October has been a super busy month. My motto this month has kind of been "work hard, play hard", as I realise that, sometimes, we can be unhappy not because we are doing too many things we don't like, but because we aren't doing enough of what we do like. I realised that when I [...]
September rolled round quickly, how are we in Autumn already? It's almost Christmas now! It appears that this month has been one of creativity, creation, food, cosy drinks, and nature for me. With baking and music too, it's as if September was an old school month of entertainment. I have tried to actively stay present [...]

The month started like any other, with plans and ideas flowing. But then, as everyone is well aware, things stopped pretty abruptly. The [...]
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 [...]
