You Don’t Want It Enough? Please. Let’s Talk Real Life
Week In the Life…
It’s time for another ‘Week in the life’ video from me.
The second part of this week included kiddos and travelling for exam purposes. But the weekend required rest—including Mother’s Day!
There was writing, editing, and blogging. I’m so happy that I’ve been blogging every day now!
That’s it for today!
Cheers

🌸 Happy Mother’s Day to all my amazing readers and followers! 💕
🌸 Happy Mother’s Day to all my amazing readers and followers! 💕
Today isn’t just about flowers, breakfast in bed, or handwritten cards (though those are always lovely); it’s about honouring the strength, warmth, and everyday magic of motherhood in all its forms.
Whether you’re a mom, a mother figure, someone who longs to be, or someone who nurtures in quiet, unseen ways—this day is for you. 💗
As a writer, I spend hours weaving stories, but it’s the real-life love, courage, and resilience I see in people like you that truly inspire my work. Your support, encouragement, and thoughtful messages mean more than words can say. Whether you’ve been with me from the start or recently found my books, thank you. You help bring these stories to life.
So today, I want to celebrate your heart, your journey, and the way you show up for others (even on the hard days). I hope you’re taking a moment to treat yourself with the same love you so freely give to others.
💐 May your Mother’s Day be filled with whatever fills your cup: quiet moments, a favourite book, warm hugs, laughter, or simply the peace of knowing you are deeply appreciated.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Here’s to more stories, joy, and love—all year round. 🌷
Happy Mother’s Day!
Cheers!

Week In the Life…
It’s time for another ‘Week in the life’ video from me.
Much happened off-camera, so some days have no recordings! Ooops! No, excuse. I just didn’t think…
We’ve been writing, plotting, travelling, taking kiddo exams, and doing housework since our last chat.
I didn’t have much in the video about Saturday, but we enjoyed a day with some friends at a care facility for mentally disabled adults. It was a blast!
If you ever struggle to enjoy life or see the beauty in life or just notice miracles, please find a way to spend some hours with mentally disabled people. I’m reminded time and again what actually matters.
Maybe one day I will tell you more about this side of my life. It’s not today.
That’s it for today!
Cheers
