Happy 2nd Birthday to Glitter In The Darkness! :D
Wow I can’t believe that I have had my very own blog for two years now! Quite often I have these “brilliant ideas” and they last a few days or weeks, then nothing ever comes of them. I did wonder if my blog would be another one of those things. It sounded like a good…

Well… I DESPERATELY don’t want to jinx this, but things are starting to look quite positive around here in England. Definitely a lot more positive than things have been before.

Yesterday it was my boyfriend and I’s first anniversary. It is really exciting and special for both of us. I can’t belive that he has put up with me for a whole year. I definitely haven’t made it easy for him. Despite all my faults and mistakes he still loves me and that really does…
Discovering Video Calling
Over the past few months video calls seem to have taken over just about everything. Calling friends, work meetings, TV shows, hospital appointments, they are all being done over a video call. It seems to be the safest way to see other people. We haven’t been able to meet in person because of Covid-19, so…
Coronavirus Diary – Page 14 (A mug of frothy familiarity)
