Also very exciting transfers like Maguire to Manchester United and Aaron Wan-Bissaka to Manchester United. So everyone was excited for the next 9 months of football about to come. Midway…

Book Review: Animal Farm by George Orwell

I believe there is a reason for everything that happens, and some of these happenings are when you read a book.

Then my husband suggested to my eldest son to read the book Animal Farm, and I decided to read it at the same to encourage him. It is a simple book, with profound meaning, especially since I…

Quarantine for One

It is indeed an interesting time to be alive, I never thought I would ever be in a lockdown, certainly not for health reasons. Here in my first statement lies my biggest mistake; the words never and ever, I learned that I should stop making those absolute statements because life has other plans.

This is a better explanation from their website: “Freespira is an innovative, FDA-cleared digital therapeutic, clinically proven to reduce or eliminate debilitating panic attack symptoms.
