Where did January go? A quick update!

Here we are delving into February and I don't really know where January has gone! It's been busy, busy, busy with work and life in general and hasn't left me much time, or energy, to focus on blogging. I feel as though I've dropped the ball a bit in that respect, I haven't had the [...]
