It’s been a couple of weeks since I’ve blogged. I’ve sat down numerous times to write out a post, but I’ve been distracted with everything that’s been going on. Because – I moved! The exciting and exhausting process has once again been made, only this time I can be settled for a while. If you … Continue reading The Busy Bullet Journal
A Spring Weekend
When I stepped out of my car after work yesterday and into the evening air, I could smell some flowers. It was not yet dark but I could see the white glow of the moon surrounded by clouds. Spring is here and I’m excited! It has been said before and I will be one of … Continue reading A Spring Weekend
Continuing the Bullet Journal
As you might know, I started a bullet journal last month! As I said in this post, I wanted something to feel organised and where everything could be in one place as I adjusted to full-time work and needed to plan and think ahead more. The good news is, I am still loving it! It … Continue reading Continuing the Bullet Journal
A Lizard’s Song / Poem
A Lizard’s Song (written by Sarah Bennett) I was walking home from the shops, a single bag tucked under my arm. I want to say it was filled with celery and carrots, greenery poking out the top, but I had only purchased eyeliner from the pharmacy and a cheap bottle of wine. The sun came … Continue reading A Lizard’s Song / Poem
August 2022 Reads

They all vary in their focus which is helpful; I am currently reading one about poetry, one about famous authors and their writing spaces, and one about Russian short stories (very specific, but … Continue reading August 2022 Reads

When we walk on the shore you break the seashells. I want to save the delicate, A reminder to … Continue reading Gold / Poem
Learning to Prioritise
I've been sitting in the sun and realising I have more time than I thought I did. In starting a full-time job, I knew there would be an adjustment period as I got used to a time-sensitive to-do list on the weekend and more responsibility in how I spent my evenings. To help minimise the … Continue reading Learning to Prioritise
Awake / Poem
Awake (written by Sarah Bennett) I fell asleep at eighteen and opened my eyes at twenty five. I tell myself I’m wiser from it all, but I don’t know if that’s true. I threw away time I thought I didn’t need and now spend every second trying to keep up with the present. I do … Continue reading Awake / Poem
Bullet Journal Beginner
I’ve finally done it: I started a Bullet Journal! Over the past week I’ve been trying a few different ways to help me get organised as I adjust to a full-time job and needing to prioritise my time differently, but I have the feeling the Bullet Journal will be what I stick with because it … Continue reading Bullet Journal Beginner
Harbour / Poem
Harbour (written by Sarah Bennett) That conversation, A passing delight, Was perhaps the final one – The last of our joy. The end met us, As we walked to the harbour, At which we never again set sail. I created this as a blackout poem a number of years ago and thought it was time … Continue reading Harbour / Poem
