I signed up for extras cover with health fund A about a year ago. After a check up at the dentist, I decided that I would swap to health fund B as I could get better coverage (eg unlimited general dental for a lot of needed maintenance work) for a much better price than health fund A […]

When Do We Actually Need To Be Resilient?
I go through phases that are shitty, cranky inducing times of waking up WAY TOO EARLY. They always pass, but while it’s going on, it leaves me very tired and cranky. Which brings me to… When Do We Actually Need To Be Resilient? Having a lousy sleep before a Monday morning full of “inspiration” on the […]
Forward Is Forward
This came up on my Instagram feed and all I felt was a giant, resounding YES! For so many years when my tonsils made me sick, I was in a pit of frustration at not being able to do what I wanted. I could barely manage work, let alone anything that inspired me. […]
Why Is Insurance So Secretive?
I think the other thing (apart from this) that I struggled with so much when looking into life insurances was the secrecy level. What other products allow you to not tell the consumer if it’s worth applying to purchase? Why Is Insurance So Secretive? The Goal Posts Are Secret This one REALLY irritated […]
Hustle, Part One
For a long time, I’ve made reference to wanting to talk about hustle. More specifically, my hatred of the term. And my dislike of how prevalent it is in any kind of online business these days. Most of the time my articulation of this is rarely better than a scream/groan so this is my attempt […]
Insurance Is Anti Health
In 2017 I took a months-long project to make sure I was covered by all kinds of insurance. It was something I had never looked into in my life. Yep, I had never even had contents insurance before. However, the part I struggled with the most was the personal insurances. Life, income protection, trauma insurance… […]
Easing Into 2018
I haven’t been up to much. I was going to blog about my Christmas Staycation. But I didn’t. Some things happened. Gutting things. Some good things happened. I had a funny day out on Christmas Day at the beach on my own which ended up in a beach tent collapsing on me. I wish I […]
Tiredness Vs Fatigue
Pretty much as soon as that last pesky stitch came out, I finally felt better. Better than I had in a year. The low iron and the tonsillitis (and tonsillectomy) were nearly back to back, leaving me vaguely sick but outwardly functional for most of a year. It’s only since “coming out of it” that […]
I Am Angry
I am tired and cranky. I have had a few people be incredibly entitled to me in recent months and I’m only just realizing that I am angry about it. I am angry at them. I am hurt by them. I am hurt by their lack of understanding that their entitlement really hurt me. […]
Health, Hospitals and Insurance
I have a weird feeling right now. I think things are over. I have no outstanding needs to see a doctor. That is a pretty unfamiliar place to be in for me right now. Health, Hospitals and Insurance Health For three weeks, I had been at my GP weekly to get them […]
