Inflation, Puppets, and the Great Reset…
I’m sitting here tired after a long day in the charity shop, and one thing I can’t ignore anymore is how many people are turning to second-hand.

Aliens, Ancestors, or Just a Cloud? You Decide…

Aged to Imperfection…
Daily Writing Prompt: What do you think gets better with age? You know what gets better with age? Me. Like a fine wine? Nah. More like a battered old whiskey barrel, a little rough around the edges, full of strong opinions, and no longer pretending to be sweet when I’m really not. Somewhere along the…
