  • Things that have filled my cup

    As I mentioned in my last post, I had a scary doctor’s appointment last Wednesday, and during this appointment I got some pretty scary news that has kind of turned my world upside down. As I’ve been told that I need to try my best to stay positive for now (which I do struggle with a lot) I have been trying to surround myself with things that make me happy, and that have the potential to take my mind off everything. So I thought I’d share the few things that are getting me through it all.

    As a huge fan of cartoons, I got super excited last year when Haunted Hotel was released and binged the show in one go, and it immediately became one of my comfort watches. So when they announced season 2 I did a little happy dance, and I couldn’t wait to watch it! Last Friday it was finally time, I had marked it on my calendar, and the first thing I did that morning was make a big cup of tea and start my binge of season 2, and I absolutely loved it. The show is so full of loveable characters, but my favourite is Abaddon, and I wish I could adopt him. (And honestly, this was also very much needed after the disappointment and shit show that was Carrie)

  • Wenday

    Wenday

    Today is Wednesday, and I am in desperate need of a Wenday. This is something that my husband invented back in 2018, after we had just started our long distance relationship, and I was constantly feeling overwhelmed by all the changes that were going on in my life.

  • A Cosy Study Session

    Last Saturday was the official start of my university module! While I have failed at getting ahead as much as I wanted, I finished the first week quite quickly, as it was only an introduction to the module, which means that I am now ever so slightly ahead after all. Week 2 starts on the 10th, but this morning I decided to get started on that and have a cosy study session.

    My study essentials: a cup of tea, candles, perhaps a wee snack, and a book to read during my pomodoro breaks. And my favourite pens, of course.

  • Saturday Melancholy

    Saturday Melancholy

    It’s Saturday morning, and I feel a little bit weird. My husband has left for work a couple of hours ago after being home for 3 weeks due to a pretty intense chest infection, so today is the start of “life going back to normal” for both of us, which also means that for the first time in, what feels like ages, I am all alone. I don’t mind being alone so much, I’m quite used to it as my husband does 12 hour shifts, switching from days to nights, and I usually try to be productive on some level during those hours, whether that involves doing household chores, studying, or doing something for my mental health. But it feels different this time.

  • October Is Finally Here

    October Is Finally Here

    My favourite month has finally arrived! I woke up incredibly excited this morning, because despite everything else that’s going on in my life, it gave me a sprinkle of joy. Currently, everything feels dark and gloomy; mentally I am not doing okay at all, but it’s my physical health that makes everything a bit scary and unsure at the moment. All of that has the ability to ruin this month for me, but I am doing my best to not let it, and to make October cosy and lovely. And so I made myself a list with the things I want/hope to do this month.
