Well, Day 12 folks!

I’m sure you will be glad to hear a little less from me for a while! Read More »

I love to learn. More accurately, I love to educate myself.

I don’t mean learn, like learning for an exam, revising…nope not my thing really. What I mean, is that I love to gain knowledge, explore topics and things that I am interested in. Read More »

I wonder if anyone is reading this right now.

I wonder if the people who have been reading my blogs actually enjoy them.

I wonder if it has helped anyone. Read More »

January. The month of the detox. The cleanse. The flat tummy tea. The diet. The gym rush.

The thing is, in essence, I actually really like the whole new year, new goals concept. I love a fresh start, a plan and feeling motivated to go for my goals.

The most wonderful time of the year.

For me I think so yes.

For many of us, Christmas definitely is the most magical time of year.
