I was totally unprepared. I admit that quite openly. I did not have any face masks at home. Did not have food supplies. My Wifi was not able to handle long online sessions. Now it is different. I am usually so organised and equipped with my lists right? So I have decided to mention aContinue reading “Getting ready…”

Toxic people will always be there…
Long time ago I wrote about toxic people…
Mini-blocks and mini-burnouts
This might be useful for someone who works at home with a great intensity. That is what I have been doing during the lockdown and it occurred to me – that instead of having a big creative block or a big burnout, I experience a series of small ones. Not sure why it is, butContinue reading “Mini-blocks and mini-burnouts”
Working from home – because that is the only way now…
So…I have completed several weeks of work from home now. And just few months ago I thought that I will never work from home again…. This time round I found it quite hard. I was distracted by what was going on around me. I spent hours watching videos about the pandemic; what to prepare, howContinue reading “Working from home – because that is the only way now…”
What I have learnt from the Corona Virus so far…
It has been a while since the first Corona Virus patient appeared in the media. Since then lots of things happened. What changed in my life and what I have learnt. I was not ready.

Working from home for 8 years – my experience
Well, eight years is a long time and I thought that I should share my own experience. I do see lots of different posts on working from home, passive income and great part-time opportunities. I have worked as translator and project manager for one internet company for many years. It was intense. I had toContinue reading “Working from home for 8 years – my experience”
Thank you for your likes :)
Once I wrote my previous post on toxic people an interesting thing happened – the people who bothered me and in a way inspired me to write the post went away. What happened? Have they read my post? Have they recognised themselves and changed their behaviour? Well, that is very unlikely – although one neverContinue reading “Thank you for your likes :)”
On toxic people and on being yourself
I am just putting few thoughts on the paper about toxic people and how to deal with them. Mainly because I came across few of them quite recently.
Clothes prep to save 10 minutes
I tried to prepare meals for many times before and for some reason – I could not make a habit out of it. But I was desperate to save some time in the morning and I decided to try at least prepare clothes for the whole week and save some time like that. (I doContinue reading “Clothes prep to save 10 minutes”
Finally clean pores!
This is a very short post. One thing that always troubled me were pores. They always seemed too big and with blackheads. I tried everything. Numerous masks from shops and homemade as well. Usually their effect was very short lived. So my misery continued. Always when I went to the beautician for eyebrow shaping sheContinue reading “Finally clean pores!”
