Do you know that feeling when you start something again, where once you knew exactly how to do it – but now it feels like a sort of distance memory? That whilst you know you know you how to do it – but can’t quite work out how it used to be so easy?
That’s how it feels starting up this blog. I used to write daily, then weekly, then less frequently than that again until the words just kind of stopped. I can actually pinpoint the exact moment that happened- but maybe that’s a story for a different day.

in 2024 - I've decided to change it up
This year – I want to go back to focusing on the things I’ve previously loved doing. That’s primarily writing and content media. So – I’ve decided to do a number of things for this year which are listed down below. Although I don’t think this is the exhaustive list – and I’m sure there’s more – it’s something to work towards
goal targets!

wrap up ♥
I’ve started the year with Wally and my BFF’s Maccas – and we’re going to be truthful in our journey. Our 2024 start was not great, and it’s made me realise that things can change in an instant, but we just need to be open to seeing opportunties that come our way, and create them when they’re not.
We’re going to work towards some amazing new experiences and great memories for this year, and I can’t wait to have you along with me.
