Postcrossing

Last year ( 2020 ) a dear friend of mine mentioned she was sending postcards and after a while I asked her about it.....

This is how I learnt about Postcrossing!

After checking the website out and reading, then going back and re-reading. Trust me I read everything and then still couldn't make my mind up. 

On the New Year Eve - I decided that I would join and become a postcrosser. The next day 1st of January 2021 I took the plunge to signed up..

I did not send my first postcard until 13th of January. Only because I did not have any postcards, stamps and air mail stickers. Also I only trust the post box at work, silly really. But to me whatever I post seems to get to its destination. If I use another it never gets there, apart from the work postbox or the main post office...

The first two postcards I wrote and sent was of Weymouth seafront, my home town. 

To send a letter or postcard over seas from the UK costs £1.70 which is two 1st class stamps 0.85p each. 

At this moment in time both postcards are still travelling one is on its way to America and the other is off to Russia. 

I will keep you all posted when they get to the destination.

Tonight I will be writing some more... 

New Year

Hello all! 

I hope you are all well and are staying safe in these difficult times. 

Guess I best say Happy New Year - let hope this year improves..  I live in the UK and we are in lockdown 3.

So I thought I would come on and share some of my goals for this year.

1: Do something that is out of my comfort zone.. 

2: Get my garden back!! Best not ask whats happened there. I will do a post soon..

3: Spread more happiness during these difficult times.

4: Use up all my toiletries and craft stuff..

5: Save more (Personal goal)

6: Join Postcrossing 

7: Get fit (Personal Goal)

There is a few other things, but I'm not willing to share.  At the moment! 

Please stay safe

2020 Life (part 1)

Sorry I vanished I know my last post I said I was back. To be honest I had planned to get back into doing posts. 

But life got in the way, I have never mentioned it before but I work for a supermarket so, during this year. I (like so many of my follow colleagues) have been working hard to feed the nation, during this pandemic..

Trust me its been scary at times, but obviously nothing like what our amazing NHS have witness. 

I was planning to do a post back in January on my goals for this year. Instead those goals have been put on hold for now, for obvious reasons.  

But 2020 haven't failed me, I have learnt so much. About myself, I have also learnt to forgive people who have treated me wrong in the past and present. Also I have learnt who are real friends and who aren't..  Sad thing is I have lost friends because they have shown their true colours. Wow it takes a pandemic for those you consider as friends to show their real selves... 

Hopefully will post soon.

Please Stay safe everyone.

I'm back

Hello Everyone!

So sorry I have not posted anything in the last 12 months.

My ipad died in September of last year 2019 and my phone was slowly packing up also. 

I now still do not have a new ipad or laptop... But I do have a new phone, so hopefully I will be posting as and when. I need to get my blogging  mojo back. 

New Friend

Hello all -  I'm still alive.....

If you are wondering where I have been. Well the answer is, I had trouble with my newish iPad (He was new to me anyhow ). I learnt I could write posts easy on the iPad. But couldn't upload photos, maybe my brother new of a way but didn't want to share and I couldn't go back to my old nexus7 as it was slowly dying. (Its still dying)


Until the other day when my Godmother said I could have her kindle fire.  Has she was upgrading to the latest version.  At first I was a little unsure about it, as I always thought the kindle is just for books. How wrong am I?


Today my Godmother pop around for coffee and a chat with my mum, she also dropped off the kindle.


I've decided from now on this is what I will be using from now on to blog...


See you soon 

Change part 2

Where to start?

So from the last post I wrote about how my sleeping pattern is out completely. Well that hasn't changed, I think I'm going to try and make myself shattered today. Get all those little jobs done, even tho I may not have the up and go.

I have also noticed my caffeine intake is s a tad high eg: Coffee, tea, fizzy drinks, chocolate. Also I seem to be back on sugar and for me that's not good. My diet use to be high fat and low carb - which also was low sugar. It's to do with the carbs and the hidden sugars.

I also want to work on my confidence too. But that's an post I think..

Change part 1

Hello. 

I know I'm online rather late at night it's 3:20am, yes I know! I'm not sure what is causing me to not go to bed at a decent time. It could be the fact my mind goes into over drive with craft projects or it's the fact I have so many shows and programmes I have recorded on sky box during the day, I'm busy at night once everyone as gone to bed. Trying to clear them from the box. Also I notice since October when the clocks change this started happening. I would like to get back to go to bed at 11pm not 1am, 2am, or 3am.....

I know this isn't good on my health, wellbeing, my mind. 

I don't want to keep going this way

I am the only one who can change this, right?

Now my rant is over I'm going to see if I can get some sleep

Good Night.
