I should call this ‘Specs Fest’ and turn it into a series the amount of glasses I’ve tried on recently.

Shop 1. Walked in, got a smile, got opinions. Exactly what you want, advice from an expert.

Shop 2: not even a hello. I actually thought the two staff members were customers also wondering around looking lost. So awkward.

Anyway — the main event 👓
Pair 1: giving French film club president.
Pair 2: don’t talk to me until I’ve had my oat flat white.
Pair 3: …1980’s primary school vibes, 🩵
Pair 4: …Hides tired eyes perfectly. 👀
Pair 5: …Good enough for the bro 👊

The twist? I forgot the brand name 🙈 (classic me). So can you help me out here? The last slide has my top 3 picks but I need the names so I can actually make a decision 🥰

Ok, over to you lot:
Which are we voting for?
Slide 6 - Pair 1, 2 or 3?
And bonus Q: does the whole service thing matter to you, or am I just a stickler for a good vibe?

Realising I’m 100% normal with a fabulously non-normal brain 🧠

1. Loving my .thestore tee 🍣🧡

2. Clearly the peach was juicy & ripe, clearly I did not wait til I got outside, use a plate or eat it over the sink - clearly this was going to happen (and no the stain isn’t out all tips are welcome)

3. After battling thru the jungle of weeds for weeks I cut them all down then abandoned the garden waste where I’d finished 🙈

4. With 30 minutes to spare I knew I had time to bleach + scrub the grout whilst in the shower washing my hair, get out and decide to mop the floor before getting dressed (one of my more manic moments)

5. Running late after number 3, still convinced I can get to Winscombe in 10 minutes then get stuck behind the waste lorry - on a Saturday - my chimp brain is now having a field day with me 🐒

Moral of the story is - don’t skip the meds on a weekend.
What was your crazy/ridiculous/frustrating adhd moments this week, no judgement just the ability to laugh at our crazy brains 🥰🧡✨

About last night and about last week…
When one drink turns into a night out it’s 💯% grid worthy.

✨ (Nearly) All of us 🧡
✨It’s definitely a pepper mill moment
👗 How short is my dress?
✨How it started
✨ Food & 🍸
🪩 How it went
✨ Pup walks
✨ Seagulls
✨ Leopard print for days
✨ Sea Shanty’s
✨ Lifting
✨ Contemplating my CrossFit choices
✨ August rains
✨ Local fire crew helping me install smoke alarms - did you even know this was a thing they did?

Wow, this week was not on my bingo card for January, but challenges have to be faced head on, and there’s no one else to help clean-up my mistakes & whoa was this a biggie.

Monday: Gave the dog a ‘natural’ chew, she sucked it up so fast it got lodged in her intestine

Tuesday: spent 24 hrs not realising what was wrong & worrying about her being so lethargic

Wednesday: 5am couldn’t take the worry, comforted her til the vets opened, by midday she’d had major stomach surgery to remove the treat

Thursday: She’s home & recovering well - with all the meds on-board she’s doing better than me ❤️‍🩹

Friday: £2500 vet bill has to go on my credit card & I’ve barely left the flat so got dressed & got out (to pick up my vinted parcels of course)

Saturday: Needed to get outside, parkrun with the girl (it was cancelled but we ran anyway)
Err should swans be in the sea? 🦢

Sunday: The girl convinced me to do a short run, just so we could pick-up a take-away roast dinner from it’s epic & last me at least two days - no dinner pic as we scoffed it in minutes 😋

I can cry over a broken cup, but seem to take the tough challenges in my stride, if this is you I see you, it doesn’t make them easier it just means you’ve normalised dealing with the big stuff.
Know you’re strong but know you’re seen 🥰🧡

Good & Proper our story..

Good & Proper started out as Coco Browns over 14 years ago, recently we have gone through a period of change which included opening a second unit inside Bristol Temple Meads station , this was a true work of love!

It took 18 months to finally open our doors on December 17th 2018 and we haven’t looked back since. In January 2020 I decided it was time to merge the two businesses and create one brand under one roof and so began Good & Proper Weston. A cafe where you can find home cooked fresh food made from simple ingredients but with all the love you would expect from an indi cafe. Try our Whole Hog brekkie with everything bar the black pudding you won’t leave feeling hungry. We encourage plant based eating and offer a selection of Buddha bowls full of fresh bright rainbow ingredients nourishing your gut health.

We source our food from local suppliers where possible this is super important to me and often the best slice of cake you can buy is right on your doorstep, to compliment the food Extract coffee from Bristol are our go-to for our daily caffeine intake as is Canton Tea who do a stunning selection of herbal teas sitting alongside the hot warming breakfast cuppa.

We look forward to welcoming you through our doors and when the sun shines take a seat in our outdoor area and just watch the world go by with a cold glass of Wiper & True pale ale or thatchers cider whatever your choice we can’t wait to say hi!
