For those of you who follow me on Instagram you will know that this isn’t my first rodeo when it comes to counselling. In fact I’ve probably lost count how many times I’ve spoken to someone about my mental health. Some would say that means it hasn’t worked for me. That my need to go… Continue reading Counselling and Me…..

Weight loss – why now…..
For most lockdown has not been the time to consider their weight. Gyms are closed which is meaning many have stopped doing most of what they used to in order to keep fit. If your plan had been to do something at home then trying to get a hold of free weights like dumbbells is… Continue reading Weight loss – why now…..
This Lockdown has taught me…
With another at least 2 weeks to go I feel now is as good a time as any to talk about what I’ve learnt during lockdown. 1/ I need to workout for my own sanity. It doesn’t need to be a brutal 1/2 marathon or a 2 hours weigh session but I do need to… Continue reading This Lockdown has taught me…
2 weeks in…..
I’ve been off work for exactly 2 weeks now. It’s been 2 weeks since I’ve seen friends, family or even been further than about 5 miles to get essentials. My thoughts about being in relative lockdown go back and forth. One minute I’m loving the chance to spend quality time with Charlotte and the next… Continue reading 2 weeks in…..
Bad Behaviour or Just Frustration….
Our house at the moment feels a bit like we have hit the terrible twos early. Tantrums have started along with some resilience to listening. Charlotte is only 17 months so part of me is wondering whether it is just a development leap or whether now is the time to set out some hard ground… Continue reading Bad Behaviour or Just Frustration….
My January Favourites….
So this is a bit different for me but there have been a few things I have actually been living in January and though why not share. Sharing is caring after all. First up is Sanctuary Spa Wet Skin Moisturise. I've never been one to religiously put on moisturiser after a bath or a shower… Continue reading My January Favourites….
What 2019 has taught me….
Well with a year (and a decade) finished and a new one starting it's hard not to reflect. It's easy to sit and go through all the negatives, should haves and could haves. It's easy to be disappointing in what you didn't achieve or didn't do. Instead let's take a look at what we did… Continue reading What 2019 has taught me….
Sorry Santa…..
For those of you who are eagle eyed I've been a bit AWOL this week. 100% thanks to the little munchkin sharing her sickness bug with me, her dad and then unfortunately her grandparents. Frankly, this week's been a write off. I had planned to spruce up the house (hahaha see what I I'd there)… Continue reading Sorry Santa…..
We moved house…..
So it's been a month since the big move. It already feels like this is home. I remember my mum saying that when they walked into the house they bought when they got married they just both knew. Weirdly I think I felt the same when we bought this house. Gary made a comment about… Continue reading We moved house…..
Time for some self care…..
Yesterday for the first time in more than 6 months I went and got my hair cut. I've been putting it off unable to justify a) the time and b) the cost. The reality it's not that expensive and I forgot just how nice it is to have someone else wash your hair. Self care… Continue reading Time for some self care…..
