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…

Weekend in Borgue

(From 9th October 2016) This weekend I went to Borgue in Kirkcudbright, Dumfries and Galloway. It is my mother in laws birthday soon so her and I and a bunch of friends, 13 of us in total, went on a girls weekend away. I had never heard of Borgue before, despite the fact that it…

(From 16th October 2016) Three years ago today my friend came home from work and told me and husband (who was my fiancé at the time) that a mutual friend of ours was looking to re-home her puppy. Now we had been discussing getting a dog in the previous few weeks but had decided that…

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…

On Holiday

I have recently arrived back home after a ten day holiday to Marmaris in Turkey and boy what an amazing holiday. Part of the reason for said holiday was that it was my husbands gran and papas 50th wedding anniversary and they live out in turkey so what better excuse for a party and a…

On a Thursday

I would like to be able to say that seeing as this is my first post that i am a very profound intellectual person and all my blogs will be interesting and inspiring. I am not and they probably will not... I am 22 year old wife and dog mum (sorry for those who hate…
