Made it Through the Dark

To think that it was only a couple of weeks ago that I posted another photo from this same location on Acomb's Hobmoor in near-darkness. I've been walking this same route once a week for the past seven months and it hit me this week: I remember when I walked this in the heat of …

Merry Christmas

Another year, another Christmas message. Well, I hope you all have had a good day this Christmas 2018 and that have a good New Year. Let's see what the following year has in store - I hope it's something good for you. As per my last post - no resolutions apart from the usual ones …

Quick Take Friday – Jobs, Vocations, & Being

(Or Saturday, but nobody’s counting. You can catch up with the rest of 7QTF at This Ain’t the Lyceum) ~1~ I am dancing again, woo! Managed to find (as if it were such a feat) a group in York who are pretty easy to reach and laid back, too. ~2~ This week has been nothing …

The End Is Nigh

Good luck to all the finalists (I don't know how the system works in other countries, so I guess this is tailored to the UK) who finish their degrees verrryy soon. Me included. 5 exams down, 1 to go. More revision pics. Because revision. Seems to be my life right now. In my gorgeous vintage …

Photo of the Week: Caramel

I have nicknamed this week 'Hell week', as from Monday to Monday it is of four deadlines and at least four meetings, so hence the blog going quiet. It's a necessary quiet for now until I get my uni stuff more in order. Or I'll just stick with Photo of the Week and the new …

7 Quick Takes – The World Continues Turning

I may be a day late for the Friday Quick Takes, but I thought I ought to add something in this blog of a weekly writing update around the reblogs and photos of the week I’ve been placing down. ~1~ Wow, what a week it’s been. Hard to believe that this time last week I …
