A Whinge

Melancholy Mummy Posted on December 24, 2020 by MelancholyMummyDecember 24, 2020

I don’t know if it’s the light depression from the pandemic and lack of seeing other people and missing my family or just a bad time for my CFS… but I’m so tired lately. I’m having a hard time doing … Continue reading →

The Owl Sticker

Melancholy Mummy Posted on December 13, 2020 by MelancholyMummyDecember 13, 2020

The tiny tyrant was given some stickers by her nonna recently. Apparently, she had stashed a couple somewhere in the flat without me realising, and one morning came running up to me: “Mummy! Owl in my nose!!” I look inside … Continue reading →

Our handsome, old boy. He turned 14 at the start of March, and is finally starting to show his age. Hopefully he will still be with us for several more years. ♥
And then edit like a fiend! It's good advice to keep yourself from worrying too much about what people will think, but I personally write better if I think at least *someone* will read it!
I’m finally ready to start on my next WIP, the third novel in the Howerty series (regency romance). To get myself in the right headspace, I made a little mood board for the story.

Today is Mothering Sunday here in the UK. I've had the privilege of being the mother to this tiny tyrant for just over three years now. It's the most rewarding - and the most challenging - thing I've ever done! She is a handful (hence the tiny tyrant moniker), but she's also loving and sweet, with a wonderful sense of humour.
Romance is on a high in the Morgans household.
