All I have done today is read, paint my nails, watch Netflix. I 🧡 summer. Sooo nice to make time for myself and not feel pressure to do anything !!!!

Althoughhhh Nick and I climbed Kinder Scout in the POURING rain on Sunday (10 mile walk!!) took my sister to Trafford Centre for the first time yesterday (12K steps how can 12 year olds shop so hard😭!!!). NEEDED TODAY.

Last minute, unexpected free periods are 🤩🤩🤩🤩#sorrynotsorry

My (long) weekend is dedicated to the AQA historical environment - Norman Yorkshire. If anyone has any resources they can share, please send them my way. MUCH appreciated 🧡

Best album for marking PPEs? White album. Hands down.

I’m trying to enjoy my life but all I can think is I need to do my Duolingo

First field trip I organised and planned for a whole cohort of Geographers done ✅. They were so well behaved and loved getting out of Manchester to the beach. It’s times like these that I love my job!! Proud of them. Same time tomorrow 😭
