🍜 that sounds about right to me
I was just at the grocery store and overheard a mother and daughter discussing what to have for dinner and the little girl said "I don't care as long as it has noodles" and I was like yes girl yes that is correct

It's been a rough year, between work stress and being ill more often than not, but I get to spend the next week sitting by a river, so there's that.

My anxiety is fighting me every step of the way, but I'm taking myself out to dinner. Choosing a place with an app helps - I push a few buttons on my phone, and food arrives at my table. This makes me happy.

Made kebabs last night. Covered them in so much veg that you can't see the meat, but it's definitely under there 😂

This is always my favourite. Last year's resolution was to live (and eat!) deliciously, and this year is the same!
New years resolution 🦈

The work cafe is still doing right by me.

Watched a squirrel bury two real chestnuts and a decoy one in the front garden this morning 😊

This account is just animal watching now, apparently.

I've seen 3 magpies and a grey squirrel on my commute today 😊

That's it, that's the post. Life has been a lot recently so I'm trying to find and celebrate the little joyful moments.

Work has been mad lately, but I did manage a day out with family this weekend, which was a nice reprieve.

Good morning! If you're feeling down, remember that every day brings us a little closer to the best day of the year:

Halloween!

It's easy to be grumpy when you have a super early commute, but my bus driver is telling everyone 'take care' and 'have a good day' and I think that's lovely. That's the right energy to bring into the day.

Is it healthy? No. Do I care? Also no. It's good for my soul, and that's all that matters.

Working on the locations in my WiP and the clues found in each. Solid list. Can prove the who and how.

Now if only the villain would tell me the why!

My early-morning commute includes seeing two grey squirrels playing in the campus garden I pass on my way to work.

It's the little things that make me happy 😊

Good morning! It may not officially be fall according to the calendar, but it’s already fall in our hearts

Saw an ad promising early access to PSL. And like, first of all, I have no idea how 'early access' works in that context, but second of all...

I am a simple gal. I have simple needs. Gimme.

Time to add another book to the 'good start, bad finish' list. Ah well, on to the next one!

Anybody read anything they really enjoyed recently?

Are you still writing a murder mystery if the first murder in the book is in the last third of the story? (There's an attempted murder in the first few chapters, but it's unsuccessful.)

Is it still a murder mystery? Just a regular mystery? A secret third option?

Some of my favourite flowers blooming in the garden at the moment. Happy Saturday! 🌱

This is the ideal writing process. You may not want to hear it, but this is what peak performance looks like.

Tfw you log in and realise it's been nearly a month since your last post. Whoops.

Found a new cafe near work and I'm really digging it. Might have to make this my new regular stop.
