Gang, hello, long time no see.  I realise I'm posting two LOTD's back to back ( Week 4 here ), but the accompanying Life Lately post is going to combine both weeks as I didn't do much nor do I have many notes for this period.  The previous week I'd taken my first trip out of the house all year, so that took it's toll and I needed time to recover, hence why I wasn't capable of doing a whole lot.  Things in my current life (my LL/LOTD posts are months behind), have also taken a bit of a turn.  I'm suffering from a herniated/slipped disc at the moment, which is extremely debilitating and painful.  I'm not getting much sleep because I can't move into a more comfortable position, I'm needing my walking stick and assistance to go to the bathroom in the adjacent room, I'm still in the same ...

LOTD: Week 4

Hi gang, sorry for the delay between posts lately.  I've been in a bit of a funk mood-wise and have taken up decorative journaling (not writing) in loose-leaf binders to be exact.  I'm really loving it and I've found it's something I'm actually managing without becoming completely shattered.  I've been doing a little bit each day and that's obviously eaten into any time I would normally have spent blogging.  I can't do it all and as poor as my quality of life has been over the years, I don't think it's too selfish to prioritise something I'm finding really enjoyable.  Anyway, it doesn't look like I'm going to get caught up on these posts anytime soon (may live to regret starting so far behind, but at the same time a lot of the work had already been done so...), but here's anoth...

Life Lately: Week 3

I expected this post to be a little less mundane than usual, as I actually left the house and did something for once (nothing 'exciting' sadly).  I wanted to be really truthful about how that feels, but it's hard to put into words without sounding like a narcissistic moanbag!  I suspect I'll cut a lot of this out, but read on for a summary of that week.

LOTD: Week 3

Hello, I hope you're all keeping well.  We've gotten some much needed rain (the grass is green for the first time all Summer) and it's been a bit cooler (thankfully), so I've been able to sleep at night.  It's actually been feeling slightly Autumnal for brief moments and as we say in Scotland "the nights are fair drawing in" (means daytime is shorter/night is coming quicker), so it's time to shut the curtains and put the lights on earlier than usual.  Dare I say, I've been thinking of Christmas?  I keep getting emails about beauty advent calendar waitlists, so I think it's that, coupled with the change in weather!  Here's my round-up of lip combos and perfumes I've worn throughout the week.

Life Lately: Week 2

Post does not contain PR gifted items.  Post contains some affiliate links, marked with * (affiliate links can earn the blog a small commission on purchases made). Hello, here's my second weekly summary of what's been happening.  I wanted to post it last week, but I was busy doing other things and am trying not to beat myself up too much if blogging isn't as punctual as it should be.  Health-wise I'm at a point where I have to choose one thing or another, I can't do both, so I made that choice and I enjoyed what I was doing.  I'm genuinely so happy to have a few blog posts completed already, I wasn't sure I'd manage it, so I'm not putting pressure on myself to do more than I can.  I hope you're all coping as best as you can with the heat (I was actually in tears watching the fires on the news).  It had been cooler here recently, but unfortunately back to sweltering the past few days.  I know we're nowhere near the hottest in the country, but...
