Coronavirus Diary – Page 5 (Staying mentally well)

As you may have read on some of my previous posts, I have been really struggling mentally with the lockdown. I know that this isn’t easy for anyone, but when you have difficulties with your mental health, or even if you have in the past, then this is an extremely overwhelming time. I would just…

Coronavirus Diary – Page 4 (Celebrating lockdown style)

As you may have read in some of my other posts, last year I found the man of my dreams and in the Glitterverse (here) he would rather not use his real name, so I call him The Idea Guy. He got this nickname because he is always giving me great new ideas of things…

What to do now?…
