Taking a break

I am currently in the process of moving house, and I admit that I may have underestimated just how much packing is involved! Plus the amount of admin that goes into moving properties, needless to say my brain is feeling very mushy at the moment. I am therefore going to take a little break from … Continue reading Taking a break

Sunday Musings

How do you waste the most time every day? Doom scrolling. Sometimes a little doom scroll is needed after a work day, where I don't want to have to think for just 5 minutes to relax a little bit.
