So it's been my first full week working from home and just being at home. The previous week I don't feel really counts as I was in Bristol for some of that time. So how did my first full week go? Not too bad. Not as great as I expected, and there was definitely some [...]
So the world is going through a pandemic and people are worried, anxious, panicking, or burying their heads in the sand. In the UK we have passed the containment phase and moved into the delay phase.

Happy International Women's Day!

I have found in this festive, yet potentially stressful and lonely, month that the same situations and scenarios appeared as last year. But this year I haven't been as stressed or as quick to anger or become annoyed. I'm not sure if this easier-going me has been down to this gratitude journal or general going-with-the [...]
