First time ever on a cruise and 100% my last. I honestly do not see the appeal. The best part of the holiday is getting off the boat and getting a beer for €3. Can’t wait to get home and see my cats.

Solid ground and good coffee in Santander

Home from the cruise. Bought myself a little treat in Carrefour to see me through term 6 👀

Had a gastroscopy this morning and honestly it was truly a traumatic event so much so I tried to pull the scope out and was pinned to the gurney by 3 nurses. As soon as the scope was out I had a panic attack and have been on the verge of tears all day. The worst med procedure.

The perk of a sister in law to be being a florist is that my wedding flowers have cost £50. 3 bridesmaid bouquets, 1 bridal bouquet, 4 buttonholes and 2 corsages. Bargain.

I’ve now also finally sorted ceremony music with the brass band I play in. A childhood friend is playing a gorgeous trombone solo as we sign the register. It’s all going to be very bloody beautiful.

Woke up with conjunctivitis this morning and I feel it’s the universe giving me a sign that I need a break

This is theft of my intellectual property at this point, who am I suing???

No greater way to welcome in the summer holidays than a trip to the theatre to watch one of my bucket list shows: The Book of Mormon. Absolutely incredible stuff.

Been rewatching Ted Lasso recently, and the kids at school have all been watching it too. There’s so many motivational quotes that relate to school in there so I have began my ‘School According to Ted Lasso’ display. Just need to find some Roy Kent quotes that aren’t sweary🤣

2 weeks tomorrow, I get married. Which is insane to me, to think that 5 and a half years ago I went on an arranged date with a friend’s brother and now we’re getting married. Ironically, we went bowling and played pool for our second date (8hrs after the first).

Wedding signage is coming along nicely, albeit wonky in places 🤣 Why I decided to make all of this rather than buy it is beyond me

The best day 🫶❤️ 09.08.25
