You Are My Jackson

A couple of weeks ago I finally got a beautiful new addition to my leg tattoo collection!
Some way somehow it'd been almost eight years prior to this appointment since I'd been tattooed, so I was excited, nervous, and more excited to get it underway.

Since he was born I've wanted a tattoo for Jackson. Not all of my tattoos have meaning, and I'm very much an advocate for getting what you fancy simply because it looks good, but there's been a desire to have a Jackson-specific piece for many years.
For as long as I can remember I’ve sang ‘You Are My Jackson’ to him, a song that is – obviously – ‘You Are My Sunshine’with a few words changed for him. I have voice notes on my phone of him singing it with me as far back as 2020, it’s our song, and I'm sure I’ll still be embarrassingly singing it to him when he’s 30. 

Fresh - Healed

Well Well

Hello again after a nice little break!

Those of you who had 'She'll Never Update This Regularly' on your Kayleigh's Blogging Again bingo card can stamp that one off...


It seems that as time goes on it becomes more obvious that procrastination is my only strong suit - literally I am currently writing this in place of an essay I have due on Tuesday - and it's kind of the only way I can comfortably function, despite being beyond stressful and not actually comfortable at all. It’s really not a superpower, it’s super frustrating, but I can’t seem to operate unless it’s with a sense of urgency. One year later and I’ve still not had anything further in terms of ADHD-based helped and it’s getting to the point where some days feel unmanageable.

Anyway, tangent aside, a lot has happened since I last posted here, and I’d like to do a little roundup before I post another three things and disappear until 2028. I mean hopefully that won’t happen, but none of us will be surprised if it does, right?
