Oh, this year so far. What a mess. Least said, the better. Thank goodness for dogs, books and TV. Speaking of, here be dog. Interrupting the reading bit. She’s lucky I like her. 😄 Not that anybody is going to care after that cuteness overload but, on to the books! | BOOKS I READ IN…
Why are the months flying by so fast?! Slow down, Father Time! FFS! So, July. Things at the other half’s job went from worse to much-much worse and he handed in his notice at the start of the month. If all goes well he will be signing a contract with another company this week and…
June. Ugh. Between a very busy auction week at the other half’s job and a business trip by that same other half, I spent quite a lot of the month alone. Then the other half very kindly brought back a gift from his trip in the form of a very bad cold and awful throat…
May didn’t quite turn out the way we had expected. The other half had two weeks off work and we had some plans. Nothing set in stone but still. The weather promised to be brilliantly sunny and warm, which it was, and we considered a day or two by the seaside. Introducing Millie to sand…
Does anyone even understand how it is May already? April was just doing its thing, being all chill. We had some lovely sunshine-y days, did some pottering in the garden (my neighbours keep removing trees so I keep adding them 💁🏼♀️), read a little, nothing of much importance. Then the final week, my MIL decided…
According to the calendar it is April and I have no idea how that happened. A few days ago, we were sitting outside in the glorious sunshine with short sleeves. Today, however, as I type this, it’s snowing. WTF. Clearly Mother Nature suffers from hormonal moods as well. And unfortunately, the war in Ukraine rages…
My goodness, for a short month February seems to have lasted an eternity! I considered not doing this wrap-up. Hence why it’s late. Again. Everything just seems so trivial at the moment, with what’s happening in Ukraine. But, like me, maybe you too are increasingly turning to books to escape reality. Even if it’s just…
I honestly don’t understand how people are saying January lasts an eternity. I feel like I only had people over for Christmas last week and yet, here we are in February (since I’m posting this update late, as per usual). I was going to do a whole thing about last year but really, that all…
Hello, hi! Still alive! Sorry to disappoint you 😉 Time to say goodbye to September. A long, long, really long month. Did I mention long? A month not spent in my beloved Tuscany but at home where Summer was extremely hormonal and there was no peace or quiet to be found. A whole month, THIRTY…
And another month bites the dust. As seems to be the norm lately, I have no idea where this one went or what I did. I just know it was all over in the blink of an eye. We are still under some kind of lockdown although the specifics escape me because I stopped paying…
