Thirty Before Thirty
Today I turn twenty nine. I don’t feel twenty nine (most of the time anyway) and I certainly don’t look it (aside from the few crows feet) but the fact of the matter remains, next year at this time, I’ll be thirty. When I turned twenty one, the next big milestone seemed so far away but here we are, just a year away now. Some days I look at my life and feel like i’ve accomplished nothing. Single mother, rented house in the town I grew up in, no real career to speak of, no love life, no money. It feels depressing. I live miles from any of my friends.…

What We Did for Christmas 2016
I really enjoyed doing my What We Did for Halloween 2016 that I decided to do one as a round up of all the Christmassy things we’ve been up to this December.

Of course I’ll no doubt still do a post all about Little Miss’ Christmas eve and then one about Christmas day itself but we have had a busy December so it seems a shame not to share all the little things…

However with the current climate that doesn’t fly as I’ve seen snow as late as May up here and right now with the fact we had hail stones last week and it’s absolute freezing when the sun is down, I often feel like Winter has started as early as October. Making right now, mid November, feel like it’s in full swing. So today I thought I’d share 5 things I love about Winter. Because lets face it, on the whole it’s a pretty grim month. I’m going…

Little Miss’ Last Day of Pre-School
Well today was a big day, one I’ve been dreading but one Little Miss has been so excited about. After three & a half years Little Miss has said goodbye to her nursery and pre-school as she gets ready to make the huge leap to primary school! I cannot believe I had a daughter whom is old enough to start school in September. I remember the first time I held her and she was tiny, starting school seemed so far into the future yet it’s now only 7 weeks away. I’m not ready, but I know she is and she said goodbye to the staff and some of her friends…
