Happy Monday Peeps! So I'm enjoying Netflix at the moment (like millions of others during lockdown). I think I've told you before, I like it on in background or dual screen when I'm sat at the computer a long time... what with dissertations and applications and regular household paperwork I have got through a lot [...]

The Shortest Day
Happy shortest day/winter solstice! I love it because the dark evening make the cosy house full of Christmas lights even more appealing! It's also my half birthday (yay!) And an old friend's birthday.... we're all getting old, but I dunno how much wiser 😉 It's been a day of last minute things: present swapping, fresh [...]
Christmas watch
Yo peeps! 1 week to go!!!! Christmas Eve is possibly my favourite day... just home; cooking, prepping and watching movies (with a sickening amount of hot chocolate and snacks). There are a few things to look out for in the last minute shopping: Lots of small towns (including us in Bude) are offering free parking [...]
An Interesting Month
Happy All Saints Day Peeps! It's November 😱 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy4BGRAwCfg Always makes me laugh...although I can't compute not feeling Christmassy! Strange as it may seem it is actually November. November's a big month for us in lots of ways, not least our daughter's mock exams! Despite the stress she's under, she went into school telling her [...]
Planning November!
Howdy Peeps! Thought I'd share a few planner themes with you as I race through my autumn planning. I'm loving these themes and hope you do too. I've added some autumn-themed sticky notes to my existing dashboard, because you can never have enough post-its...am I right? Also, did I show you the cute reindeer? I [...]
Feeling Guilty…
Morning, Monday Peeps! Christmas is a mere 12 weeks away (on Wednesday) and, of course, I've been shopping. B&M and Morrison's are already bringing their A-game (which I very much appreciate). The thing is... I bought myself a Christmas present.I know calendars are a gift people often buy or make and, in the past, I've [...]
Last Day of Crazy!
Howdy Friday peeps! (How is it Friday again already?!) Today is my last day of late shifts in the shop (normal closing next week whoop whoop!) and today is Mr.Bs first day not at work.... Today is also the last weekday of this school year (the new one beginning September 1st) when Mr B and [...]
Planning This Week
Yo Peeps! I can't believe I'm done with my club tropicana theme already (😥😕) it seems like I only just showed you. However, this week is pretty special as I've done a birthday theme... Mr.B is a year older on Friday! 😉 I wasn't sure how to do a birthday theme without making it look [...]
Summer Holiday Budgeting
Morning Peeps! So it's the summer holidays (apparently... too wet here to tell!) and there are things to do and buy, places to go and people to see. So how do you do that on a budget? The simple answer is planning. I plan for one treat and one sensible thing each week. With a [...]
Tell It To Me Straight
Morning Peeps! I will be interested to see what responses I get to this. It really bugs me when people sugar-coat things. If a family member is seriously ill, there's a financial problem or even if a person wants to say something nasty about me, please just say it! As I'm sure my family will [...]
