So the Gratitude Journal is still going strong, though I must admit that I did miss a couple of days this month, mainly because I've been going to bed a lot later than usual. Reading back on the days it seems I've been doing a lot of research into properties and general areas and feeling [...]

Hair today, gone tomorrow
Hair today, gone tomorrow. So I finally did it: I chopped it all off! It, of course, being my hair; and it was 32 months in the making. Yes, I have not cut my hair in well over 2 years and it was getting, naturally, rather difficult to manage. But I powered through to grow [...]

I must admit, for a couple of nights this month I did forget to have a moment of gratitude and write in my gratitude journal. This meant the next day was an extra long moment of gratitude, thinking of both the current day and the previous day. I also realise, reading back on this, how [...]
