The upside to no social media: no more toxic booktok

First day back

Of course I am superstitious but only in a good way
Are you superstitious? I believe in karma, I believe in Mother Nature , in Physics and Science. I don’t believe in fate. I worked in a shop that sold mirrors and after breaking my third I realised that bad luck was a silly superstition that didn’t hold any power, not with me. By the time…

Dreaming of these window boxes
I tried to find the owner of the picture but it leads back to Instagram and someone sharing a photo, then sharing a photo. It’s trickier not being on instagram so if this beautiful photo is your creation please let me know. I would love to know what flowers these are as I really would…
