After an awesome little birthday party for my friend on a canal boat in Leeds in October and an awesome couple of nights at WWE Raw & Smackdown live in November I realised I wanted take control of my social life again, so I planned a few nights out, the first being with my two local (to my new area) friends, first time I had since my wedding night in June! The second being a little trip to Edinburgh in January (something to look forward to after Christmas - which was a lovely one spent with our families) where I stayed over at a friends house and we had a night out to celebrate another friends birthday and tied it in with a tattoo date the next day!
Below is a little gif my friend made after I went to hers for the afternoon the other week! It’s cute things like this I’m so glad I’m back to doing again 😍
It’s all me realise how important it is for me to make sure I spend time with my friends too, make dates and plan stuff, not get so caught up with my business and other things that you can just get into doing daily, stopping you from realising you can break down a day into two, or three or four even!
The last three months I have decided to put more self care effort in, self care is really important, to spend more time of the day doing things that you love doing, it’s so easy to get caught up in sitting for hours on social media after work, talking about doing stuff you want to do, or scrolling Instagram,Pinterest getting ideas and inspiration, but then you need to actually get out there and just do it, I wonder how many hours we waste these days winding ourselves up on the internet? It’s still good to talk, network, share ideas etc, but make sure you always are doing too, don’t live someone else’s life through a screen.
Ive also started up my own bath bomb Instagram account to share my love for bath art even

For when you need a bit more preachiness in your life 🍑
Lush and their 2019 Valentines range got me like 🍆
I’ve also promised myself (and Roxy my Chihuahua - pictured below on a recent walk in the Lake District) that we will go on more adventures rather than just the same walks, I want to explore more, take so many more photos..I think being a photographer you sometimes get that, work and personal thing, your hobby is your job, and I lost that a bit last year. I still took creative shots and star photos but I’m really pushing myself lately and now I’m fully back head over heels in love with taking photos again and I just want to explore my world around me! I’ve got this new feeling of freedom in me.
It’s as if before I was trapped in my own self guilt. Like I always need to be working because I’m my own boss, moving your business is so hard when you have to leave your clients behind but I’m getting there now again so I think it’s lifted a weight off my mind as well...
Anyway basically I’m back on the whole; We’ve only got this life. We need to live it as much as we can. #positivevibesonly
So if you’ve read all this, (thank you) make sure you plan something exciting to do after work tomorrow, don’t just do the same thing, go do something. Anything. If you want ideas, just hit me up, I’m more than happy to give you suggestions based on your interests and where you live etc, don’t get stuck in a rut
Can’t wait to blog about all this amazing vegan goodness that is coming out in the shops lately too! I’m LOVING it as you can imagine!
