Everyday emails to my pal about… everything!
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
Hello! How are you? You’re not gonna believe this but – we made it! Half term baby! Whoo-hoo! Okay, so I’m a little over-excited at the prospect of not having to drive. Don’t get me wrong, I much prefer the comfort of my own car than being on the bus. At least there are no … Continue reading Drive On
Hey Friend, How’s it going? I don’t know about you, but I am really looking forward to half term next week. A whole week of not hearing: ‘It’s too early to get up!’ ‘I don’t want to go to school!’ ‘I’m soooo tired!’ ‘My stomach hurts!’ ‘Why can’t I stay home? It’s just one day!’ … Continue reading A Little Less Drama if You Please
Hello! How are you doing? What’s new? It was Little Miss’s birthday last week and, you’re not gonna believe this but she turned twelve. Yes! Twelve years old! It’s actually crazy looking at my sassy, funny, beautiful girl and remembering how cautious she was when trying to walk. Older Miss was in a rush to … Continue reading Birthdays Are The Best
Hello! How has your week been? I can happily report that I have not once written the date ending in 2022 so far 😊 But that’s not what you should be congratulating me for (unless you want to, of course. In which case – thanks!). No. What I wanted to share with you is that … Continue reading Congratulations?
