Things I’m Looking Forward to Doing in Disneyland Paris
A week today Little Miss and I will be on the way home after spending a few days in Disneyland Paris after the stress of this week I am so ready for it (plus Little Miss has serious Peter Pan withdrawls, I need something to tide her over until next month). A lot of bloggers are currently in Disneyland Paris, or are going over the weekend and seeing their photos has really got me excited, plus my best friend went over Christmas and recently blogged about that too. As I’m not feeling very well today I thought I’d write about what I’m most looking forward to trying to cram in…

What We Bought in Florida, September 2015
A week ago today we left our favourite place in the world once again and as of yet I haven’t decided whether or not I’ll be doing a day by day diary. So instead I’m sharing what I picked up while out there. Last time I didn’t manage to do this as I’d put everything else away before taking photos. In the end I just shared my favourite bits and nothing of what LM got. This time however I photographed everything as soon as it came out of my cased, and now I have a post for you all. Starting with what I picked up for myself; You want to…

Important Things I Still Need for Florida*
One week from today I’ll be freaking out because I’ll be able to say “I’m going back to Florida next month!” It still feels completely crazy and it hasn’t fully sunk yet since I only came back a few months ago, but there we have it. In case you missed it, I was lucky enough to be on the receiving end of someone “paying it forward” it’s literally like having a fairy godmother grant a wish. Over the past few months I’ve worked my butt off and between myself and my friends out there I’ve managed to secure our park tickets and I’m well on my way to sorting the…

Funding a Happy Life as a Single Mum*
I have now been a single mother for three years and I’ve lived alone with my daughter for almost two. For a while now I’ve been classed as self employed as I couldn’t face going back to shift work with the uncertainty who was going to be there for my little girl. I have retrained as an accountant, but while living in a small town there is limited jobs. I saw self employment as the best way to juggle both my finances and my family. Going back three years ago, I had no idea how I was going to survive on my own. I had lived away from home since…

Walt Disney World Countdown… 0 Days to Go
It’s finally here! Our holiday to Walt Disney World starts today! I was awoken to a very excited little girl jumping at her room gate shouting “Mummy are we going to Disney today?” and for the first time ever I got to shout back “YES!” She has been high as a kite the past two days which has been both wonderful and insanely annoying as i’ve been so busy and so stressed out. Thankfully now she’s sat in the sitting room watching Ratatouille (having already watched Lilo & Stitch and has Cinderella to watch afterwards) so I’m now cracking on with the last minute jobs before my mum comes to…

Walt Disney World Countdown… 10 Days to Go
Well the last 10 days went by super fast! We are now in the home stretch with only 10 days until we fly! Yesterday was actually 10 days until the start of our holiday but I didn’t manage to get the post up last night. To put it into perspective, I’m now closer to my holiday than I am to my birthday and that seems like 5 minutes ago. I’m so afraid next week is going to drag but thankfully i’m going to see Cinderella with Little Miss on Tuesday then to see Wicked with my sister on Thursday, then it’s my dad’s birthday on the Friday. I’m…
