Everyday emails to my pal about… everything!
Hey Friend, ‘Try your best’ is a phrase that’s often said. It’s said by friends, maybe your boss but mostly by parents to their children. I know I’ve definitely said it to mine over the years. For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been working as an invigilator for exams. The school isn’t too far … Continue reading Try, Try and Try again
Hello! How are you doing? What’s new? It’s been a week of preparation at this end. Preparing for a meeting (me); preparing for exams (Older Miss); preparing for Mummy going to work (Bubs… and me!). GCSE’s start this week and OM has been steadily revising for months now. She feels confident, she feels ready. It’s … Continue reading Prepare For Take-off
Hey Friend, Well. We officially have a new king. Yay. The build-up to the coronation this past week has been… How do I put this? Boring? Tiresome? Strange (People camping out several days before to get a glimpse of the carriage as it passes by, I’m referring to you with that last one). I’m sorry, … Continue reading Happy and Glorious
Well hello there, Friend! How’s it going? The sun is out so that’s always a bonus 😊 Unfortunately for me, I can’t quite enjoy it with one good eye… So, I went to bed on Sunday and all was fine except my left eyelid felt a bit sore to touch. No big deal. I went … Continue reading For Your Eyes Only
Hey there, How are you? I love spring. Daffodils, tulips, Magnolia blossom – what’s not to love? Well, one thing has to be the weather. I had to laugh when the weather lady talked of unseasonably high temperatures reaching the dizzying heights of 17 degrees Celsius… In the next breath she said ‘But don’t put … Continue reading So You Think That’s funny?
Hey there! How’s it going? It’s been a tough week! It’s been one of those weeks where I’ve been fighting the feeling of being a failure. Yep. And this after such positivity last week! I’m currently unemployed. I’ve applied for a lot of jobs. A lot. I think even the most confident person in the … Continue reading It’s a Tough Climb But the View Will be Worth it
Hey Friend, How’s it going? What have you been up to this week? The last few weeks I’ve been busy pitching, which is completely out of my comfort zone. I’ve just received a no back from one of my pitch recipients but I’m handling it pretty well. I mean, it’s the first no and someone … Continue reading Always Look on The Bright Side of Life
Hiya! I had parent’s evening for Bubs the other week. After listening to his teacher gush about him for the best part of ten minutes, she asked: ‘You’re an author, aren't you?’ Cue the biggest smile on my face and my heart melting at the thought of my son talking about me 🥰 I replied: … Continue reading Story Time
Hey! How are you? Hopefully you had a good week. Ours has been OK. The dreaded World Book Day reared it’s head again… and, you’re not gonna believe this but Bubs decided he wanted to go as… Dog Man. If you’re unfamiliar with this gem of a character, here you are: I bet you’re intrigued … Continue reading World Book Day 2023
Hi there! How are you today? It’s our last lazy day – half term is well and truly over. Although Bubs has been mourning the end of the holidays since Friday… We haven’t done much this week. Older Miss (OM) had ‘compulsory revision’ at school for three out of the five days so it wouldn’t … Continue reading Trolley Dash
