Happy Friday no.10...

Friday, 22 April 2016


Happy Friday everyone! How has your week been? It might just be the sunshine, but I feel like this week has flown by! Which makes you realise just how quickly the warmer months go, and just how much you should make the most of every sunny moment! Especially seen as how the weather is forecast to change again tomorrow. Typically just in time for the weekend!Apparently this is the first time ever it's looked likely to snow during the London Marathon, because ya'know, that thing isn't hard enough. 

Anyway enough weather chat for now! I've had a lovely fortnight since I last posted a happy list, so lots of things to celebrate! Here's what's been making me happy lately!


Happy Friday no.8...

Friday, 8 April 2016

Happy Friday everyone! How are you? How has your week been? This has been a good week, like a REALLY good week for me, sure some of the BIG stuff is still lingering unsolved, but in terms of the every day things, I've had a lot to smile about lately! Mid week adventures, meeting wonderful new ladies, getting bashed about in a bubble, flooding my instagram account with pictures of flowers, and finding that much missed motivation. Here is what has made me happy this week...

Taking stock... March...

Friday, 1 April 2016



Hi everyone! And happy April Fools! I am SO happy to see the beginning of a new month, but then I said the same thing about March...

I had such high hopes for March, and I'd be lying if I said that it had lived up to them. Not that it has been all doom and gloom. March hasn't been all of anything, it has been a bit of absolutely everything. As I've not posted half as much as I wanted to in March, and to go into any sort of detail in one go, would be an incredibly long, probably quite boring post, I thought I'd do a taking stock post instead. I've never posted one of these lists before but I always enjoy reading other peoples monthly posts, and all of these "ings" just about do justice to what's bin going on inside of this nogging of mine! So without further ado, here's what I've been doing, feeling, and thinking this month...

Happy Friday #5 & a Catch Up...

Friday, 30 October 2015


Happy Friday everyone! How are you? This has been a long week right? Normally when life is as full as it has been lately I feel like the weeks pass in a blink of an eye, but not lately. This is probably because at the moment I'm going through a period of adjustment, my usual weekly routines, both at work and at home, have been thrown up in the air, and I'm still waiting to see what order they land in. 

One of those routines has been blogging, but also, eating properly, sleeping normal hours (which I guess has never really been a routine) and having real weekends. I'm not complaining too much though, while I might not feel like the best version of myself, I am enjoying this phase of change. Sometimes you need those routines to be shook up a little bit so that you can create new ones and go about them with a whole new energy, and that's what I'm going to dedicate this weeks happy list too, those moments that I've managed to steal, scrape and squish in, that have not only kept me sane, but also made me feel like I could get used to this upheaval after all...

Happy Friday #3...

Friday, 2 October 2015


Happy Friday everyone! How are you? So guess what happens when you only post a happy list every fortnight? You accumulate a TON of stuff to smile about that's flipping what! Is it just me or have the last two weeks utterly flown by? Sometimes it feels like all these moments pile up on top of one another and while you're in it, and loving it, you're also not really appreciating it, and a bit scared that some things will pass you by unnoticed. Then, as a blogger and writer, there are other times when I feel like I spend so much time documenting what has happened, that I am also missing out on other things that are currently happening. Maybe I should just appreciate that I am lucky enough to have a life full of moments that are worth appreciating and capture as many of them as I can. Speaking of which on to the happy list...

Happy Friday #2... 50 happy things...

Friday, 18 September 2015


Happy Friday everyone! How has your week been? So it is only my second 'Happy Friday' post and already I am changing bending the rules a bit! But with good reason! I was tagged by the wonderful Sarah from Daydreams of Summertime (who I am excited to see on Sunday!) to list 50 things that make me happy, and I thought when better to share this than on a Friday? It was so lovely putting this list together, it reminded me how it's the smallest of things that can make you happy, but that so rarely we make the time for! Hopefully this inspires you to carve out a happy moment in your weekend!

Happy Friday #1...

Friday, 4 September 2015



Hi everyone, and happy Friday! How has your week been? My working week was short and sweet, much like they were for rest of summer, but as lovely as having some down time has been, I am actually looking forward to getting stuck back in with work properly now!

Now that we're on the edge of Autumn and on Wednesday I posted the last of my summer scenes I didn't want to let the happy sunshine vibes finish with them, so I've decided to start a happy list series. I always love reading other peoples 'good things' posts, and I have had posted similar style lists in the past but I've never kept to any routine with it! So I thought now that my new blog design is all finished, and all the kinks are ironed out it was the perfect time to rectify this, and make sure that every other Friday I make some time to appreciate the moments that have made me happy. So without further ado, here is this weeks list...
