A seat by the sea

A seat by the sea

I just SL moved and the view is the sea. Naturally, I had to share this little corner with the Mareas Patio set from Chez Moi with you. There’s something about the calm of the water, the endless horizon, and the soft light that makes this spot feel extra special. The new seating here feels [...]

Monday

Monday

The weekend was great, full of food, family, and way too much chocolate. I’ve had more chocolate eggs than a chicken farm and enough sugar to put me in a diabetic coma . At this point, even the sight of foil makes me twitch. But today feels like the exhale. One last quiet day before [...]

Easter weekend is here

Easter weekend is here

It’s Easter weekend and I’m very happy right now. I also have a week off work which means no work for 10 days. For the next two days I have a young man coming to stay over. My grandson which I am totally looking forward to. After that, my world is my oyster and I [...]

Still waiting?

Still waiting?

You know how we, as women, tend to live in “waiting around mode”? Waiting for the right moment, the right sign, or that perfect alignment of the universe. “I’ll take that trip once I’ve saved enough or lost that weight.” And don’t get me started on waiting for someone else to make the first move, [...]

Time to recharge

Time to recharge

I just need to sit under the trees and drink a beer some days. Sometimes in life we get so engrossed in the day to day, we forget that we need to take more moments to just think about ourselves and recharge our energies. Connect with people and forge relationships. My energies have been on [...]

Sunday

Sunday

What a beautiful Sunday it has been here in Kent 🇬🇧 today. It was chilly but so beautiful I felt that spring in my step to do spring stuff like spring cleaning and buying new cloths and furniture. Decorating and just opening up ready for the summer. Unfortunately in reality the funds don’t exist for [...]

Exhaustion

Exhaustion

I’m exhausted. So exhausted that it’s bothering me at how exhausted I’m feeling. Fibromyalgia exhaustion isn’t simple tiredness, it’s a heavy, unrelenting fatigue that feels like it’s taken root in every cell. On flare days, it’s like even blinking requires monumental effort. My body aches, my thoughts fog, and everything around me feels out of [...]

Happy Mothers Day

Happy Mothers Day

Motherhood’s a journey, wild and vast,A tapestry woven from moments that last. It’s late-night whispers and lullabies sung,The ache in your arms when the day is still young. It’s chaos and calm, a dance in between,A mess that’s more magic than it might seem. It’s holding on tight, then learning to let go,Watching them blossom [...]

Look 4 fingers!!!

Look 4 fingers!!!

I’m sat here contemplating my next chore of many I set myself today. Honestly I may have decided on too many things and now unsure which one to complete first. It’s already 2pm and I’m way behind here. So I’m going to take a few moments and stare at my fingers before my next move. [...]

The £240 Energy Bill: Comedy or Tragedy? 

The £240 Energy Bill: Comedy or Tragedy? 

You know that moment in a movie where the hero discovers the villain’s evil lair and gasps at the sheer scale of chaos? That was me this today, staring at my new energy bill: **£240**. A month. I mean, what are they fuelling as it’s not my place at that amount? The Death Star? Because [...]
