March is sowing time: day 6 no social media
We got up this morning, made bacon sandwiches ( giving up pork is very slow to happen) and I went straight out to the garden. With all the renovations we have a lot of cardboard which is a great tool in the garden. My allotment is still a mess, just like my garden, green house…

Day 5 of no social media
We got up and left the house for a coffee, Frank joined us so it would be a nice little dog walk. Our local coffee shop serves excellent coffee and is dog friendly, I tried a different donut ( riveting stuff hu) and then we went to our local butchers to buy some steak. They…

Day four of no social media and I feel nice and focused.
I do. I hit lots of work targets this week. I feel focused and good. I learned a lot also I noticed that I have written way more blogs this week than I have all year. So no social media is really helping. When I watch tv I focus on what I am watching. Without…

Day 3 of no social media: I fell in love with a £2500 sink
I am in love. The colour. The shape. The brand. But we can’t afford it for a downstairs toilet sink. Even though it’s a work of art. Somethings are just not meant to be. I definitely think I was more focused at work, I achieved a lot today and feel on top of my work…

Day 2 of no social media: bathroom tiles prep

Day one of no social media
It’s day one. No social media but I probably spent the same amount of time looking at my phone as I would normally which shows that my social media addiction is a terrible habit even when it’s not there. So I am going to see how tomorrow goes. I am hoping to improve, even if…

Deleting my social media
I haven’t been thinking about this very long but maybe I should delete my apps. Instagram feels dead in the water And although I learn and enjoy TikTok is it too addictive. Would I spend more of my time reading than lusting over books? If I did, I would have to get rid of both.…

Downstairs WC plans
Gavin chose the wallpaper, I don’t love it but I do like the tropical leaves. It’s navy gold and colourful, it’s just a bit much. I love everything else. I bought the anthropology mirror last year and now they don’t sell it any more so I am so happy I did. We fell in love…

Quick Bathroom update
We knew it was going to happen and it did. Our workman was working on the shower and the floor collapsed into the kitchen. Lucky we weren’t in it. I am glad it’s getting fixed properly and hopefully the floor will be around for the next hundred years without any issues.

Moment in time
Last holiday I got dual nationality with a Seychelles passport. This time, they have changed the laws so now I can have residency as well. I am so appreciative that I am now a proper Seychellois, just need to learn the language and that will be another tick of my list. I know and appreciate…
