  • I forgot the yoga again I didn’t do my planned yoga last night. And I forgot again this morning. I loved it the one day I succeeded in this aim, so I don’t know why I didn’t do it. Maybe I’m lazy? I can’t possibly use the excuse of being too busy anymore. I think…

  • Is it vanity?  Today’s the day of my chemical peel. I made the mistake last night of looking up all the things that can go wrong, and also what the recovery can look like. Quite possibly in a couple of days my skin will start flaking off in massive pieces like a victim of some…

  • Namaste I didn’t kiss my husband at the door this morning when he left for work. He was out the door before 5am and I just couldn’t force myself out of bed. I wish I had, he’s away for the next two days.  When I did wake at 6:30, I had my predictable can of…

  • On Reddit and feminism  My day started with feminist musings before 7am.  Most days I have a scroll through Reddit over my morning can of Monster. I still haven’t given up that habit, not sure if I ever will. The first post that came up on my feed was on the ‘tradwives’ forum, where the…

  • Just, chores What’s to say about this morning? It was a Saturday, we did chores, we achieved things.  I’d booked me and my husband eye tests, so that’s how the day begun. Our prescriptions confirmed what we knew, we both need new glasses. A bigger TV can only help so much. I’ll buy my glasses…

  • Impulsively buying salt Cottage pie and a good rest had done the trick, I woke up migraine free. Not quite bright eyed and bushy tailed, but close to.  One of the problems with migraines is sometimes a poorly thought out impulse purchase can be made. I made such a purchase late last night, and bought…

  • Today may end up being my shortest blog.  I’ve been fending off a migraine for the last two days. It’s been lurking behind my left eye. That’s where they always start for me. After coming back from a lovely morning wandering round charity shops, I had a nap. When I woke up, the migraine had…

  • Productivity, or lack there of Today there was no morning routine. I had nothing to do. I cleaned the kitchen after our friend left last night, and the rest of the flat was already clean and tidy. If I started the day cleaning, it would be for no other reason than to fill my time.…

  • Doing things differently  I tried starting the day in a different order. Bedrooms and lounge first, then bathroom and finally the kitchen. I didn’t like this order. Something feels off about cleaning the dry rooms before the wet ones. I’m unsure as to why, but hey, I tried something new.  I never have breakfast. It’s…

  • Powered by dim sum My plan last night to power my day with dim sum seemed to work.  I got up and deep cleaned the kitchen and bathroom, then sorted the washing. Quite how two people create so much washing, I have absolutely no idea. During the week I seem to be doing two loads…
