Mortuary Worker & Death Blogger
With Christmas now a long, distant memory it’s time I got back into the swing of my ‘factual’ midweek and ‘update’ weekend posts. I might be setting myself up for a fail but I’m also willing to at least try to get back into old habits. Christmas was eventful with Christmas Day being my only... Continue Reading →
Prior to starting my mortuary work I had no idea how much cleaning there would be. Nearly every task has some element of cleaning involved. We clean people, areas, tools, floors, if we use it then we clean it. I had a thought in the car the other week that even though it may seem... Continue Reading →
I am all too aware that Christmas can be a time when the pressure to be having a great time can be overwhelming. I know a large number of people who don’t find this time of year exciting or fun, for a number of reasons that can include a bereavement in the past around this... Continue Reading →
One of the hardest things I find in my day to day life is to not feel hugely overwhelmed by simply everything. Not to feel like there are never enough hours in the day. There are always places I want to go to, podcasts I want to listen to, Netflix series to binge and people... Continue Reading →
Or it’s probably not because Christianity has been thinking it’s overdue for ages now and the world still seems to keep carrying on regardless! The London Month of the Dead kicked off for me in true style with a lovely time on Sunday. Started with Richard Barnett’s talk titled The End Of All Things exploring... Continue Reading →
8 days since my last post! I think that’s the longest I’ve ever gone without unintentionally posting. A combination of life, work and everything in between has been occurring and I can’t say I even noticed that I hadn’t posted. I once again find myself in Hartlepool at the Marina and I really am getting... Continue Reading →
What a difference a week makes! I have gone from feeling overly anxious about the upcoming month to now feeling entirely positive. Although I am aware that as much as it can change in that direction it can always change back again, I definitely prefer this new excitement. It does feel odd, however, that it... Continue Reading →
Warning- rambling, totes emosh post! I’ve found it really hard to write an update for last week. I’m still struggling on Monday evening how to get it done. It’s not as though I’ve got nothing to say, I had a pretty good and standard week for my job. I got a lot of revision done,... Continue Reading →
It’s been a little while since I not only made a two good post week but also did one technical and one generic update. Or at least I think it is, I’ve lost all track of pretty much everything! My favourite thing about this week may well have been having marmalade on toast nearly every... Continue Reading →
This week I have been fairly solidly revising alongside putting together a presentation for a very exciting project (should it come to fruition which I hope it does!). I wondered if some people would like me to share the contents on here, and I figured why not as long as I give a little warning... Continue Reading →
