Lucy in the Clouds: 13x13 Challenge Race 5: Edinburgh Half Marathon
http://www.lucyintheclouds.com/2015/07/13x13-challenge-race-5-edinburgh-half.html
Day Zero Project II. Friday, 24 July 2015. 13x13 Challenge Race 5: Edinburgh Half Marathon. This was to be the third year in a row that I'd run Edinburgh Half, so I felt I knew the course well and knew what to expect. It is also one of my favourite races: the Portobello area you run through is full of gorgeous big houses and one of my favourite things to do while running is Fantasy House Shopping, my favourite running game. On the Saturday we got the bus out to the zoo, mainly to see the pandas (and we w...

Someone, Somewhere: A Year Of Buyer's Archive
http://jbistheinitial.blogspot.com/2017/01/a-year-of-buyers-archive.html
Words That Can Only Be Your Own. Monday, 9 January 2017. A Year Of Buyer's Archive. Between January 1st and December 31st 2016 I spent £712.57. On clothes, shoes and accessories and bought 61 different items, giving an average per-item spend of £11.48. This is a significant decrease. On my spending during 2015, when the overall total was £1170 (partly because I didn't buy as many 'big ticket' items like coats in 2016 and partly because my income dropped so sharply after I left teaching). The high street ...

Someone, Somewhere: 2016: What A Fucking Year, Eh?
http://jbistheinitial.blogspot.com/2016/12/2016-what-fucking-year-eh.html
Words That Can Only Be Your Own. Saturday, 31 December 2016. 2016: What A Fucking Year, Eh? Despite my travel anxiety ramping up to a whole new level, Thomas and I had some great trips. A weekend in Lincoln to start the year. A great few days in Edinburgh. A wonderfully sunny weekend with friends in Nijmegen. And a relaxing week in Crete. The big trip of the year for me, though, was the ten days I spent in Cape Town with my mum. While this year hasn't been as. 2016 was also the year I finally finished th...

Nomad Seeks Home: #BEDM Day 27: Hometown
http://nomadseekhome.blogspot.com/2015/05/bedm-day-27-hometown.html
Wednesday, 27 May 2015. BEDM Day 27: Hometown. Though it wasn't all doom and gloom. My last year of Newark was a happier one when I was in my second year at college and went to parties at friends houses. Thanks mum for driving me. Oh and Accessorize opened! I will admit I was excited. I will give it credit though, it made me super determined to get out of there. It pushed me towards Manchester as it was further away and it pushed me to get my drivers license ASAP. What was your hometown like? I can so re...

Nomad Seeks Home: #BEDM Day 29: Passion Projects
http://nomadseekhome.blogspot.com/2015/05/bedm-day-29-passion-projects.html
Friday, 29 May 2015. BEDM Day 29: Passion Projects. Ever since I was 19, I have always had a side project that I have worked on in my spare time. After I shut my vintage shop and jewellery shop 2 years ago (wow has it been that long? I have had a gap in my life where they were. Even though my side projects are never really successful, I still enjoyed the fun of them. It's not quite open yet but here's a couple of things I've been working on for it. Let me know what you think! 30 May 2015 at 18:34. BEDM D...

Bébé Updates - Hazel's Birth Story - J for Jen
http://www.jforjen.com/bebe-updates-hazels-birth-story
Jan 8, 2017. Bébé Updates – Hazel’s Birth Story. Posted in Pregnancy and Baby. Hazel was eight weeks old yesterday – where did the time go? I can’t believe how quickly those eight weeks have passed, but at the same time life without her seems like a distant memory. Certainly, labour and our stay in hospital have started to fade into the background; forgotten in the daily chaos of new motherhood. So I thought I should record that story, before it becomes too hazy. We didn’t go home, though – t...We went t...

2016 – Shutters And Letters
http://www.shuttersandletters.co.uk/2016/12/31/2016
December 31, 2016. It’s been a funny old year. Politics and dying celebrities aside, I’d mark it down as ‘pretty good’ personally. 2016 has seen me learn new things, try new hobbies and reignite old interests. And I’ve kept some up, too, even when I wasn’t sure there was a lot of point. It’s seen me give lectures at universities, and overcome impostor syndrome. October and November in Books →. 4 thoughts on “ 2016. And for what it’s worth, I think blogging resolutions are mostly useless – I s...Blogging ...

Nomad Seeks Home: #BEDM Day 28: Nostalgia
http://nomadseekhome.blogspot.com/2015/05/bedm-day-28-nostalgia.html
Thursday, 28 May 2015. BEDM Day 28: Nostalgia. All of my favourite things in the 90s:. I loved all the little stories and Helga was awesome. Plus Arnold had the best room! Who loves Orange Soda? Kel loves Orange Soda. Is it true? This show really made me want a twin sister! Sabrina the Teenage witch. I still have so many of these lying around! Don't forget, if you take off the tags then they won't be worth as much. Playing hide and seek. Passing notes in class. I made so many of these! BEDM Day 21: Stop!
