This time of year is generally the time of year I collapse with exhaustion [that's being dramatic, I basically just get really tired and want to hibernate] because I'm a workaholic. I mention this a lot and if you follow me on the social media's you're probably aware that I take on a lot of … Continue reading Overexerting myself

Summer Snail Mail
It's that time of year again; I don't think I've written any letters for over six months and I keep having that lil itch to pick up a well chosen pen, pick out some super cute stationary and start writing letters! Writing letters to folks is something I've always loved and I like how it's … Continue reading Summer Snail Mail
Pressing Flowers
I've recently picked up a very old hobby - flower pressing. It feels a little bit kismet that I have rekindled my love for this because I actually bought a friend a flower press earlier in the year and felt an urge to buy one myself. I didn't, though, because as I said in a … Continue reading Pressing Flowers
Into the gardens
You know I'm a sucker for Harrogate, right? I talk about it often enough, I think... Mostly because it's my dream place to live in the UK and, at some point, I'll be moving there [we're talking at least 5 years in the future but it's a goal]. Of course, I went again. We actually … Continue reading Into the gardens
Valley Gardens
Harrogate, in North Yorkshire, is one of my absolute favourite places to go. Me and my boyfriend go every year, splashing out on a cool apartment to stay in for a few days, just to wander around the town. To be honest, it's very similar to where we live but it's slightly more up market … Continue reading Valley Gardens
Drumming Circle
Last night [Monday the 2nd October] I went to my very first drumming circle. It was... different. My friend recently found out there was a drumming circle in our town [which is totally up my street, figuratively and literally] which has been going for 5 years and so we decided we needed to go and … Continue reading Drumming Circle
Currently Enjoying
I've been bunkered down, recently; working on multiple projects which are keeping me B.U.S.Y, but that doesn't mean I haven't had time to enjoy little things here and there which have helped break up the monotony. Here's what I've currently been enjoying: Re-reading Harry Potter - I try to do this every year and, mostly, … Continue reading Currently Enjoying
Bank Holiday Hike // Photo stream
Yes, another photo blog but I promise there are others in the pipeline! Until then, enjoy the pictures of when me and the dawg went for a walk. It was hot. We enjoyed it greatly! This was before Autumn fully hit us! I know most people would discard the pictures of their dog which are … Continue reading Bank Holiday Hike // Photo stream
Walking in the woods // photo stream
There's nothing more I love than taking the little pocket pup, Juno, up to what we locally call The Edge; it's a huge wood where you can explore and run amok should the desire take you and it recently did. I wanted to get a trip up there in before the leaves started to turn … Continue reading Walking in the woods // photo stream
The Black Lake // photostream
We've had a bank holiday weekend this weekend and, for some reason, I decided each day would include an adventure. This is the first of three photo stream posts... I can only apologise! (but not really) This place is called The Black Lake and it's literally around the corner from me but I had … Continue reading The Black Lake // photostream
