I promise it's only for a week though so don't worry, normal service will be resumed shortly. I … [Read more...]
Day Five of my week off – Picture Hanging Day…

Are you bored with my daily updates yet? 😂My mission today was to get the wing shot pictures that I made the other day up on the wall.

Day Four of my week off – Waffles and Gloss Day….

Turn Blue Monday into Happy Monday….
Apparently, today is Blue Monday, a day known for being the most miserable Monday of the year! It's called Blue Monday as it's supposedly the most miserable day of the year which has something to do with the fact that Christmas seems like a distant memory whereas payday feels like it's forever away.
