  • Mundane – May, Myself And I #20

    May 20: Mundane One of my favourite quotes at the moment is: Celebrate the mundane I don’t know where I first saw it (it was probably Pinterest) but I haven’t stopped thinking about it since.

    May 8: Pranks I think pranks are horrible – I really don’t like them.

    This is the second part of this mini-series. To see part one, the backstory, click here. As I am writing this I am still unemployed. I have been out of work now for just over a month and this time has certainly had it’s ups and its downs. I wasn’t sure if I’d even get Read more

  • Top Seven Books of 2017

    According to this list I made on my phone, I read 43 books this year. That’s insane! The majority of them were rereads and, I’ll be honest, I did abandon a couple – but as someone who loves books an ridiculous amount this makes me so happy. Anyway, because this was the first year I Read more
