The decisions I made late last year and early this year came to fruition in March when I had a heavy workload which meant most other activities went out the window. I worked for over 3 weeks straight without a day when I didn’t do some kind of work be this uni work (marking assignments)Continue reading “March 2024 – Wall to wall work”

February 2024 – Sudden Realisation
One month down and February was a month when I had a sudden realisation, more of that later. As I said in January’s post as of the 1st February I was going full steam ahead with my side hustle. The Good Cook’s Cupboard (TGCC) – this will be a food subscription box to educate peopleContinue reading “February 2024 – Sudden Realisation”
January 2024 – Here we go again
Early in January, I was debating if I should carry on writing these monthly blog posts, part of me felt like a broken record, saying the same things over and over again, and not really making any progress towards my life goals. However, I thought about the reason I started doing it in the firstContinue reading “January 2024 – Here we go again”
December 2023 – Nearly There
Here we are, the last month of the year! December holds mixed emotions for me, in some ways I love it and in others I hate it. The month started with a visit to Belton House to see their illuminations with a friend, it was a fab way to start December, despite it being quite foggyContinue reading “December 2023 – Nearly There”
November 2023 – Taking a step back
November was a month to take a step back and enjoy some annual leave! I had lots of annual leave booked from the uni and I wanted to make the most of this time off, although, the business continues regardless which works well as it does give me more time to do some admin andContinue reading “November 2023 – Taking a step back”
October 2023 – Drifting
After the rather relentless September, October felt like I just drifting aimlessly! Over many years I’ve had to work hard to keep my head above water and that hard work is finally paying off with me feeling more in control of my life and finances. However, this feeling is quite alien to me so OctoberContinue reading “October 2023 – Drifting”
July 2023 – Sharing Knowledge
I was glad to see the back of June with the sadness I had been feeling. The first half of July was full on, I had been commissioned to deliver a couple of training courses and although these had been booked a couple of months previously I was behind with the preparation. The dates justContinue reading “July 2023 – Sharing Knowledge”
March 2023 – Clinging on
March felt like I was just about clinging onto life and just able to keep all the balls I juggle in the air. The the beginning of the months, I yet again found myself counting down the days until I had a period of annual leave/days off. Doing this has never felt comfortable to meContinue reading “March 2023 – Clinging on”
November 2022 – Friendship Matters
November seemed to go by in a blur of working and sleeping. Not much to say about this month as it’s been all about getting my head down and working! I’m not one for wishing days away, however halfway through the month, I started counting down the days until I could rest, not just theContinue reading “November 2022 – Friendship Matters”
October 2022 – Trusting Your Gut
October, where do I start?!! Like all the other months of the year, it seemed to whizz by in a blink of an eye, probably doesn’t help that from around the 10th October I’ve been lecturing full time at the Uni as well as continuing to run Firecracker, 60 hour weeks are the norm atContinue reading “October 2022 – Trusting Your Gut”
