Howdy Peeps! Sorry I was absent yesterday and earlier today... we've had computer issues! 😦 I think we're all sorted now...hopefully!! It's been a bonkers week so I thought I'd update you... It started with the carnival, which was fab, then fireworks Monday in aid of the Lifeboats. So it's been my last week of [...]
Howdy Peeps! A couple of weeks ago we went to Creationfest (see Festival Worship!) and I said that I loved to shop there. I bought this beautiful plaque for my kitchen wall.... I have always loved the Armour of God passage in Ephesians, it includes the shield of faith so this instantly grabbed my attention. I [...]
Morning Saturday Peeps! It's been kinda nuts here this week, nothing bad just busy. I've forgotten things and we've had a couple of less healthy meals because of the chaos. I realised the problem was that I'd stopped writing things down. The best present I ever had was a family organiser calendar with columns for [...]
Happy Saturday Peeps! If you want to succeed at something, it requires effort. Planning so you can do it effectively is a huge part of that. For example, I had a day this week when we ended up eating later than planned and had burgers (diet blip)...if I had planned ahead and prepared a healthier [...]
Hi-de-hi Peeps! I heard on the radio the other day that the average family spends £5000 in the summer holidays!....WHAT?! This included a holiday and several day trips as well as toys, ice creams, etc. I've never spent five grand on anything in a year ever! If you've got the budget to do so, then [...]
Morning New Year's Peeps! (or afternoon if you slept in 😉 ) How on Earth is it 2018? Somehow that just sounds soooooo much closer to 2020 than 17 did! My daughter finishes school in 2020, so that might have something to do with my freaking out! 😉 Joking aside, I'm actually looking forward to 2018. [...]
Morning Peeps! Kinda wet here today. I was talking to Mr.B last night about people's attitudes towards stuff (ours included) and the things we are looking to change. He often quotes "there's no such thing as can't, knock off the t" and he's right. My weight has been a life-long battle, but I'm not surrendering. [...]
Morning Peeps! I am no good at waiting. I like to plan (in fact I just had a conversation with my mum about Christmas...which is only 114 days away!) and am often reminded to enjoy today and not miss it. Today, for example, the sun is shining, my daughter has friends staying and I get [...]
In a thoughtful mood today as I'm a year older! I thought I'd share some of the random thoughts about this last year. Mostly it's been great, but breaks my heart all the suffering going on when we live such a care-free life. My heart goes out to London and Manchester. ❤ We have loved [...]
