It’s my birthday today, I’m 34. As a teen I dreaded getting old, I grew out of that though. I now think of it as a privilege to age. Many people don’t get that chance.

Social Media – Mission Withdraw
I wouldn’t quite say I’m addicted to social media, although it is (was) the first thing I do every morning after getting up. I don’t do it in bed like many of you, but that’s probably only because I can’t. Addiction is something you have to do everyday, it’s often the first thing you do… Continue reading Social Media – Mission Withdraw
If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musings #1
If we were having coffee I’d tell you mine is a latte. I know I’m generally a tea drinker, a tea addict some might say. But I do drink coffee too, only the proper kind that I can’t make at home. I’d tell you a cat is sitting on my desk right in front of… Continue reading If We Were Having Coffee – Life Musings #1
So I Want To Live In a Windmill
I know, I know, I’m in a wheelchair. It hasn’t slipped my mind. A windmill isn’t known for its great wheelchair access, those winding stairs would be a mission. It’s ok, I’ve got it all sussed.

The Ups And Downs of Reading, Books, Ebooks and Audiobooks – World Book Day

Along with national tea day, obviously. In my life both should be celebrated everyday. In… Continue reading The Ups And Downs of Reading, Books, Ebooks and Audiobooks – World Book Day

Compostable, Biodegradable, Favourite – Cinema City Norwich
Yesterday I went to my favourite cinema, to see The Favourite. A marmite of a film maybe, but then I love marmite. The costume, the crassness, the Colman, this cynical comedy had many c words. It wasn’t a crying with laughter film, but more of a snort along. Studying textiles, history and architecture at Art… Continue reading Compostable, Biodegradable, Favourite – Cinema City Norwich
Aims Accomplished – Aims Not Resolutions 2019
My first week of January 2019 has been spent colouring, followed by eating cheese and chocolate. Not together, although that is kind of nice too. I’ve had quite a chilled start to 2019 and that’s how I intend it to continue. Chilled adventure is what I would like to achieve. You might remember at the… Continue reading Aims Accomplished – Aims Not Resolutions 2019

So last December I attempted Blogmas, this year I haven’t a written thing. Sometimes you’re too busy doing life to write about it. But that can be a good thing.
