Happy Friday everyone, how has your week been? This month is proving to be full of wonderful exciting things, and even though the sun has left us for now, here in a grey wet Blackburn, I have a REALLY good feeling about all the things to come this Summer! So before I fall into the usual weather/time flying by so fast blog hole, here is what has been making me happy in the last fortnight!

Hello everyone, and happy Sunday! How are you? In all honesty I'm still in shock after the EU referendum result on Friday. In some ways it feels odd to be posting about anything other than that right now, but I'm still processing, as I think many of us are. And, life will continue. So as it is Sunday and I am a week late posting my 'loves' as it is, I thought putting this together could come as a happy distraction for all of us.

Happy Wednesday everyone! As I'm currently getting giddy about flying off to Lisbon tomorrow I thought I had better get around to actually sharing my photos from the trip to Brighton I took at the beginning of May!

While I was actually in Brighton for the fringe festival with work, the gorgeous weather and being joined by the Young Man definitely gave me that summer holiday feeling! Plus, I say it was work trip, but when your job is to go and see lots of theatre, it is never going to feel too much like work. Well, at least if you love theatre as much as I do it isn't! Anyway back to Brighton... 

Happy Monday everyone! How are you feeling at the beginning of a new week? I'm beginning to feel a bit more grounded and calm than I have done lately. As I mentioned in my post on Friday, while May was an amazing month for so many reasons, by the time 1st of June came around I was left feeling a little off track. When time zooms by, and you're out and about living your life, it can be much harder to keep track of things like long term goals, and the lifestyle you want to create for yourself.

Of course everyone has months like this, and being busy, socialising, and letting go are good for the soul, but for me, times like that can't last forever without me going into a little bit of a melt down. Maybe I'm a little bit of a control freak, and in many ways a bit of an introvert. I like my quiet time, I like looking at the bigger picture, and I like feeling like I know where I'm heading.

We're now half way through the year and so many things about this year have been wonderful, but I'm not sure I'm quite where I want to be with my own personal development. I don't think I've set monthly goals once this year and actually achieved them, and I daren't go back over my spring goals for fear of feeling like a failure. I am not a failure, living life, and paying attention to other things does not make you a failure in any way shape or form, and you shouldn't feel guilty for having a life, but sometimes now reaching a goal you've set yourself can make you feel that way.

However, if like me, you LIKE having goals, then every now and again it's a good idea to switch off from all those distractions and reconnect a little bit to your 'what.'

Guys it's a Monday and I'm actually managing to get a post up! Ok, ok, it isn't a Morning Monday post like the good old days, but it's a post. A post about Spring and goals, and generally being a bit high on motivation! Guess whose really let the blue skies and sunshine go to he head today?

Honestly though, I feel like all the motivation that has been missing over the last couple of months has decided to surge through my soul all at once! I stopped sharing monthly goal posts a while ago, something about them just felt a little short lived, a goal I make to achieve in a month, is either going to be so terribly mundane (eg. sort out my broadband) or actually take much longer than a month to truly be achieved (eg. become a health ninja), so when I saw Mimmi was writing seasonal goals, I thought that was an amazing idea. So amazing, I am, in no denial whatsoever about the fact that I am stealing it for myself!

Spring is definitely one of my favourite seasons, and I've been whinging a lot lately about being fed up of the winter blues, so it's really good to be looking forward, and planning to make sure I am where I want to be come summertime. So without further ado here are my Spring Goals...

Happy Sunday everyone! How are you? I'm having a super chilled out weekend... maybe a little too chilled out, in that despite having 48 hours all to my little self, I'm yet to do any of the things I said I would. Oh well there's still time!

I can't believe how quickly a month has passed since I posted my first 'Sunday Loves' post! But before I get into jabbering on too much about how quickly everything is going lately I'll just get on and share the products, shows, magazines and clothes I've been loving and coveting lately! OH and of course some of my favourite blog posts from you guys too!
