May, Myself and I; Red Lips
This post is a day late, but I really had no idea what to write about for this prompt. Also, some days I need a break from blogging every day so just had a chilled morning yesterday before work. My anxiety has been high so journaling along with deep breathing was more beneficial to me than typing a blog post when I wasn't feeling in the mood to share my thoughts. My mental health is my main priority so I do what I need to do to look after it and myself.
Carrie Hope Fletcher's May, Myself and I
This week I was going to sit down and brainstorm ideas of what blog posts to write this month, and then Carrie Hope Fletcher who I follow on Instagram and YouTube posted an Instagram story about her thoughts on posting a video on her YouTube channel every day for the month of May. She's calling it 'May, Myself and I' a title which I love!
She asked her followers to suggest video ideas and here are the prompts she's picked from their suggestions.
April Love
Here are the photos for April Love week three, four and the last two days of the photo prompt challenge.
April Love 2019
I am doing Susannah Conway's free photo prompt for April again this year. She shares the prompts on her website and social media and it’s to help us get out of our head, look around and pay attention to our surroundings a bit more. There is a private Facebook group and the photos can be shared on Instagram as well should you wish.
Happy Blogaversary!
On April 9th 2018 I created this very blog [originally on Blogger], and the next day I posted my very first post on here. The post was called 'Blurt's Self Careathon Day One' which was the Blurt Foundation's self-care prompts for the month of April last year. I decided to write blog posts for them and I managed to complete all the prompts by writing a few up on a day off and scheduling them to go up on the designated days. I was a few days late to the party, but it was a very beneficial thing to do to get me into the habit of posting content, and also thinking about possible future content as well.
I Had A Birthday!
On Friday it was my birthday. I'm not one to be the centre of attention so don't really do big parties or gatherings for it. One time a few years ago a couple of my friends threw me a small three-person (including me) birthday celebration which they did about two weeks before my birthday and they made me believe it was just going to be an afternoon of catching up. Very sneaky but it was unbelievably nice of them to do that.
2019 Goal and Reading List Update
Now we are three months into 2019, I thought it was time to review my 2019 goals and reading list.
Spring Photos!
We are halfway through March now and we have had a range of weathers and temperatures within the last month and a bit. We had a fake spring in February where we were all lulled into thinking spring had come early, but alas, it wasn't here to stay. It went cold again and it is currently pouring with rain while I am typing this out.
February Update
We are already into March! January dragged on for about a year and February lasted about a week! Did anyone else think that?
I've had an unintentional hiatus from posting, I don't know why other than I didn't seem like I had anything to write about. Here's a little update on a few things that have been going on.
