Change is a very good thing… | Rosie Abigail
To quote Obi-Wan Kenobi, “hello there”. To quote myself, “long time, no see, eh?” It’s been a little while since I’ve been in the blogging sphere, a few months in fact. I’m sorry for not heading off with an interim “I’m off!” post or a “see ya in August!” message. You see, I hadn’t planned…

May Favourites 2022 | Books, Style, and … COVID?
Well, this post is a little late. I guess that’s what happens when you get COVID… I’m on the road to recovery now, but at the very end of May, COVID hit me for the second time. And this time was bad. We had the paramedics out for my asthma, oxygen monitoring for a week,…

One hundred and seventy six days. That’s how many days until my next holiday! It’s not like I’m counting down or anything… I’ve lost count of the amount of times I’ve slapped my hands on my desk, audibly sighed, and announced “I need a holiday”. With my hen do next month, wedding in July, and…

I Am Not Losing Weight For My Wedding Day | Rosie Abigail
I’ve got a chubby belly. Arms that wobble. Thighs thicker than a bowl of oatmeal. And I’m not losing any of it for my wedding. Not that it should be anyone’s business. My body, my rules after all. However, since I got engaged almost two years ago, I’ve felt that pendulum start swinging – one…

Colours, patterns, prints! A splash of pink, yellow, green! Dresses, skirts, crop tops! Don’t mind me, just looking into my wardrobe. If fourteen year old, Blue Banana, Tumblr era Rosie could see me now, she would be so disappointed. Nowadays, as a twenty-something creative mess, I am a huge fan of dopamine dressing. Cue some…

Dealing with COVID Health Anxiety | Rosie Abigail
If there is one thing I like to think I am an expert on, it’s being anxious. Okay, it wouldn’t be my Mastermind category (that would be on Walt Disney World, in all honesty), and I’m not an expert in the clinical sense. But with over eight years of anxiety under my belt, I like…

Owning Your Introversion | Rosie Abigail
“How’s your meter?” What, my meter reading? Well, it’s pretty damn high thanks to this inept government. “No, your social meter, you silly soul.” Oh. Yeah. That thing. That’s a glimpse of a conversation I have with my partner, almost daily. My social meter is slang for how I’m feeling mentally and socially. Each time,…

Talking to Your Boss About Chronic Illness | Rosie Abigail
I won’t sugar-coat it, living with a chronic illness can be ruddy hard. And I mean beyond the actual chronic or condition part of it. I’m talking about the expectations and understanding of other people. Speaking from experience, that’s a different kind of struggle. So many people in the world do not understand (or choose…
