An emotional rollercoaster. At times needing to hold back tears, other times, smiles. One chapter down and beginning the next. But what a feeling. Writing to me has been an unsual activity that's comparable to looking up one day while waiting in line at a café and seeing love at first sight from the person [...]
Dear Journal, I'm getting awfully good at these spring time BBQs. Sweet Baby Rays Buffalo Wing Sauce on the chicken went down like a treat this afternoon. A Christmas Ginger Bread Man awaits for desert. Little Everly is sleeping longer through the nights lately. A little unsettled today but all the more sweet. She likes [...]
I'm going to keep this one short, and sweet. I've expressed so much gratitude over the last few days to all of my readers. And I'm feeling content. You've made the last 31 consecutive days of blogging an absolute blast. It's been the most fullfilling month of blogging for me. I'm grateful for that. For [...]
What's the difference between a pronoun, a grapheme, and a consonant? I have absolutely no idea! In fact, I even had to look up how to spell 'consonant' as I thought it was spelt *constenant. This is what I most love about writing, particularly today; the fact that one can write any way they so [...]
What made the October favourites list? This month the focus has been so much on you, the community, and on my family during the birth of our daughter that I invested little in those tangible things that usually make my monthly favourites list. There was, however, a few noteworthy favs making the list which I'm [...]
Admittedly, there were a few extra journal posts this week. One, because they are an easy way to share an update and document my life for myself, and two, they also fill in the spaces between the absolute grand, yet wonderful chaos that has been this week of October, and, blogtober! There was humility in [...]
Sitting beside my new Himalayan rock salt lamp, my little girl Hazel in my lap, nearing 11pm at night, I was about to write a daily journal post. It then struck me, we are nearly 4 weeks into October and there are only a few days left. So I switched gears, back to you, in [...]
Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), Sleep, yeah, about that. A little out as expected. A special little someones birthday today; happy birthday 'Batman'. BBQ for dinner awaits. It's going to be a nice celebration. I tried a decaf latte from a cafe near us today that I was yet to try, was real nice. Still [...]
Dear Journal (and blogtober readers), Wife came home earlier than expected, almost 2 days earlier last night. It's so nice to have her back home. These last two days have reminded me that I spend alot of time sitting at a desk and in front of a computer. Being swept off my my feet the [...]
It's a little chaotic at times, right? We all have busy lives - in between working, studies, family life, finding time for friends and relatives, social commitments and sports activities or hobbies, and we can't forget rest or recovery, maybe sleeping or reading. Whatever is your fancy. Let's even throw in there having a baby, [...]
