Breakfast time.

Breakfast? Seriously, I’m writing about breakfast, but hear me out, there’s more to this. You see I bang on about happiness and navigating your way through life to overcome obstacles and finding joy in the little things and well as we’ve sat this morning sipping our smoothies and chewing our bacon, it came to me.…

Having some fun.

Last week I wrote for the first time in awhile, I wrote about being Stuck in a funk and how I was feeling a bit randomly fed up for several reasons. A week on and I’m suddenly feeling much more myself and it’s not taken much at all. I think the main reason is that…

Stuck in a funk.

It’s been a funny year hasn’t it and I’ve not written for a long while. Why? Well because I’ve been very up and down recently and I’m not sure I’ve known how to process things. So here I am, back at my old faithful trying to work out how to get out of the funk…

It’s like a brick.

It’s coming up to 5 years, 5 years, whoa! 5 years since I sat next Poppa M holding his hand for the last time, watching and waiting as the machines turned off wishing and staring for his eyes to open in some kind of defiant miracle. It didn’t happen, we all knew it wasn’t going…

Full English.

“I was brought up white, but I’m brown” last night I went to the theatre for the first time since the pandemic closed them and watched an amazing piece. A piece created by people who I met as a result of networking and collaboration through work, though now I can safely say they are good…

The Dating Game.

Warning, this post is not for the faint hearted... I dumped yet another potential bachelor recently, or should I say I just let go, politely turned down and no longer contacted, I don’t think you can quite call it dumping when it’s never really got off the ground. Anyway, following it and a few people…

Father’s Day.

This day is a weird day for me. I feel like I should acknowledge it but also it feels like just another day because at the end of the day neither me nor little P have Dad’s. Then again though I do both roles and every year without fail she trots home from the childminder’s…

Take responsibility.

I was privy to a conversation this week about some friends worrying that one of the mates was going to get back involved with a guy who was no good for her. Now the chap is the one responsible for his actions and yes I was in agreement that he was wrong for treating the…

You are not a finished product.

I enjoy following James Smith PT, his podcasts are great (so is his hot bod...) I often listen to them whilst running. He talks a lot of sense and cuts to the chase, he gets straight to the point and tells it like it is. I read his books and blogs too and this morning…

Setting boundaries.

It’s taken me far too long to learn this lesson. There was a time when I would set a boundary, put a measure in place only to take it away again when I realised it upset the other person. Why? It’s a pointless and futile exercise and that’s really how people were able to walk…
