INSPIRATION
Fighting Your Inner Weasel
Sometimes you have conversations that if anyone overheard they'd think you had gone totally nuts but they make perfect sense to you. Yesterday, the beloved and I had a heated debate about the name of my inner weasel. Your inner weasel is the part of you...
Retuning
Recently The Minimalists' tweeted the following: Let it go. Change the channel. Turn it off. Unsubscribe. Unfriend. Unfollow. Mute. Block. Walk away. Breathe. A simple reminder to unplug every now and again. So far so good but no. As this...
Gravity Is Non-Negotiable
There's something in the air around me now and I'm having loads of discussions about finding your passion and meaningful work in an insecure economy. People have responsibilities and providing for your family comes first, even if the idea of being professional spoon...
A Short Attention Sp…
One of the freaky side effects of having an anxiety disorder is your attention span becomes goldfish like. It’s due to the constant panic and feeling of impending doom. You are constantly checking for whatever is about to kill you next whether that be a herd galloping...
UnLimbited
You know that thing when you are watching telly and then you overcome with a love for humanity and joy at the wonderfulness of people? Well, that happened on Sunday night watching Shed of the Year. The best things happen when you less expect it. In the...
Flexible Working
From 1 November, I will only work four days per week. This should be the "yay! I only work four days a week soon!" post but it's not. Three years ago I was single and living alone. In that time I met the beloved, met the monkeys, the...
Gorgeousness
I read an essay years ago by Elizabeth Wurtzel that has stayed with me. In it she said that many people are pretty, few are truly beautiful but anyone can be gorgeous as gorgeousness is about the way you see and treat yourself. I've been joining in with...
Being Queen Teacake
I never wanted children. I made that decision early and I have never regretted it. There was a moment two bottles of wine in when I demanded little boy babies from the beloved but I sobered up rapid. When I met my husband I knew he was separated with...
Courage
I've been thinking a lot about courage recently. Not the battlefield, flagging waving variety but the quiet, unnoticed version that slowly changes your world. My best friend recently challenged a parking fine. The act of saying "no, this is not fair"...
Lady Cargers
It's my Mum's birthday today and she doesn't want anything for her birthday. I'm ignoring that. I always was willful. Mum, you've had your pressie, there will be cake later. I love you and I want to say thank you. Thank you for having such a great...
Back to School
It's the first of September! It is nearly autumn and I'm so excited. I'm not a fan of new years resolutions. They usually seem designed to stop you enjoying yourself or make you feel less of yourself but an autumn resolution is a different beast.Back to...
Unsplash
The beloved husband and I work hard to make sure that All About The Fizzy looks good. He is an artist and I am an admirer of beautiful things. We can't take all of the photographs ourselves so we've been using a lot of free resources. It's not always easy to credit...
