What would your life be like without music?
Black and white with shades of grey.
I’m not a great singer, I wasn’t blessed with the vocal talents of an angel, however, music brings meaning into my life.
Think about a day when you are feel sad, bursting with joy or just meh, it’s easier to define it through music.
Music has the ability to turn my frown upside down, bring back memories shared with those loved ones who have passed as well as kick start my day!
Describe your ideal week.
No arguments with my partner
Getting enough sleep (depends on my baby’s mood 😅 she’s the boss 🤣 seriously, she is)
Blogging on time
Eating cooked meals Sunday to Thursday including making my own breakfast and lunch
Date night organised by my partner (he’s terrible at this 😑)
Cleaning the house and keeping it tidy all week (good indicator of my mental health)
Going outside for some fresh air (the dream)
What are you doing this evening?
Trying to maintain peace by not being angry at my partner for saying something silly that ruined my mood and I let it go on for too long today. I’ll start making dinner, cooking always makes me feel good! Thank you mamani (grandma) for teaching me how to cook ♥️♥️♥️
How often do you walk or run?
I used to enjoy taking walks daily, however, I’ve not done that in forever and I’m scared to try again 😭😭😭 when my anxiety flares up, leaving the house is the first sign 🥺 anyone got tips on how I can go back (I have a small baby)?
What are your favorite types of foods?
Food that touches your soul ♥️ take me back to Lou Lou in Bordeaux (best duck I ever tasted)!!! Bathen house in Bath (who knew pidgin breast taste like sweet music in your stomach)!!! I can go on and on, I enjoy food made from the heart with passion and soul 🤤🤤🤤
Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.
You have got to always pay yourself first in life. Only when you are ok can those around you be ok. As a bonus it avoids feelings of resentment and unrealistic expectations from those you’ve placed above yourself. And if you struggle with that, go for therapy, it will help heal those events resulted in people-pleasing as a coping mechanism. I’ve been there, sometimes still there, it’s a long hard journey, definitely worth it ♥️
How do you celebrate holidays?
Cooking up a storm!!!
Adulting & Motherhood
