The main thing that kicked off this project, was the realisation that I’d bought five red lipsticks in one week. I love a red lip, and I’m always on the hunt for the perfect red lipstick. I have 3 go … Continue reading Shopping Ban 2022: The Hunt for Perfection
During the first lockdown, oh so long ago now, I assumed I’d save loooooooads of money from not being able to shop or go out. Not that I go out, well ever, really. My idea of going out is a … Continue reading Shopping Ban 2022

This book was very different to my expectations, being a family drama rather than a horror (although there are horrific elements). The author focuses on the family dynamics of the Altmans, who on the surface seem to have the perfect life.

I’ve been noticeably absent from my blog, YouTube and even my Instagram this last year, for a number of reasons. First of all, the last lockdown badly affected my mental health; it seemed to be never ending, and I started to think I would never be able to go back to work. I love my job. When I went back to work, it took a while for me to feel normal again. I kept expecting the bookshop to suddenly close again with no notice. I was actually working on the till in December when the Welsh Government announced a lockdown … Continue reading Absence makes the blog post longer…
