Attawa. So delicious.
Singing Like A Prayer none stop.

Taking time to myself in the library whilst at work.
Sorting out the basement, on my own. I like tidy things.
Lots of texts with James.
My green tea matched my trousers.Feeling really quiet and calm at lunch. It felt like there was no wind, no noise, just peace. And my book and the sun.Strawberries, peanut butter and yoghurt.
Being by the sea, in a cute cabin. With a secret garden. And it’s own yoga platform.
The pub quiz. Best pub quiz I’ve ever done. Oily Muirs.
Seeing a shooting star as we walked home from the pub.
I felt so happy this evening. Really calm and peaceful, by the sea, walking in the dark.
The idea that I might be able to buy a house. In Islington.
The abundance of blossom everywhere. Fleeting and beautiful.
Not listening to anything. Just silence
Going to the Galentine’s day brunch, when I didn’t really want to. But it took me out of myself which was great. Also got to hang with Buster, this big, beautiful dog.
Discovering new music by women, singing about feminism and getting oral sex and it made me feel so much stronger and happier.
Our quiet flat back to me and Jonny for the night. Homemade pizza and silly TV.
My little cousin got my best friend’s book for Christmas. And I told everyone that he wrote it. And then she read some to me.
Getting home. Hello flat. Hello London. Hello peace and quiet.
Texting Alex.
Meditating to the sound of the birds outside my window
Finding a job I want to apply for. And it pays super well too! Accidentally already mentally spent the first month’s salary.
Ironing. It’s so relaxing. Such smooth sheets.
Being out in the garden. Putting my sunflowers outside and planting up some runner beans. Hanging my washing on the line.
The drumming at the park.
That smell of summer. Having the windows wide open. Feeling the warmth of the sun. Lying in the park reading my book. It was a good day. It was a calm and peaceful day.
SLOVENIA!
Driving the car through the countryside.
Beautiful Piran. Walking through the cobbled streets and along the waterfront at dusk. The pretty square. The apartment 15 seconds from said pretty square. The super calm water, making me feel so happy and peaceful.
Impromptu easter egg hunt at work this morning.
Feeling back on track with Hannah
Yoga. For the first time in a long time. And feeling so blissed. There was a moment of just pure joy. Which was made even better because when I first arrived I was pissed that it was a yoga teacher I previously didn’t like. But it was a really great class. Must. Be. More. Open minded.
Realising I had a whole heap of reasons to be happy today. Feeling really calm and happy. No housemates, no real day plans, being organised and peaceful. Getting my fingers in the dirt again.
Going to visit Holly and Al’s new flat. It’s beautiful. And Al telling funny, long stories about making the perfect coffee.
Alec and Ciaran at Doug’s party. Those two make me laugh heaps. HEAPS.
Having a day to do whatever I want.
And doing gardening.
Korean evening. Amazing buns and a sexy film.

Series 8 of RuPaul’s Drag Race
Going outside for dinner and discovering its a beautiful, peaceful evening.
Walking round Wilkinson’s, getting excited by glittery toilet seats, fake stone foxes and soft towels.
Chucking away a carful of stuff.
Spending the evening in the hot tub, with wine and then sitting by the fire. On my own and loving it.
A massage, facial and head massage. Whilst the snow storm raged outside.
Discovering I had a massage at the same time as mum. Random.
Hearing a hat and headphones.
A spot of sewing, turning a collared shirt into a more simple neckline.
A wander down Exmouth Market, buying nice wine, handmade leather purses, cute cards and mulled wine for two, for a chat with a friend.
Feeling positive. Feeling good. Feeling like it’s all going to be alright. I like myself. I’m proud of myself. I’m doing good.
A probably bad person to start a conversation with. But distracting. Which I needed today.
Sun. Heat. Even when it was raining.
The right tube turning up first so I didn’t have to speak to anyone on the journey home.
A few minutes to myself at lunch time. No talking, no managing, no customers, nothing.
First experience of Deliveroo. And such a happy driver!
Delicious Thai food and bad TV. Thanks Deliveroo.
The blue blue water in all the lakes and rivers and streams. The scenery down here is just incredible.
Being in a quiet, friendly campsite. There are deer in the field across from us, ducks in the stream and almost no one else around. After Queenstown this is bliss.
Knee slapping, steering wheel banging, loud singing. Red Hot by Hugh Laurie. Twice.
Sitting in the peace and quiet by the river and remembering what it’s like to be somewhere with no wind. So calm and still and so silent.
So many beautiful views of the sea as we drove further round the coast.
The cute 70’s kitchen in the youth hostel. Such thick paint, such shallow drawers.
Listening to All You Need Is Love and mouthing along as I walked up the hill.
Having a WhatsApp chat with my boyfriend.
Meditation.
Having a shower with the sun shining through the window. It’s nice to have a shower in the daylight but it also reminded me of showering at home in the summer, knowing I had a whole day of being outside in the garden or the countryside ahead of me, with my parents near by and everything being safe and normal.
The weather was beautiful today. The market was full with people buying bags of fresh, colorful good and afterwards I sat on the dock, thinking and meditating a bit and for the first time thinking to myself that maybe I could stay here longer. It’s a beautiful city. And the winters are just so sunny.
The sunlight glittering off the sea. It looked like an elaborate light show just for me.
