May 2025 Favourites.

 May went by oddly quickly. Here are some favourite moments and things from this month.  May was a mix of good and grief. I read 15 books. Watched so many horror films. Enjoyed the rains. Saw incredible sunsets.  Ate mangoes. Cried. Worried. Cold coffee was made with ice cream.  Life was lived. 

May Be Things Will Look Up.

Hello I’ve been missing in action.  I am still here.  May has been low-key brutal. But I’m still here.  Journaling and Planning.  Forever grateful for the grey skies and rains.  Finding solace in books and stories. Anything to escape real life.   I don’t know what happened this month, but I just kept ignoring and forgetting about this space. I didn’t mean to.  I promise. I walked into this month with a lot of joy and hope and then life happened. A whole lot of mess all at once. Ugg.  Life went on pause.  My Mum is seriously unwell. She has Dementia, she’s had multiple strokes. It’s bad, as bad as it can be.

Monday Mood: 5/5/25

 What today looked like:  5.5.25  Monday  Good Books.  Good Coffee.  A spot of journaling. 

Stationery Sunday: May Journal.

May Goals~ Read, Read & Read.

 All I want to do this month is lose myself in my books and ignore the world and all my problems. 

Happy Ray Day!

 Happy Ray Day to everyone who celebrates.  Satyajit Ray is hands down my favourite Filmmaker, Writer and Bengali 😎 There will never be another quite like him.  So every year on his birth anniversary I re-read some of his stories and re-watch some of his incredible films.

Hello May 2025! {Journal Pages & Current Reads.}

 Hello May! May you bring Flowers and Mangoes and Good Books. May you bring Peace and Calm.  Here’s how I began this Month:  Started two incredible books. Heart Lamp is excellent and I am only three stories in!  Manohar Malgonkar’s historical books are an favourite of mine and this is the third book of his I’m picking up, so my hopes are high.  Hoping the rest of May is just  as stellar. 💛
