Life Lately & Belated Celebrations For 9 Years of Zoey Olivia

I’ve been so erratic with my blogging schedule this year. I was supposed to do a celebratory post for my blog’s 9th birthday on the 9th September, but I’ve had zero time sadly. Life be life-ing as usual. I’m a little worried that Autumn and Winter are some of my busiest upcoming months too. Anyway, I just wanted to say…

Little Joys Over The Past 4 Months

I realised my last ‘little joys’ post was written in mid May. So, I’m long overdue to have a big old catch up celebrating small wins and happy memories over the past 4 months.

Mental Health Awareness Week: My Wellness Daily Routine

I’ve just hit pause on Selling Sunset Season 6, episode 8, in attempt to do something fairly productive with my day. Which of course, is to type some thoughts.
