Not going to lie, this post comes straight from my bed. The bed I have been dreaming about crawling back into since 9am this morning (it's now 11:48pm on Sunday night) and one of the places I love being the most. I never used to be one for staying in bed, I'm happier plodding about… Continue reading Snug as a bug in a rug

Hello and thank you for popping over to my personal blog!
I won't promise you any posts of incredible stature here, its more a collective of the stories of a woman working and living in Glasgow, Scotland.
I enjoy travelling, reading, writing letters to my penpals, photography, playing video games, my two wee cats Ellie and Susie, charity shop hunting, cooking, baking and going on adventures with my friends or my husband Johnny. You can expect to see lots about them all in my posts.
I love living in Glasgow, even after living here for years, I still find new places to explore and fall in love with.
Please do not hesitate to contact me, my blog email is weefatonion@gmail.com
Sunday Sunday…
After chatting to the husband about old routines we used to have when we were younger, I have decided to go back to my old Sunday routine - cleaning! When I was younger I was super disciplined - I would get up early and have the house sparking by lunch time. This suited me so… Continue reading Sunday Sunday…
Old New Friend
So I've gone back to playing Final Fantasy 14... This time I am playing very casually though! I really can't dedicate the time required to be a decent player but it's nice to plod and and enjoy the game at a leisurely pace. And I'm not playing as my old character either. I've purposely rolled… Continue reading Old New Friend
Spring cleaning
This week we waved off our flatmate Kat, who has found herself a perfect flat in Glasgow for herself. Whilst I really miss her, I am happy knowing she has a beautiful little space to call her own that I know she is going to make into a comfy little Kat cave! It really does… Continue reading Spring cleaning
Our Japanese honeymoon adventure, March – April 2017
Now we are home and utterly miserable, I wanted to write about our Japan honeymoon in an attempt to cheer myself up and hopefully make for some interesting reading! We had been planning this honeymoon before we had even considered where we were going to get married! Whilst sitting in the departure lounge in March… Continue reading Our Japanese honeymoon adventure, March – April 2017
Soon…soon…
Tomorrow is my final day (well half day) at work before we jet off on our honeymoon! I still cannot believe that we are finally heading back to Japan! We have sorted out where we want to go, who we want to see and what we want to do. We just have to get there… Continue reading Soon…soon…
This time, 2 years ago
I looked slightly different... We were in Kyoto and paid a visit to AYA Geisha & Maiko experience where I finally got to try a real kimono on and was made up like a Maiko (trainee geisha). We had a photoshoot too, as part of the package. It was an amazing day! And we return to Kyoto… Continue reading This time, 2 years ago
Living for the weekend
Since starting my new job, I really have come to realise just how precious my weekends are. The oppertunity to relax and see my friends and family means so much more to me now than it ever has done in the past! Even when I am just sitting on the couch with a book, now… Continue reading Living for the weekend
Regaining the joy of reading
My wonderful parents-in-law bought me a Kindle Paperwhite for my Christmas and since then I have been HOOKED! I loved reading when I was younger but I have hardly read since University, where I managed to burn myself out reading for my degree (thanks, English Language & Literature!) and reading lost all enjoyment. It no… Continue reading Regaining the joy of reading
Training in Croydon
The last few weeks I have been a little Croydon bird, living in a hotel and attending training for my new job. I'm currently in week 4 of 5 and I feel like the training is starting to settle into my brain, I'm putting it into practice so it's making sense at last! I have… Continue reading Training in Croydon
