Found some friends on our walk this morning 🩷

Let the bells ring
Here my arms are open wide
Send the old year out on the rolling tide
Let the sun rise
There is nothing now I fear
Let the sun rise on a happy New Year

Here’s to drawing a line, moving on and making the most of a new start.

Happy New Year ❤️

Santa update. It didn’t end well….

Wishing you all a very Happy Christmas. I hope Santa has already been because in the paws of this one I give him roughly 6 minutes to live….😂🎅🏼

I have this on the wall at the bottom of my stairs.

I am not where I thought I would be this Christmas - or with the person I had planned to be with - but despite everything I am still breathing, I am going to be okay and I have come a very long way, baby 🩷

Due to the cowardice of one man, the last 3 months have left me utterly broken.

Today, because of an amazing woman it feels as if things are changing and the sun is coming out again.

Thank you @msnottledim.bsky.social 🩷

Without downloading any new pics where are you mentally.

It’s been an emotional weekend, but out of the mess that has been this year - and the last few months especially - a new friendship has been born and for that I will be forever grateful ❤️

A gorgeous day today in York, somewhere very special I didn’t think I’d be emotionally strong enough to go back to but I did, and I have laughed a lot, cried a little and had a wonderful time. Line drawn, it’s time for me to move on 😊

And relax…..cheers folks 🥂

It’s Friday, it’s the last day of term & in 9 hours I’ll be in the pub. Yay 🎉. Have a lovely day 😊

Now, no one panic, but not only have I finally given in and put my Christmas jumper on, but I am also wearing my Christmas earrings….😁🎄😂

After a couple of weeks of doing pretty much okay I’m feeling overwhelmingly sad this morning, so here’s a photo of my dog who finally sat still long enough last night for the groomer to take her photo. Aw 😊🐕🎄

Good morning 😊

Tonight I went to a gig on my own for the first time. This woman’s music has always meant so much to me and tonight was magical, so thank you Kate and the boys for a very special evening - I am feeling very festive now ❤️

Beautiful late afternoon dog walk in my favourite place 😊

Off to spend an hour in the company of the newly ex in-laws for the first time post split. Thoughts and prayers please……

After what has felt like endless rain, the view from my bedroom window is back. Feels kind of appropriate 😊
Have a lovely Saturday x

Party ready 🎄

Nobody panic. Work Christmas “do” in a little over 11 hours and I still have no idea what I’m wearing…….😫😱

This is the face of someone who has just decided to throw up all over my lounge carpet 3 minutes before I am due to leave for work. Yay!
