Hey!

I didn't have much time today to write a post so I decided to catch up with you guys! What have you been up to? Have you seen any good shows or movies lately? Try anything new? Let me know in the comments below because I would love to find out what's going on with you! I've been watching The Office again and apparently so has everyone else right now 😂 It's comforting since it's so wholesome and I've already seen it so I know what episodes I like. I watched Scrubs for a while and it was pretty good.…

Wordless Wednesday - Nature's artwork.

Nature is so fascinating. Last week when I was on the beach, I found these beautiful patterns on a sea. Something like trees without branches, I loved it. What you guys think? Thanks for visiting 💖, © Anjali Sharma, Positive Side Of The Coin

Islands of Brittany II

Home to some seventy per cent of the island bodies of metropolitan France, the 800 islands and islets that surround the coast of Brittany offer something for everyone. Some support vibrant communities while others are home to only seabirds and the occasional visitor. Here is a brief sketch of some of the main inhabited islands that were not looked at in an earlier post, starting with those off the south coast and moving counter-clockwise along Brittany’s northern coast. Île aux Moines On Brittany's southern coast, the beautiful inland sea known as the Gulf of Morbihan is peppered with 42 small…

Inflammation: The good, the bad, the necessary??

Over the past three years, I have witnessed my body changing and responding in amazing ways to the consistent exercise and the much healthier diet that I have adopted. I have been able to transform my outward appearance, which was of course the original goal when I started out on this journey, but what I have come to realize is the changes that have occured from the inside out are the ones that have had the greatest impact on my life. Putting the physical changes aside for the moment, one of the most striking ways my body has responded to…

5 UK Staycation Destinations I Want To Visit Post COVID

AD - This is a collaborative post I've mentioned it before on my blog but I love a staycation. To me, a staycation is a holiday taken in your home country. For me, that's the UK. A staycation is NOT a holiday in your own damn house. Just wanted to clear that up to avoid the confusion. But yeah, I bloody love a staycation and exploring the UK is something I've really missed. Photo by Andrei Ianovskii on Unsplash I've not been abroad for a number of years, instead opting to explore different areas of the UK and what it…

The Metro Card & New Money - Doha, Qatar

It has been a hot minute since I posted an update here. My excuse this time? Well, life has actually just been boring. I mean, in blogging & entertainment terms it has been boring. I’ve been going to work & spending time with friends – not really things to write about. I miss traveling so much & I hope to be back with more exciting travel stories as soon as I can. For now, all I have to talk about is life in Qatar & I’ll be sharing two things about that in this post. Firstly, I use the metro…

A Day in The Life of My Anxiety

Anxiety is something I have lived with for years. Although it's never been diagnosed by a doctor - and I for one don't think its needs to, its still something that I struggle with almost daily. It's not as bad as it once has been. The panic attacks are few and far between but I do still find myself suffering from intrusive thoughts and worry. I know that its something I will probably live with my whole life, and I have learnt to accept that. But knowing this doesn't make it any easier to deal with. For todays post I…

The Night the Sky Fell

Our lights went out Friday night at 8:30 pm. We really didn’t think much about it because we were getting a little freezing rain and drizzle. So we talked with our two small battery powered lanterns lighting our TV room for a little while. When the lights were still out an hour later we decided to go to sleep early. We figured the lights would come back on in a few hours. Nothing to worry about. We were wrong about the electricity and we were wrong about the amount of ice falling out of the sky. Just before midnight we…

Clunky software with a confusing UI just cost Citibank $500 million

Facepalm: Citibank is learning a costly lesson in software design as a triple-checked mistake caused the bank to send out almost a billion dollars in loan payments instead of only $7.8 million. Citibank blamed the blunder on an Oracle banking program with a confusing user interface. On Wednesday, a judge ruled that creditors do not have to return payments that Citibank made to them in error. The bank was attempting to make $7.8 million in interest payments on behalf of Revlon last August, but a subcontractor in India handling the transaction mistakenly issued $900 million instead. The ruling described the overly confusing process…
