It was another surprisingly busy week this week, so before I knew it August had come to an end and Blaugust has finished

#Blaugust2022 ~ Day 24 ~ Rohan House

#blaugust2022 Rohan House, Treebeard #lotro

I really love this house, it has such a nice atmosphere. It can be made even more cosy with the ambient lighting system they introduced. This house is on Treebeard, so the decorations are obviously limited to the current level cap. I have closed off the basement and one downstairs side room, in order to use the hooks in the rest of the house. I do wish we could colour the walls to match but to…

#Blaugust2022 ~ day 23 ~ Belfalas House

#Blaugust2022 Belfalas House #lotro

My main house on Laurelin, it’s not finished (are they ever?!) but it is in a state that I am mostly happy with. I have closed off the upstairs and used those hooks in the rooms downstairs. It’s a bit messy as I haven’t found a satisfactory way of using the walls to hide the stairs. Inside, you start with the entrance hall, go through to the kitchen / dining area (I have also closed off 2 of the…

Blaugust 2022 - 18 - 2 truths and a lie

Thought we'd play a quick fun game in the comments...

We played this game at work a few years back and it was really fun, though some people knew each other too well so it was easy. But I thought this could be a fun game to play with the comments! Basically, each person makes 4 statements – 3 of them should be true, and one should be a lie, and everyone just needs to guess what the lie is. I’ll post mine here – you post yours in the comments and…

#Blaugust2022 ~ Day 22

#blaugust2022 Day 22 (sort of)

Oh well, days 7-21 didn’t happen! Nevermind, this is a busy month and I’m completely out of routine. I’ve hardly been at my PC during the last couple of weeks so I don’t have much to write about – this post is really just to say that I am still here and it probably doesn’t really count as an actual blaugust post. However, I am hoping to be able to post more frequently for the last part of…

Blaugust 2022 - 17 - tarot tales

Tarot for me isn't about 'predicting the future'... I use it for reflection and clarity, creative inspiration, and a wee bit of therapy.

I originally started writing this post for post 15 the other day but realised a bit of background was required because for anyone who has known for me for awhile, they’d probably be surprised to read I enjoy tarot. But, context has been given, now I can talk about this. There’s apparently a “rule” that you have to be given your first tarot deck. Believe it if you want to… I didn’t know how I was…

I promised in my earlier BuJo post that I would share some of the stationery I purchased to set up my bullet journal. Well, here is that post!

Blaugust 2022 - 13 - rest

I hit the wall this week. The past few weeks have finally caught up with me and exhaustion hit me like a truck today.

I hit the wall this week. The past few weeks have finally caught up with me and exhaustion hit me like a truck today. Thankfully I have managed to get the really important deadline stuff done, so this afternoon- as I’m trying my hardest not to fall asleep at my desk and failing- I just decided ‘stuff it’, I’m taking Friday and Monday off to give myself a 4 day weekend. Checked with my boss that…
