I don’t use public transport that often. I have a car and I don’t mind driving but if I have to do a lot of driving in one day, I’m absolutely screwed, I have a flare-up that can last days, if not weeks and then I’m an irritable bitch. Unfortunately, Ian can’t drive so I…
Year: 2016
Personal: To the Sperm Donor
Weren’t we adorable? I share pretty much everything on my blog, it’s my space, I write what I want, and I’m lucky enough to have a readership that appreciate my honesty. But this one is a little different; I won’t be regaling ridiculous things I’ve said due to brain fog, or telling you about how…
Dating Websites/Apps for the Disabled
Last week I entered into a Twitter debate regarding dating apps/websites specifically designed for disabled people. I’m not one to hold back with my opinion (as you well know), and since I found a number of issues with the websites/apps, I thought I’d share why I find it all so problematic.1. It highlights that disabled…
Yankee Candle Haul
In Nottingham a few weeks ago, I took full advantage of the Yankee Candle store, as you can tell. I always buy the sample sizes before purchasing a large jar so I can test out how they burn and whether I like the scent; I then head straight over eBay and buy the large jars…

Viktor & Rolf Flowerbomb
A cult favourite perfume for so many is Viktor & Rolf – Flowerbomb; I’ve lusted after it for over a year. Every time I’d go into Boots or a department store, I’d have a little spray and my senses would dance happily. I put off purchasing it as I have so many perfumes that sit…
Chronic Illness and Brain Fog
For as long as I’ve been living the Spoonie life (16 years), I’ve had these weird little bouts of fogginess. The combination of chronic pain, fatigue and lack of sleep take a huge toll on the brain and sometimes it’s really difficult to say words, let alone form sentences.When it comes to brain fog, I’m…
30 Things Before I’m 30
I turned 29 on Tuesday, which means I’m in my final year of my 20s – scary thought. I had a really lovely birthday; Ian and I went out for a meal in the evening and I devoured three courses, it was delicious. It got me thinking on things I’d like to do before I turn…
