I like to have ambitions for the future, sometimes very intricate ones. I realised that we're three decades old and we need to have a solid plan for how we're actually going to get to our future, instead of just having ideas about it. I came up with this lil' infographic. Unless we … Continue reading Current life plans

I’d love to run a zoo
Believe it or not, my floorplanning obsession did not actually start with houses. While I have always wanted to build my own house, and I was stupidly small when I started scribbling designs, my first floorplan was actually a zoo! I did it on the back of a spare roll of lino and it was … Continue reading I’d love to run a zoo
Married 1 year!
On Halloween we went down to the restaurant where we had our wedding reception exactly a year prior, and had a very nice dinner. There's always something tangible in the air on the 31st itself. We had to avoid the motorway due to issues with the car, so we drove through so many beautiful … Continue reading Married 1 year!
Headspace
Recently I've felt like there's not enough space in my head. When my injections wear off I end up with constant background migraines which cause a lot of head burning, and an intense swelling feeling, along with nausea and visual disturbances, even if I'm not crying and vomiting like I would be during a main … Continue reading Headspace
Just doing a thing
There's been a thing on the social medias recently where people put images of four favourite things in a category (usually games/ films). I decided to put mine together in Photoshop Elements purely because I don't have much else to do as I'm a bit ill at the moment. That's it really.
I got woodlice
I went and did a thing that I didn't initially expect to do. I bought woodlice for Joop's tank. I can already hear people wondering how mad I've gone, but there is a reason for it. They work as so-called "vivarium custodians" and wander around eating old food, poo, and generally keeping the soil in … Continue reading I got woodlice
General house shenanigans
I hope I'll be able to come up with some more interesting post titles soon, but here are some recent things. There's still a fair bit of unpacking to do, and the pressure is really on because it's almost time for Will's birthday party. I thought having a deadline would make me work faster in … Continue reading General house shenanigans
Pet and house spam
Since I got my new phone, WordPress for some reason sorts my photos into a totally random order; adding them to a post chronologically is effort I don't want to expend right now, so please enjoy this medley of photos from assorted days. Here's some stuff from before the move. I … Continue reading Pet and house spam
There’s something wrong with Joop
Joop has been different since the weekend. There was a point during the BBQ when I passed his tank, spotted that he was on his food, and talked to him through the glass. I must have been too loud in my drunkenness, because he zipped right back into his shell! Snails are deaf by virtue … Continue reading There’s something wrong with Joop
BBQ 2019, Freya is 10!
The garden was a huge mess the next day! I think everyone got a bit more casual about it when Will had to go to bed early. This also happened at the BBQ before last; the link seems to be cocktails made from Blue Curaçao; I love it but unfortunately it seems to make Will … Continue reading BBQ 2019, Freya is 10!
