 12.5 of my night shift yesterday morning when I happened to flick the music channel on in an attempt to find some good tunes to get me through breakfast time and the rest of the shift when I heard the familiar lyrics of The Black Eyed Peas- "Where is the…

The Little Things

So just finished a nightshift and feel really crappy, tired, overly emotional and very short tempered, so to try and aid myself to feel better I've been trying to think of all the little things in life that make me happy. Especially after an awfully long 12 and a half hour shift. People always say…

On Sunshine

Well where to start, other than, I love sunshine. When the weather is bright and sunny ( it doesn't even have to be warm necessarily) the world just seems to be a better place. I woke up this morning with the worry of today being just the same a yesterday. A typical rainy dreary day…
