Hello there!

Allow me to introduce myself.

My name is Ritu Bhathal, a 40 (soon to be 40-something!) year old woman, living in the heart of Kent, UK.

By day, I am a wife, mother, daughter, sister, daughter-in-law, and a teacher.

By night, I am exhausted!

No, seriously, I am a blogger, and writer.

After I have sorted all the general household kerfuffle out, kids fed and watered, washed and packed into bed, hubby and myself also fed, laundry done, lunches made for the next day, and any outstanding schoolwork done, then I manage to sit down with my iPad/Surface or on my computer, to either write a blog post, or peruse my followed blogs, or generally write.

Yes, that means I seem to burn the candle at both ends, as I rarely sleep before midnight, and in term time, I am up at 6 then have to be alert…

Hey guys! I know this isn’t the best drawing, but I drew this for Ben over at Meerkat Musings! In addition to being kind, Ben created the great blog Coalition of the Brave! Please check out Ben’s wonderful blogs!

Drawing by B.G. @ Getting Through Anxiety Timon from The Lion King

From the shadow-frosted timbers
to a soul-caressing ray.

From unrelenting sheaths of silt
weighed beneath an earth’s decay.

From ebbing bud to rising bloom, 
hearts exhumed to wakened eyes.

As winter’s curtain takes its bow,
spread her wings…begin to fly.

For now she is free.

You guys. I literally just pushed the publish button and ran away.

Why?

Because I finally did it.

After 173 posts, 533 days, and about a bajillionfunny cat gifs later, I have FINALLY worked up the courage to share with you who I am.

And courage is definitely the correct verbiage here, because let’s be real — I’ve shared some ratherrecklessly personal things here on BBB.

Anywho…if you wantto subscribe to my YouTube channel, that’d be freakin’ awesome…if not, you won’t hurt my feelings 🙂

Alright…enough chit chat! Let’s get into it!

Lastly, any future video suggestions are more than welcome! 🙂

Thanks for watching!
