Once upon a time, you'd find me at the bar questioning my life choices. Nowadays, I’m in the hardware shop questioning why all my money is spent on sanding blocks and door knobs. I recently moved in to a new house with my husband. If I’m not frantically battling the steam mop, I’m trawling through… Continue reading What a tool

Hitched
Thanks to society, there's a stigma that women need to achieve everything by the age of 30. *Cue universal uproar*. Thanks to this ridiculousness, women have adopted a Pankhurst-inspired energy to embrace life when things don’t work out by this grand old age. Like me, for example who rebelled against this 'achieving everything' malarky by… Continue reading Hitched
Stripped
The other day my partner and I went upstairs for a screw. NO - it's not what you're thinking. It's far sexier than that. I'm referring to assembling flat pack furniture (wahoo!).

If, like me, you wore dental braces through school (complete with bushy hair and an oversized backpack), you'll remember the pain well. So, I was disappointed to… Continue reading Brace Face
Stairway to A&E
Thanks to the global pandemic, we live by one rule - stay at home and watch Netflix (in your pj's and eat all the snacks). So it goes without saying that we shouldn’t put ourselves in situations where we might need to go to hospital. To be fair, Covid or no Covid, that's quite a… Continue reading Stairway to A&E
All Grown Up (ish)
There's nothing like a social media 'engagement' post to really put you off the Internet. But there's nothing like being the one who posted it (guilty). Having spent all of Christmas Eve in my pyjamas, I was intrigued to notice my boyfriend put on his best (and only) shirt for the evening. In a bid… Continue reading All Grown Up (ish)
