Homeschooling week 12 – maybe? I haven’t wrote a homeschooling post in a few weeks. I am struggling with time. As usual my blogging takes a hit when this happens (which is so frustrating). Homeschooling is so time consuming and the longer it continues the harder it gets. After week 9 it was half term…
I love reading. During my twenties I was all about reading chick lits. Whilst predictable maybe I loved them. In recent years I tend to choose thrillers. Gripping psychological books that keep me guessing. However during this rather strange stressful time I feel myself needing to escape in something a little lighter. An easy chick…
How to entertain a toddler whilst stuck indoors? The million dollar question. Entertaining a toddler when you’re stuck indoors has never come easy to me. We are very much an outdoors family whatever the weather. I knew once lockdown and the school closures were announced, my 3 year old was going to struggle the most….
Advertisement At the moment If I am not wearing my favourite Spring dresses I am wearing my comfortable loungewear. This time 12 months ago I didn’t own a single pair, now I am a little obsessed with my comfortable loungewear. I have worked with Femme Luxe many times and now it is my go to…
Another week, homeschooling week 9. It has been noted that the longer the lockdown goes on for the less productive our days seem to be getting. This week was also mental health awareness week. Seeing lots of people talking about mental health awareness on social media definitely made me think about how we are al…
This year for the 75th anniversary, we are excited to be celebrating VE Day with Go Outdoors. VE Day this year was always going to be a little different. What with the country being in lockdown. It was all about celebrating this momentum occasion at home. Introducing Go Outdoors Thankfully Go Outdoors were on hand…
When you lead a busy life (like most people do) self care is rare, there is always someone or something that comes first. Children, husbands, elderly parents, work, house work. The lists goes on. So I am sure that now during lockdown the thought of having any time for self care it pretty much impossible….
Homeschooling week 8, the week we lost our way a little. Very little school work was done in week 8. Following the Prime Ministers speech on Sunday 10th I felt really low waking up on the Monday morning. I am missing my family so much. Generally I am quite positive and can put a smile…
Our homeschooling week 7 was mostly about celebrating VE Day. It is funny because we have never celebrated it before and I am not sure if it is because we are on lockdown and need something to celebrate or because it is the 75 year anniversary. Either way we have had lots of fun. We spent…
It is the time of year when the pretty Spring dresses make an appearance. However this isn’t just any usual year. There are no christening or wedding to attend, no birthday celebrations to attend, no fancy lunches with friends and certainly no date night on the horizon. When lockdown was announced I have to admit…
