August started with a hair cut; not an overly dramatic hair cut, but one that feels like it has some significance all the same. It was quite an impromptu decision, made on the way to the salon, but sometimes I find that just an act of change is enough for a much-needed boost – a… Continue reading A mid month catch up: August
Why hello there pals, and how wonderful of you to be here. How are we all? I’m currently in bed, two crumpets with marmite down and hoping that the spider I can see in the corner doesn’t scuttle into my mouth while I’m asleep later. It’s a nice position to be in for tapping out… Continue reading A mid month catch up: July
It feels impossible to believe (and really quite embarrassing to admit) now, but as recently as a year ago the environmental impact of our collective fast fashion habit hadn’t even crossed my mind. I picked up new things regularly and with little thought; a lunchtime Primark trip here, a ‘pop in’ to H&M on the… Continue reading I’ve pledged to buy nothing new for three months and this is why
I appear to have missed the middle of the month again, but if we say that the days between 5th and 25th are the middle of the month in that they’re not strictly the start or end, then this is is fair game and I’m not late, right? June for me so far has been… Continue reading A mid month catch up: June
Great news, everyone: I’m yet to get a parking ticket or a passive aggressive note from my neighbours this month! That won’t make any sense unless you read my April edition of this post, which feels simultaneously very recently and a lifetime ago. I’m always quite fascinated by the different rates at which time feels… Continue reading A mid month catch up: May
I’ve written twice specifically about perfectionism before, referenced it many more times, had it creep into multiple blog posts in various other guises, and failed to write anything at all on account of it more than I can count, so I guess you could say it’s something of a defining feature of mine. For a while,… Continue reading Perfectionism and me: an update
The first of April was a Monday, which was supposed to be a very satisfying way for a month to begin. Let me tell you how mine went. I’d arrived at the gym after work and changed into exercise clothing, then promptly realised that I had forgotten something (look, you opted to read this, I… Continue reading A mid month catch up: April
Hola, amigos! My apologies – I’m not sure why I typed that, but it’s probably something to do with having spent most of March so far in a Spanish speaking country. I wasn’t actually sure I was going to do one of these posts this month, although at one point I had visions of myself… Continue reading A mid month catch up that’s not in the middle of the month: March
The passage of time is a very strange one, isn’t it? One month crawls, and the next breezes by before you’ve had a chance to register its passing. That is how I feel about the start of the year. January was slow – between 97 and 90538764 days long, according to the Instagram captions that… Continue reading A mid month catch up: February
Well hi there you lovely things! Welcome to my mid month catch up for January – or what could be looked at as my fourth post that isn’t really about anything in particular in a row. I’m not entirely convinced that that’s ideal, but the reason I started these monthly posts was to anchor myself… Continue reading A mid month catch up: January
