As I start this post, I need you to start playing a teeny tiny violin for me whilst I shed a tear into my laptop. Don't worry, this isn't another post about my mental health. This is a huge 'first world' problem. I haven't had a holiday this year and have none planned. Yep. Not one!… Continue reading Family Holiday Bucket List
Our Weekend at Camp Bestival
The long awaited, highly anticipated weekend had arrived, yay! But typically for me we didn't get off to the best start. Firstly, while I was all packed and ready to go on the Friday morning Dan informed me he was now going to be stuck at work until well after 6pm. GREAT. As well as… Continue reading Our Weekend at Camp Bestival
Camp Bestival 2017 – Here we come!
This month we are going to Camp Bestival! The last time I went to a proper festival was years ago when I was a wild, careless teenager. I have some fantastic memories, watching my my favourite bands in magnificent crowds and sitting around the campfire with friends chatting, singing and drinking into the early hours.… Continue reading Camp Bestival 2017 – Here we come!
What we got up to during the School Holidays
The Easter Holidays are coming to an end and I feel a bit sad. If I was writing about the last Half Term we had in February I would be absolutely ECSTATIC and celebrating the fact school was starting again on Monday. I only work part-time but I had the whole week off with Lucas… Continue reading What we got up to during the School Holidays
Review: ‘Caribbean Cove’ at Weymouth Sea Life Adventure Park
I have always absolutely loved visiting Weymouth Sea Life Adventure Park. Living in Dorset, it's only a forty minute drive away for us and I have so many happy memories there as a child. I think I even went there on a first date once (lol!) and now I have my own family we still… Continue reading Review: ‘Caribbean Cove’ at Weymouth Sea Life Adventure Park
Taking A Break
I have been looking at this bloody screen for a while now. Of course I have also been procrastinating by clicking back to facebook, pottering around and finding music playlists on YouTube. Does anyone else do this? I can't even clean my kitchen or have a bath without a 'task appropriate' playlist. This evening I… Continue reading Taking A Break

How I learnt the hard way NOT to delay a smear test
It was just after I turned 25 when I received the letter asking me to book my first smear test. At that time I was expecting Ava and understood you couldn't have one while pregnant so I tossed the letter away and didn't think much more of it. I got a second letter shortly after… Continue reading How I learnt the hard way NOT to delay a smear test
The Little One Tag
Lucas, Ava and myself were tagged by the lovely Hannah to answer some questions for the #littleonetag. I had so much fun asking them both the questions and have written their exact replies below, please bear in mind Ava is only 2 so her answers are pretty random. What’s the best thing about being 5 and 2… Continue reading The Little One Tag
‘Just’ a Health Care Assistant
I am aware that I did not go to University to become a trained Nurse but one thing that really grinds my gears is when an ignorant Issac or a stuck up Sally says to me - 'oh, you're just a Health Care Assistant'. Well, yes I am a Health Care Assistant. I currently work in a… Continue reading ‘Just’ a Health Care Assistant
