It’s a new year, and the time of year when everyone including bloggers, think about their plans and goals for the next year. A big part of growing a blog is being part of a the blogging community and learning…
Whoa, week 11 already. It’s scary how quickly time moves on although I should really expect that. This week’s been a lot about the improving weather, getting out a lot more. That’s pretty lucky as my lent promise to give…
I’m a bit of a book lover, although I do go through phases of not reading much at all…that’ll be last October and December then. I did however, still manage to complete my 50 books challenge in 2013 which was…
