NaNoWriMo – How Did I Do?

Nanowrimo is over! I can finally get back to life! Okay, so I actually stopped with about five days left so I've been back to real life for almost a week now but it's so weird waking up and having to decide what to do today rather than just - write! So how did my…

Personality or Circumstance? (The one where I take the same test twice)

I was reading through the blogs on my dash the other day, as you do, and Sarah over at A Life Less Physical had a very interesting post about changes due to chronic illness (click on the linky to go read it). Her post was about taking a test that determined the best work situation…

The Move – One Year On

It's officially been a whole year since we upped sticks and made the move from our house in East London to our ground floor flat in Guernsey (Okay, so it's actually been more like one year and four days but I've been ill). I'm not sure I can explain just how much my life has…

ME Awareness and the Seven Dwarfs

ME Awareness and the Seven Dwarfs, or, how an ME sufferer is all seven dwarfs at once.

Memo Pad

I've been umming and ahing about my Memo Pad posts lately. I 'm not sure whether I should make my book reviews into their own post or not. The original idea was for the memo pad to be a summing up of all the things I have done in the month, including what books I…

7 Boring Things I Wish I Could Do – ME Awareness Part 1

I missed ME Awareness day last week (12th May) but it's still ME Awareness month. I've seen loads of amazing posts and fundraising schemes over the past couple of weeks and I feel a bit bad that I never really do anything so I thought I would chime in with my 2 pennies worth. I've…

Reader Questionnaire

I saw this post over on Bluchickenninja's blog who got it from someone else and so on. It seems to be doing the rounds and I thought I would give it a go. If your reading this I would love to see your responses to this as well.   1. What is your favourite book? This…

Fire can not kill a dragon but the cold just might

I woke up on Friday to a freezing cold house. My heating died. Kaput. It was so cold. But mum had already called The Gas Man and he was on his way (Perks of having an OAP in the house is they don't make you wait a week). He came, he saw, he failed. Apparently…
