My Favourite Season
By far, autumn (or fall) is my favourite season. It always has been, and it has never faded. The reason? Best summed up in this photo – the beautiful colours that nature producers as it’s preparing to go to sleep for a while. There are so many things I love…

Living a Good Life – Love. And Coffee
Interesting prompt…the most important ‘things’ needed to live a good life. So much, for me, to unpack in this! So, what is a good life first of all? You can’t know what the most important things are if you can’t define what is a good life. I feel that it’s…

Who I Spend The Most Time With
I spend most of my time with me. Because I spend all of my time with me. And I have discovered that listening to what I have to say to me is incredibly important. As is being comfortable with spending time with me. As always, when I first saw this…

The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe
Without a shadow of a doubt, my favourite book as a child was The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe. Yes, I loved the Heidi Chronicles but I barely remember what they are about. I also loved lots of other books at the time but, again, my memory of them…

The Jobs I Have Had
I started work, believe it or not, when I was 11 years old, and since then I have had a vast array of jobs across a wide range of sectors. In each and every one, I have learned valuable lessons. At age 11, I decided I wanted more pocket money…

How I Unplug
I have written before that I find relaxing difficult, and I am known to push myself to burnout which is something I absolutely do NOT recommend. At all. I am, though, trying to make more of a concerted effort to ‘unplug’, to recognise the signs that I need to and…
