Stuff on a Sunday – Fireworks and Tears

A very quick ‘Stuff on a Sunday’post from me today because I am exhausted and am also wanting to make the most out of a family bacon and egg sarnie breakfast! We very rarely get to eat breakfast all  together due to shifts and preschool etc so it’s nice to have a Sunday morning chill out together.

Everyday Us: Magic Lightbulbs

Athena thinks that Daddy is magic. Daddy actually isn’t magic at all, but he has been using his phone to turn on and off the light bulbs in our house (we have ‘hive’ running our lights and heating) without Athena knowing. She thinks it is the best thing ever that he can point at the light bulb with one finger…

Review: Vileda Windomatic

You know when you don’t know you need something, but then once you’ve used it you think ‘why didn’t I get one of these before now’, well that’s how I feel about the Windomatic from Vileda. Its a vacuum for windows essentially, but actually it does a whole load more than that. Designed to help get the water off your…

Me & Mine – October 2016

Stuff on a Sunday – Solo parenting & magic light bulbs

A pretty good week all in all, Sam was away for three days of it in Germany snowboarding, so I’ve been out and about for the last few days with the kids as days inside drive me absolutely crackers! On Friday we headed over to Chelle’s house for a playdate for the kiddos and a mum-date for us! 7 kids…

Workplace Health & Safety

Apart from being able to work in my PJs with my hair in a mum-bun and a makeup free face, the other wonderful thing about working from home is that I am in charge of health and safety! I can balance my tea precariously on the arm of the sofa if I wish with nobody to tell me off, and…

5 Blog Goals for 2017

I very rarely talk about blogging on my blog. I don’t really write tips posts or ‘how to’ posts, because there are so many other bloggers out there doing it that I really don’t see the point, plus you know, google exists. But I do want to get down on paper (or, the screen) what my blogging goals are for…
