• Book Review: Do What You Love by MJ Mallon

  

  ‘Do What You Love’ by MJ Mallon is a quick read of 58 pages. It’s a sweet reminder to live life, look back to see how far you’ve come, appreciate all that’s got you this far and look forward to the future. I could read the book in an hour and a half’s time. I’m…

• Wordless Wednesdays: Decked ahead of Christmas

• Thursday Doors: ART- Forgotten

  

  I have no pictures of exotic doors this week to share as I haven’t travelled and I’m uncomfortable with clicking pictures of doors in my vicinity. What I have, are left overs of recent trips I took. So, this week in addition to these pictures, I’m sharing the latest painting I did of a worn-out…
