The Small Things Spreading Joy in April

May 7, 2023

Spring has well and truly sprung so there was much blossom and many other beautiful blooms shared during the month, as well as a few more random items. Enjoy! And this is the video I shared instead of a photo in the middle of the month: just over a minute of the stream flowing through … More The Small Things Spreading Joy in April

The Small Things Spreading Joy in March

April 2, 2023

I spent the start of month feeling very under the weather so some of the photos I shared were from rather a long way back in my photo roll. I decided they counted since looking for them whilst I was coughing and wheezing and feeling deeply miserable certainly lifted my spirits, however I’ve captioned them … More The Small Things Spreading Joy in March

The Small Things Spreading Joy in February

March 5, 2023

The shortest month of the year and, for me, often the hardest as it can feel like winter is never ending and the grey cold days will go on forever. Yet there are all the signs of spring if you look for them, which taking and sharing these photos ensured I did. If you’re wondering … More The Small Things Spreading Joy in February

The Small Things Spreading Joy in December

January 7, 2023

So, this is the fifth month of posting daily small things that spread joy. It’s doing me no end of good and, judging by the messages I’ve received on the various social media sites I post them on, it seems to be brightening other people’s days too. I’m so pleased that this is helping other … More The Small Things Spreading Joy in December

The Small Things Spreading Joy in November

December 1, 2022

Another month over and I would very much time to slow down for minute! I spent the first half of November in Northumberland, location hunting for the house move which, by hook or by crook, will be happening next year. The second half was mostly spent in the back of cupboards wondering when the Doctor … More The Small Things Spreading Joy in November

The Small Things Spreading Joy in September

October 13, 2022

My quest to find calm in the middle of the maelstrom that is the world continued unabated through September. If I’m honest this project has felt even more necessary with every day that passes and it has definitely helped me to keep hold of hope when I might otherwise have given in to despair. I … More The Small Things Spreading Joy in September

Spreading Joy with The Small Things

August 31, 2022

At the start of August I looked around at the state of the world, took a peek at state of my brain, and made the conscious decision to try and curate my online space to be somewhere as peaceful and calm as I could make it. That isn’t to say I decided to wash my … More Spreading Joy with The Small Things
