Birthday dinner with my love

Hello!

Hi folks! I thought I’d pop into my blog to say hello and, yes, I’m still alive! Haha ? I know it has been a while since I posted, but, you know, life has been busy. I would like to start posting more at fangornfarm, but things will look different because life is a bit […]

Nanowrimo 2019

Nanowrimo 2019

My experiences of nanowrimo this year have mostly been positive. The most positive thing about it was hitting 50,000 on Wednesday, the 27th.

Ok, so I’ve been feeling good this week (second week of my second round of chemotherapy), so I’ve been enjoying time in the kitchen, cooking up yummy meals for the family. This week I bought a new waffle maker that cooks 4 waffles at a time, as opposed to our original one, which only made […]

One thing I've learned from Chemotherapy

One thing I’ve learned from Chemotherapy

I’m almost at the end of my first round of chemotherapy. There’s a lot that has happened, and I wanted to write about my experiences, but I didn’t know where to start. So, I decided to write about one thing I’ve learned so far. It’s hard to narrow it down to one thing though. I’ve […]
