August Round-Up & September Goals!

Sunday 30 August 2015


September is quite literally just around the corner, and hopefully this year is much like every year previous and there will be a glorious little September heatwave! Just you know, to fool us into thinking that we've actually had some nice weather this summer, before we can settle nicely into Autumn and every amazing thing it has to offer!

Queen of the Tearling by Erika Johansen
I bought this book from Easons when David & I were down in Dublin for the day last Friday, I started reading it on Monday, during my breaks in work, and I had it finished on Wednesday!

#WeBlogSummer: 10 Things I've Learnt This Summer

The incredible view of Carlingford Lough from Cloughmore Stone.
This weeks #WeBlogSummer post is going up a teensy bit later than usual. Like, 3 full days late. Apologies! Last week I was pretty organised, I planned and scheduled 2 posts to go live while I was away camping (you check those out here and here if you're interested!). I was so proud of myself, because I am notoriously unorganised when it comes to posting. I don't really have any sort of schedule and posts come and go as I think of them!

Camping
David and I went away on a camping trip, from Sunday to Thursday of this week and it was absolutely glorious! To be honest I wasn't too keen on going for so long, I kinda thought that 2 nights, 3 at a push, would be more than enough time spent in a tent...after all, when we went to Gosford in May we only camped for 2 nights.

#WeBlogSummer: Trends!

Monday 10 August 2015

Hello! Welcome to a new week and another #WeBlogSummer post!

I decided to give last weeks post a miss, partly because I was quite busy and didn't get a chance to sit down and write it, and partly because I didn't actually know what to write about!

My blog re-name & re-design
I'd been talking about doing this for so long, and I finally got round to it on Tuesday night! If you like, you can have a nosey at my introductory post here!

David's Birthday - The Highlights!

Friday 7 August 2015

On 22nd July David turned the grand old age of 23! Cue many tears and much crying, from him. I'm perfectly happy, because it means for the next 5 months I am only 1 year older than him! It's the simple things in life, right?

Last night I went ahead and did something I've been meaning to do for ages...I updated and changed my blog name! What Danielle Loves is no more. There are permanent redirects set up though, so hopefully there are no hiccups with links etc.

July Round-Up & August Goals!

Sunday 2 August 2015

So here we are at the beginning of yet another new month! August has rolled around, and we should be basking in glorious sunshine, enjoying all the delights that Summer has to offer! Instead, I'm sat inside, watching Harry Potter with background music of rain battering against the window. Definitely not good summer weather. It feels more like October or November, than August!
