Music and Meandering


Happy Monday peeps!

After about 40 minutes talking to Clyde from Spotify… shout out to Clyde… I bring you my Spotify playlist although my account seems to hate logging in….yaaaaay. After a dropped connection, Clyde and I’s conversation was cut short so goodbye Clyde. Bet I made his evening….

Heres a link to my favourite songs of all time. I’d love to hear what songs you are loving right now. Hope you enjoy!
My music picks
 
This week was pretty good as I had an excursion with uni which was pretty fun. Just walked around a massive estate and learnt about how they manage the land in an eco friendly way. The weekend was really relaxing. Went to Millets farm which is basically like a garden centre and farm combined…heaven ik. Had lovely soup which was great as the weather was pretty chilly! Was really nice to have a look at all of the Christmas decorations and start to feel excited for December to come. Looked through the food section and wanted to buy everything. We walked away with Christmas mead. Will be hard to keep that untouched till Christmas! Also saw this goat. There were goats.




Onto my thoughts for the week. Get outdoors everyone! Getting a breath of fresh air really helps to clear the mind. I had a walk through the countryside this weekend and it was pretty cold but the sun was out which made it very lovely. The trees are starting to look pretty bare but I found this one that’s still hanging onto its autumn leaves.



Also I wrote this poem which summed up my little explore;


Out in the green live fields,

Kites bomb, catch and swerve,

Finch in bushes concealed,

Rabbits twitch on nerve,

 
Shadows flit against wheat,

Leaves whirl on the breeze,

Morning dew scented sweet,

Robins puff not freeze.

 
Hope your weeks went well. I have three projects due by Friday.. wish me luck! Anyone got anything nice planned for the week or any music recommendations?

My Menstrual Cup and Me

One of my 2021 resolutions was to try and make environmentally conscious decisions and this has started with my period. The stats regarding period product waste in landfill was something I just couldn't ignore.  "Did you know that conventional sanitary pads contain a high percentage of plastic? One estimate is that pads are made of  up to 90% plastic  – another is that a pack of menstrual pads is  equivalent to 4 plastic bags"  ( Friends of the Earth ). "The average person who menstruates throws away  up to 200 kg of menstrual products  in their lifetime"  ( Friends of the Earth ). Image by  PatriciaMoraleda  from  Pixabay This really made me think about the waste that I was producing each and every month.   I decided it was time for me to try something more environmentally friendly and I decided that I would try menstrual cups. Now don't get me wrong, the idea made me nervous. I had heard horr or stories of leakage, cramp...

Finding the light within the storm

January was a month of lockdown, isolation and teaching from home. A month of sunrises, walks and reading. Dancing, painting, snow falls and quiet. There was beauty where you looked for it. Moments of calm amongst this storm. The snow bought a welcome relief. Some variety to living so cooped up. It felt lovely to feel such coolness in the air and to see the world looking so bright. I built a snowman and felt my worries slipping away. I enjoyed hot chocolates and cosy blankets. February started off much like January but harder. Days working from home felt filled with stress and worry. Long days slumped over a laptop, grinding teeth and headaches, deadlines and lesson plans. However, it has also been filled with love. Valentines day, walks, yummy food and still more memories from this month to make. I wanted to share a few things that are lighting up my life so far in 2021. We all need to find the light in the storm. I downloaded an app called one second everyday and I really recommend y...

2021 - My (Covid safe, applicable and achievable) new years resolutions

2020 has been ... a year! I for one, and I'm sure like most of you, are very pleased to say goodbye to 2020. Its been a challenging year for all with illness, job losses and cancelled plans. Lockdowns, boredom and worry. But its also been a year for growth, time and space. I for one have cherished these things.  I have seen quite a few posts popping up on my social media accounts talking of the mass cancellation of new years resolutions. About giving yourself a break and space to start 2021 slowly. I completely agree, 2020 has been a hard year and there is no point setting resolutions if they bring you more stress than good. However, I love making my resolutions each year. I enjoy focussing on what I have achieved and what I want to carry forward into the next year. I enjoy reflecting and looking at my 'bigger' life goals.  This last year has been difficult and the next seems so uncertain. Usually I would be looking forward to travelling more and meeting up with family and ...
