So here it is. I’ve started a blog. Clearly.

I’d always thought blogs were wanky, self-indulgent things that Generation Z’ers used to promote themselves or elicit the stereotypical ‘you alright hun’ response from their army of similarly self-obsessed followers. So why the fuck am I doing this?

Well, as I get older, I feel like I have things I want to say and I think that by expressing myself and writing them down, I can hopefully make better sense of how I’m feeling. Also, there are lessons I have learned that I want to pass down to the next generation, especially my kids. I’ve always thought that it is important to learn from your mistakes… but if you can also learn from other peoples’ mistakes then surely that’s a bonus!

Maybe some people will read this. Probably no one will. I’m not doing this for ‘likes’ or for fame, in fact my aim is to try and stay anonymous. I’m doing this for me and for my family.

I will try to update this blog regularly, or as regularly as I can, I mean, life is happening around us, right?!?! I’ll try and make the posts short, digestible and hopefully slightly humorous. But most of all, I’ll try and pass on lessons that I learn on the way through this journey that is life.

Right. Let us begin…
