Tweets from the Past
I used to be so good at recording a lot of the little moments that happened on a dedicated Twitter account but now Twitter is tarnished (thanks, Elon) I need to decide what to do with these so they don't get lost and decide if I continue or move to Threads/elsewhere. Here are just some… Continue reading Tweets from the Past
So this is love
Huddling under an umbrella in the rain tonight with Rich while we watched Austin's football practice, I thought, so this is love. And it really is. Love looks like hugs and kisses, home-cooked dinners, exciting adventures, a warm and welcoming home, thoughtful gestures, and telling jokes before bed. Love looks like making mistakes and saying… Continue reading So this is love
10 Films to Watch this Autumn
Some of these are new, some old favourites I watch most years and a couple of films that I am ready to watch again. You've Got Mail. One of my all-time favourite rom-coms. Watching Kathleen Kelly and Joe Fox fall in love in New York in the fall... just dreamy. 'Don't you love New York… Continue reading 10 Films to Watch this Autumn
Stalled but recharged
It's been a while. I have been muddled, unable to find words to articulate my thoughts in a way that serves me well. Say too much and it could cause problems. Say too little and it is annoyingly (and needlessly concerningly) cryptic. So I don't write. This weekend, though, Rich and I have enjoyed a… Continue reading Stalled but recharged
Five Things for Half Term
I am hitting this February half-term with mixed feelings. Whilst I am so glad for it to arrive, I am also wiped out and feeling somewhat anxious about the next few teaching weeks which are some of the most pressured of the year as we barrel towards the exams at an ever-increasing speed. Even so,… Continue reading Five Things for Half Term
Five Goals for February
I am not going to be writing every day on here but I do want to maintain a somewhat regular writing habit as I have really enjoyed engaging with my blog again and I hope you have enjoyed it too. When I started blogging way back in 2008, I use my blog as a memory-keeping… Continue reading Five Goals for February
Five Lovely Things about January
I welcomed the new year with my oldest dear friends as we all squished into our house for a New Year weekend of fun; I connected with friends for dinner, and coffee and I even managed to FaceTime with my brother! My word of the year has already made an impact. I made a list… Continue reading Five Lovely Things about January
Connecting with Friends
My intention to connect more with friends this year has started very well indeed. Today I was treated to lunch with a relatively new good friend - one of the mums from Austin’s class. We always have such great chats and have so much in the way of shared experiences, especially with our six/seven year… Continue reading Connecting with Friends
Weekend Ta-Dah
I have mentioned previously how I occasionally enjoy the process of writing a ta-dah! list as opposed to a to-do list. Instead of focusing on what I still need to do, it helps me to identify what I have actually managed to achieve. Here is some of my ta-dah! list for the weekend: Planned the… Continue reading Weekend Ta-Dah
