Mum Stuff, Lifestyle & Me!
Happy New Year!! No, I am not confused and thinking it is January 1st. The end of the summer holidays signifies a brand fresh new start for me, even more so than the beginning of the year. We’ve had a long hot (very rainy at times) summer and it has been absolutely fantastic to share …
Mum pressure, that is most certainly a thing. I feel I need to get this off my chest as it is consuming me slightly. So, social media gets a bad wrap and I don’t think it is any social media platform that this spirals from, it is Instagram and to be honest most insecurities stem …
I had every intention of publishing a ‘What I Ate Today’ post yesterday, but unfortunately after my breakfast I was poorly. Mr K took the kiddies to school which was lovely, I pottered about the house/washed my hair etc. I started to feel a bit icky so I had an apple and a glass of …
“Do more of what makes you happy” – isn’t that the saying? It is World Mental Health Day today and this quote got me thinking. For me how I feel inside my head is not just about anxiety or feeling down/depressed, I think mental health covers a vast selection of emotions, feelings, thoughts and physical …

As the title suggests, this post is about being a bit ratty. I had no intention of putting out a post today but when the moment strikes I need to get my thoughts down. It has been a bit of an odd week my emotions have been really up and down. It started off good …
I’ll be honest, this week has seen tears, meltdowns, laughter, new adventures, anxiety and so much more – we are only at Wednesday and I’m done! I’m having one of those weeks where nothing goes to plan, things go wrong and emotions are sky high. I could bottle it all up and feel 10xs worse …
They say motherhood changes you and I absolutely agree. Since becoming a mum I have become a better version of me and I’m starting to enter a new stage of parenthood. During the early years I had no idea what the heck I was doing, I would read books, listen to friends advice and copy …
I have always been one of those annoying people who likes to be organised, that is probably why I chose a career as a Legal Secretary/Admin Assistant (pre children). Being productive however can be tricky especially since my children started school. During the early days when I had a toddler and newborn we spent our …
From an early age my mum would buy my sister and myself new pyjamas to wear on Christmas Eve. We were also allowed to open one present from under the tree, we never had a Christmas Eve Basket as that wasn’t a “thing” back in the 80s. However, over the years since becoming a parent …
