๐Ÿ’ป Guess whoโ€™s got a ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ด๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฒ? Oh yes, that is me. Over 3 years of hard work has led me to this and I feel so proud of myself. Starting a degree during Covid and homeschooling children and working is just insane when I think back.โฃ

โฃ
As itโ€™s an apprenticeship, through my employer, I still have some work to do to finish off. But my certificate is en routeโ€ฆ the hard work is done. I wouldnโ€™t have been able to do this if it wasnโ€™t for my employer giving me time to study and Hubby for giving me the space to work into the evenings and weekends. Itโ€™s a lot of time. And I will be forever grateful. โฃ

I love learning and itโ€™s something Iโ€™ve always wanted to do, as I left uni at 20 without my ๐—Ÿ๐—ฎ๐˜„ degree. It was my biggest regret leaving so close to the end. But Iโ€™ve done it now and thatโ€™s the main thing. โฃ

Rambo was terrified of them, he would shake and not eat for days around this time of year. I often made him a den somewhere, so he could hide.

A fun family quick question game: Hedbanz

A fun family quick question game: Hedbanz

I love this game and so do the kiddies. We get everyone to play it with us when they come round too. It's a quick fire round game where you have to guess what is on your head band. Clues in the name of the game (Hedbanz)... It's really quick paced, fun and gets the children to think creatively about how they might ask questions.  VIEW the POST

Getting organised with work and hobbies using Trello

I thought it was about time I started sharing some of my tips on how I keep organised with my work and my hobbies. Both at work and at home, I use Trello – it can used in a browser or on an app. I have it on my iPhone, iPad and work computer using the browser. It is so easy to use and updates in real time, so you can flip between devices quickly. 

Spring time stationery with pastels and golds

Spring time stationery with pastels and golds

I love Spring time, it is my favourite season of them all and I probably said that about Autumn too. I love the colours, the sunnier weather, the breathe of fresh air and the feeling of cleanliness. Everything just seems clean, the Spring clean must just get under my skin and inspires me. Not only do I love Spring, but I love stationery. What better way to combine some of my favourite things. Katie Leamon cards have put a huge smile on my face today as they are just the most beautiful cards and notecards.  VIEW the POST

Easter with Clintons

Clinton Cards have some wonderful Easter goodies in stock at the moment and we were sent some of the products to review, just in time for the Easter weekend. We were sent a cute little Easter basket, with a lovely yellow bag, 2 different types of Easter cards, some Lindt bunnies, a cute little Easter cake and some of those tiny little chicks that make you say “ahh”. Clintons are encouraging crafts with the kids this Easter and getting them to embrace their creative side, unfortunately with Noah being quite young he doesn’t quite understand the stick and glue, colouring and making just yet – but it was great to see that there are fab products out there as next year we will definitely be at the forefront of the Clintons queue and everyone will be getting Noah made products for Easter – just a warning to the family!
