17/02/21 – Wise words

I’m currently reading Anne Frank’s diary and it’s such an incredible book. She’s a insightful writer, especially so for such a young age. I thought it would be a bit of a slog to get through but I’m finding myself flying through it by reading at every single moment of free time I have asContinue reading “17/02/21 – Wise words”

07/12/20 – Wise words

I had an awful morning today. Over tired and emotional. I did get the chance to read some more of my book though, A Christmas Carol, and reached my most favourite quote from it (in the photo!) This evening I ran 2 miles to then go swimming with a friend and ran back home. ItContinue reading “07/12/20 – Wise words”

30/11/20 – Reading is wonderful

I’ve finished Harry Potter! I’m now spending the remainder of 2020 finishing off some of my heavier non-fiction books, then it’ll be a smattering of Christmas fictions to see me through to the new year. Reading is something that brings me so much joy. The sharing of ideas, stories and inspirations is a wonderful thingContinue reading “30/11/20 – Reading is wonderful”

29/11/20 – Dusk walk

Do you ever get so into finishing the last Harry Potter book you forget to update the daily blog you’ve had for nearly 10 years? Yeah, me neither… Today Nic and I had a very chilled day. I mostly read Harry Potter and then we went for a chilly walk to the shop before closedContinue reading “29/11/20 – Dusk walk”

28/11/20 – Wholesome day

I got lots done today, with most of it not involving technology which is a nice change! It started out with an early morning walk with my friend Fae and her dog. Then Nic met me for a bit of additional walking which was lovely. Once home I did some sewing for about four hoursContinue reading “28/11/20 – Wholesome day”

26/11/20 – Here it comes…

On a very cold and quiet evening walk tonight with Nic we saw the beginnings of Christmas in our local area! It’s made me feel really happy. I love this time of year seeing more and more trees and lights popping up! I’ve also just finished the sixth Harry Potter book! What an emotional journeyContinue reading “26/11/20 – Here it comes…”

14/11/20 – Lockdown escapism

I’m still absolutely loving rereading Harry Potter as a bit of lockdown escapism. Three weeks later and I’m up at 1am as I finish the 5th book like it’s 2003… I just can’t get enough of them! I think it took me about three months to finish the series last time I read them, I’veContinue reading “14/11/20 – Lockdown escapism”

01/11/20 – Onto the next!

Oh look, another Harry Potter book photo… But it’s now day seven and I’m onto the fourth book and it’s the first beefy one of the series! Today was a day in for me and Nic and it was super lovely, we chilled out, made pasta sauce and just had a really lovely day shieldingContinue reading “01/11/20 – Onto the next!”

08/10/20 – Always time to read

I got up at 6.45 this morning to chat with my best friend that lives in the Philippines. It was 2pm for her, so worked out perfectly, as she starts work at 3pm. I cannot tell you how lovely it was to spend my early morning catching up with her. After that I had halfContinue reading “08/10/20 – Always time to read”
