Having not posted on my blog for a few months, I think it's about time to get us up to speed with what's been happening since the last post! Forgive me for getting off the ground so quickly. Here goes... Trying not to get too knotted up in my brain 🙂 I literally got off... Continue Reading →

"Life gets in the way", says a friend of mine. Actually he's not the only person who has openly expressed that sentiment, although I have never really agreed with it. I am aware that I haven't written in a long while; one might say that life did get in the way but for me it's... Continue Reading →
