So, this is Christmas 2020

24th December 2020

I’m sat in my living room three days into the Christmas holidays and I don’t think I could feel less festive if I tried. I know i’m not the only one, and in the grand scheme of things most people are far worse off than I am, as we are currently tier 2 rather than… Read More

9th March 20199th March 2019

There are lots of things in life I feel passionate about, love to talk about or read about for ages… but similarly there are some things I just can’t bring myself to care about at all. I know we’re all different (thank god – imagine how dull life would be if we were all clones… Read More

6 things I wish my kids didnt do

Welcome to Saturday 6, a new feature where every Saturday (or most of them, at least!) I’ll be sharing a list of six things about anything at all! Things I love, books I’ve read, observations, anything at all in a list of six basically. I think it’s a great way to write more personal posts,… Read More

My Top Seven of 2018

4th January 201910th February 2020
Ightham Mote National Trust

I’m still very much in a ‘I know this year has started but I am not ready to accept it and still very much reflecting on last year’ phase because I’ve not quite decided on my goals for the year yet am also still firmly in the ‘sloth’ frame of mind when it comes to… Read More

Six things I’d change about Christmas

22nd December 20188th January 2019
6 things I'd change about Christmas

I have grown to like Christmas, having kids has changed things for me in a lot of ways but their excitement on the run up to Christmas is something that gives me all the feels! I was never really keen on Christmas, possibly because I am an only child so never really had anyone to… Read More

🍰 Sam treated me to a big box cakes for my birt 🍰 Sam treated me to a big box cakes for my birthday, dropped off by a courier 🥳 If you can't get out for an afternoon tea then this is the next best thing!
It's been a very quiet birthday but after the year we've had it wouldn't have been anything else would it? I just keep thinking back to birthdays past, NYC last year, Germany, South Africa, the Alps, Canary Islands and Czech Republic... hopefully I'll be able to escape for my birthday again in the future! ✈⛵🚄 I miss travelling.

One from our walk on Friday, this church is in a v One from our walk on Friday, this church is in a very quiet little hamlet called South Stoke on the river Arun. 
We would've done another walk today (Sam had a day off today too) but our boiler is kaput and we didn't want to come home to a cold house so we stayed in and shivered on the sofa instead!
Also before you come at me for getting in the car to drive to exercise: we live in a flat with no garden on a busy road- we could walk to the beach but I can guarantee we would have seen LOTS of people on pavements on the way and then hundreds (literally -  the prom is so busy!) at the beach. Kids play parks are too busy too. We walked past TWO people and one cyclist in 3 miles on our walk)

Much as I love 'jumper season' I'm over this frost Much as I love 'jumper season' I'm over this frost. Our boiler sounds like it's struggling as it whines more than Arlo does when he hasn't eaten in an hour. Much like the rest of you I imagine, I'm feeling a bit numb and fed up right now. I also can't shake this cold/cough (been tested, not covid) and it's been lingering for 3+ weeks now. I fall asleep at the drop of a hat too, like a little old lady and find it hard to get up in the mornings. I just want spring time, normality energy and clear nasal passages IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK?

I've been outside more today than I have for the f I've been outside more today than I have for the for past week. We've basically been hibernating since Christmas eve apart from the odd trip to the shop up the road. Today I walked round Devils Dyke with a friend early in the morning and then went to the beach in the afternoon for the kids to let off some steam. The sun setting was gorgeous and it made me realise I'd missed the sea as I'd not been in ages! Anyway, one more day at home tomorrow (inset day for us!) And hopefully back to school Tuesday but we'll see. For us its the right decision as my children thrive on routine, and I thrive on being able to work without distraction or having to try and teach them! 

Happy New Year!
