So we are in the midst of a global pandemic and uncertainty is floating all around us. I hope you are all keeping safe. It is almost the end of week 3 of quarantine for me and since school has been closed, I have gone from constantly being glued to the BBC News channel to now hardly watching the tv. I thought during this time it would be a great time to catch up with my blog and with that I thought to share my top 5 tips of coping with being "stuck" at home.

1. Have a routine - planning is at the heart of what I do. Create a daily plan which outlines how you will spend your time throughout the day - this could be the same each day or you could have variations throughout the week.

2. Exercise - even if this is 10 mins or an hour in the morning, exercising is something that could get you pumped and ready for your day ahead. You can find great home routines on Youtube or Instagram.

Hello Bloggasphere...not sure if anyone is out there!

I have been gone for a hot minute yes I know - to how long it has been I honestly could not tell you the last time I blogged. So to answer the question in the title of this post, there is not a massive explanation - I have merely been going through the daily demands of life and unfortunately my blog has suffered.

I have not felt the urge to switch the laptop on to write a post in a while and to be brutally honest, I have had a little bit of a block. I said to myself I need to do better this year - same as I had said at the start of 2017 and it is yet to happen.



Admittedly this blog was started to get through a very rough time in my life. It was my escape and my way of dealing with a period of time where I preferred being behind a screen instead of actually talking to people. Mildly depressed? Introverted? Antisocial? Call it what you may. Once I began to get back to my true self I found that I began to blog even more....THEN I got a promotion at work and it went all to shits hahahaha.

I will get back on the wagon - I HAVE TO!! I enjoyed the feeling I got when I wrote a new post but my priorities at the moment are with work, as being a teacher I am sure you can appreciate things can get really crazy really quickly (no my holidays are not holidays until the summer break *eyeroll*). However, I'm in the middle of seriously thinking about rebranding so I am setting a goal of Easter to get back into it.

If anyone happens to read this - not sure if I even have followers anymore haha - But if you do happen to read this, it's never too late to wish you a Happy 2018 and that I hope the year has been going great thus far.

Watch this space.....
