This boy teaches me how to be chill.

The secret to longevity is to do nothing for as long as possible, right?
I am learning how to be unproductive and okay with it.

Oh, just a tiny (massive) gas leak somewhere in my tiny, falling apart flat.
Haha!

I don't need a million pounds, just my son, my cat and hot water.
I'm a simple woman.

Everyone’s introducing themselves, so I'll join in.

I’m an award-winning writer of personal essays living in the north of England. Here are my books (I will talk about them a lot). This is my massive dog (I will talk about her a lot). I’m a pretty harmless presence really.

I know what to buy if I want to throw up.
Bleh.

I'm having a crappy week.
How wonderful to see you and your magnificent dog.

Cheered me up.

Damn, Adam.
What a timely reminder.
I need to purchase your book!

More soothing sounds for fireworks season Episodes to soothe disturbed ears and distract from firework noise.

Here's a playlist if you or your furry friends need a distraction from the sound of fireworks tonight.

Bookmark for #BonfireNight and beyond.

Just thinking of the chaos and screaming and tantrums and high blood pressure going on in the whitehouse right now.

BIG GRIN ON MY FACE

I'm going to have a shower at a friend's house later.
The logistics involved in this are greater than you'd think.
One can't simply shower.
One must plan each step.
One will not lose one's sh*t.

breaking waves on a shingle beach.

Let the sound of the sea take you to sleep. 🎧
Or keep you company while you work. 🎧

Episode 285 - Late October on Chesil Beach (32 mins)

Just the sound of the waves and the pebbles.
No one else around.

Everything is awful but hey, here's my cat sniffing the air through an open window.

Thank you.

Haha, I DID get a few odd looks from the staff.

To pretend I'm free, I danced a little to Neneh Cherry in the fruit 'n' veg aisle of the local tesco metro.
Given how narrow the aisles are, this was a major health and safety issue.
I'm surprised I wasn't bundled away like a convict.

I forgot to buy deodorant.

I am still without hot water and heating due to gas leak.
Waiting for the people who are supposed to call me is making me want to crawl into bed for approximately 3 to 5 business days.
