Daily writing promptWhat is your mission?View all responses Last year was a rough year, where I did question the above quite a lot. As sometimes happens in life, I got a bit lost in the chaos of life and it has taken me quite a while to come back to this one question. It seems … Continue reading Sunday Musings

Happy New year!

Happy New year everyone! Goodness me was 2025 a bit of a rough year. A lot of big things happened, but not all of them were good, and as a result I completely lost myself in the chaos for a while. I am hoping that 2026 is going to be far calmer a year, and … Continue reading Happy New year!

Sunday Musings

How do you manage screen time for yourself? Terribly. I spend at least 8-9 hours of the work day stating at The Bad Screen (my work computer). This one is completely unavoidable, and I absolutely cannot stop this, no matter how much I may want to some days! I will then spend most of the … Continue reading Sunday Musings

Floof Friday

I am slowly working on my garden space, and as it is winter I have finally put in place a proper bird feeder. And I finally caught a guest! This little robin stopped by for a little bite to eat, and for a little drink from the bird bath. I did not expect to feel … Continue reading Floof Friday

My time on a cruise boat

Apologies for the slight change in my posting schedule - I was on a boat! Well, a cruise ship to be exact and I doubt that it could really be called a boat. It had 18 floors! This holiday was so needed and I was cut off entirely from any sort of internet connection when … Continue reading My time on a cruise boat

What is the right to rescue?

She carried out this act with other members of the animal rights group, Direct Action Everywhere, whose members are routinely in court for carrying … Continue reading What is the right to rescue?

Daily writing promptHow much would you pay to go to the moon?View all responses Nothing. In fact, I don't think anyone could pay me enough to make me go to the moon. The bottom of the ocean however? I think if the opportunity ever presented itself, I would very much consider going to the bottom … Continue reading Sunday Musings

Floof Friday

My new area has so many new neighbours! We seem to have multiple groups of these birds, and I learnt that these are house sparrows. They are very chatty! I love waking up in the morning to hearing them chirping away in the surrounding bushes and trees. Males tend to have a grey cap, chestnut … Continue reading Floof Friday
