Good morning and happy Monday. What happened to the weekend? I hope that whoever takes the time to read what I suspect will turn into a strange combination of exercise bike, interval run, and life-related ramblings, had an amazing weekend. My weekend had one highlight; volunteering at the Birmingham Running Festival in Sutton Park. Catching up with some of the local parkrun community made the…
I hope that you are enjoying the Early May Bank Holiday weekend. Although it’s a shame the weather in Four Oaks has been a bit cold and wet, after a dry April, we did need a spot of rain. Sorry, I switched back into work mode for a couple of seconds then! I can’t believe it’s May, that my birthday has been and gone, and…
I’d like to start by saying good morning, afternoon, evening, etc. I hope that you are staying safe and well. Although some of the lockdown restrictions have eased, my life doesn’t feel that different. I’m still working from home and was recently informed I’d probably be working from home for the rest of 2021. I realise that I’m incredibly fortunate to be able to work…
Happy April Fool’s Day. I hope that everyone is having a great week. I started a new job today so when this blog is (hopefully) published, I suspect that I’ll be trying to get access to all the new IT systems and local folders I need. Wish me luck. Despite the lockdown, it feels like the first three months of the year have flown by.…
It’s been over six months since I shared a personal catch-up post, so I thought it was time for an update. When I shared my last life lately post in August, I was in what I described as a good place and I felt like I was finally starting to get my shot together. As my last life lately post turned into a bit of…
Happy Friday!! I hope that whoever reads my latest selection of mini book reviews is keeping well and staying safe etc. I must admit that these last few weeks I’ve been seriously lacking in blogging mojo. After spending most of my weekdays staring at a computer screen, the last thing I’ve felt like doing is spending more time staring at my laptop. Since the start…
I hope that everyone had a great weekend. I don’t want to wish my life away, but I’m so pleased that January and February are now done and dusted. Despite the seemingly never-ending lockdown, it feels like the first two months of the year flew by. I guess that having a busy full-time job helps and a slightly unhealthy obsession with Netflix helps. If you…
I hope that everyone had a great weekend. Happy February 1st! Despite the lockdown, it feels like January flew by. I’m so thankful I have a demanding full-time job and that I’m able to work from home. If you read the three personal challenge posts I published at the beginning of last month, you’ll already be aware that I set myself some money-saving challenges for…
Good morning and TGIF! I hope that whoever reads this blog has had a great week. I can’t wait to share some amazing news with you all. I just need to wait for the paperwork to appear in my work inbox. In a break from my personal challenge and goals posts, I thought I’d share a press release the Fix Events team sent me last…
If you haven’t read my previous personal challenge posts, Happy New Year. I’m going to sound incredibly selfish, but I hope that 2021 is a more injury-free year for me. I also hope that 2021 starts to resemble some sort of normality sooner rather than later. I don’t think I can cope with living alone and working from home for much longer. I’ve reviewed last year…
