It’s the last round up/status report of the year! December, as perhaps should be expected, has been a bit of a whirlwind this year and January is already looking like it’s going to follow suit (I really must start blocking out one weekend a month during which I will do nothing). However, I will do… Continue reading December roundup
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas! Yeah yeah, I know it’s still November but the Edinburgh Christmas market has now opened and there are stalls right outside the office. Christmas lights are up in Edinburgh, Glasgow and Falkirk and I have already done a whole bunch of my Christmas shopping, even if I… Continue reading November roundup
I’m not an enormous fan of Autumn. I know everyone else loves it, and I can appreciate how pretty the autumn leaves are as they turn red and gold, but to me, that doesn’t make up the sludge leaf mould on the pavements, the cold, the rain, the wind and the incessant dark. I don’t like… Continue reading October roundup
Things have already been feeling very Autumnal this September in Falkirk. It’s getting chilly, wet and windy and, as they say, the nights are fair drawing in. Financial status: September is always an expensive month because we tend to set insurance, broadband, TV licenses and any changes to utility providers at this time of year. Wherever… Continue reading September Roundup
August went by far too quickly (and was surprisingly cold and rainy). Here’s hoping for a more relaxed and warmer September. Financial status: I’m still making up for a few weeks of not being employed in between jobs but things are looking up. Mostly wearing: Suits and smart things at work, pyjamas the minute I get home… Continue reading August Roundup
July is already over? How? No! Bring it back! Ugh. Ok, it has been a busy month and it’s now time to look back and summarise what’s been going on. Here we go! Financial status: Ok, kind of iffy. Afterall, I did only work from the 17th of July this month. I’ve got enough savings to… Continue reading July roundup
Financial status: Better than you’d imagine from a person who now technically doesn’t have a job, but not exactly adding to my savings either. Mostly wearing: Very casual clothes. I’m in some weird annual leave/unemployed limbo until 17th July. It’s amazing. Mostly eating: Entirely too much. What with leaving do’s, catching up with old friends, and graduating I… Continue reading June roundup
Last month I tried writing a round up for the first time, having stolen the idea from Gordon and Siobhan. It worked, I liked writing it, and I think it fits nicely with my Trying New Things posts, so I’m doing it again this month. Without any further ado, here’s my April round up: Financial… Continue reading April round up
Last month I noticed that two of my favourite bloggy friends (Gordon at Happily Imperfect and Siobhan and Siobhan Claude van Damme) were posting monthly round ups. I already have my habit of posting about new things I try each month, but this is a little different. It appeals to my love of generating and… Continue reading March round up
