I am going to be completely honest, this should really be called my ‘Reasons to Keep Going’ page. Since I started the Cottage Notebook, I have been lucky enough to appear on some blogs/podcasts and I even managed to pick up a shiny award for my blog. When I’m having a really hard day it’s nice to come in here and have a look at what you guys think. Thank you for reminding me that all the effort and hard work is worth it.
