Dry January, Blue January, Try Fun January

People always look at January as a rather depressing time, trying to lose Christmas weight, paying off credit card debt, and dealing with the cold chill; now that the cosy Christmas atmosphere has disappeared.

It's the little things in life that make you smile

The sun beams down hot enchanting rays of golden heat onto my slightly browning skin. A faint breeze sweeps through the air, causing the strands of my ponytail to blow slightly every few seconds.

Gifts for dog lovers

Woof Woof! I hear as yet another excitable pup runs up to greet me in the park. I smile and give them a bit of a fuss before continuing with my walk.

What to buy for a wedding

Seeing friends and family you haven't seen in ages is great. There is also normally free food and drinks (always a winner), and a nice bit of dancing in the evening.

What do you want to be when you grow up?

When I was a little girl, I would gather my teddy bears on the sofa and write their names on a list. I would then call their names one by one and tick them off my list. It was my own little game of playing teacher.

When dry January becomes dry July

Picture this. You are sat on a balcony in Greece in a t-shirt and shorts, overlooking the beach.

Should I bring a gift back from holiday?

I've just stepped off a plane and experienced the beautiful sensation of the warmth of a foreign country's heat hitting my face.

The possibilities of the world are endless

The Sydney trip happened several years ago now when I was twenty years old. It was a graduation gift from my parents, as it has always been a childhood dream of mine and my Mum's to swim with dolphins in Australia together.

Why do we make New Years Resolutions, just to fail

We have all done it, gone to the gym the first week of January to see it swarming full of newbies. Freshly sweaty faces giving it their all and promising to stick to it to shift the Christmas podge and keep their New Year's resolution.

Christmas in a small town

The town I grew up in has a population of about five thousand people, so is probably more of a quaint little village than a town.

Don't hibernate this winter

Much like many other animals, as humans we get hungrier, sleepier and just generally lazier; as doing anything besides sitting inside in the warm becomes unappealing.

Having a life when you are alone

Loneliness is sadly something that affects us all in adulthood. You move out of home, work full time and there suddenly seem to be fewer hours in the day to see friends.
