Is it even May bank holiday weekend if you haven’t been to seek out the bluebells? Hope you’ve all had a lovely weekend. Anyone else still reeling from the disappointment of last night’s anti climax? #nooneevendied #lineofduty6 #bluebellwoods #101thingsthatmakemesmile
I haven’t shown my mug round these here parts fo I haven’t shown my mug round these here parts for a good while now (probably a mixture of Instagram fatigue, hideous grey roots and simply wondering who wants to see my face). Anyway, here it is for those of you who have followed me recently but we may not have been formally introduced. I thought I would share 10 facts about me so that we can get to know each other a bit (or you can get to know me anyway 😂). 1. I am ridiculously easily influenced - if it’s all over social media, then it won’t be long before I’m waxing lyrical about it. 2. I love plants but no matter how hard I try, the green fingered gene passed me by. 3. Having said that, I’m giving outdoor plants a go this year (Instagram strikes again 😂). Watch this space 🌱 4. I’m a marketing/comms manager by trade, something I ‘fell’ into. This year I decided to study for a marketing diploma so that I have some clout behind my enthusiasm. Hardest thing I’ve ever done 🤯 5. I still call myself a ‘mum to teens’ despite one of my girls being almost 21 and the other 20 this year! I still have a 16 year old so that counts right? 6. I am in a constant battle between loving routine and getting bored very easily. Routine usually wins out. 7. I became a puzzle addict in lockdown, always got one on the go. 8. My husband recently pointed out that the reason I’m no good with plants is that I thrive on ‘new’ and plants take dedication to keep the same. I begrudgingly reckon he’s onto something. Amazing I’ve stayed with him for 24 years really 😉 9. This year I went from very dark hair to being almost blonde. The reason? My hair is almost 100% grey under all the colour 😱 10. I would not describe myself as an animal lover but we recently lost our rescue dog and I miss her so much 😢. Currently in discussion about getting another one but realise it’s probably too early. Instagram is my favourite social media platform for connecting with people. I’ve ‘met’ some truly fabulous people who I would never have the chance of meeting IRL. If you’re a new follower, you’re very welcome. Why not leave a comment below and tell me something I may not know about you, or something which surprised you about me. Go!

I posted this picture on stories, then decided I l I posted this picture on stories, then decided I loved the light so much that it deserved a permanent square (ignore the charger leads everywhere 😂). This is our old playroom that I turned into a ‘snug’ about 7 years ago. It gets the best morning light in the house and during lockdown I developed a habit of spending a good 30 minutes in here every morning doing some journaling and yoga stretches. The walls are currently grey (aren’t everyone’s? 🥱) and I’m seriously thinking about painting them a dark forest green. Yay or nay? Will I regret it? #myhousethismonth #lovemyhome #snug #roomtransformation
Spring wouldn’t be spring without some blossom o Spring wouldn’t be spring without some blossom on my grid 🌸 We had a wonderful afternoon at @rhswisley yesterday, celebrating my dad’s birthday. Standard mum behaviour ensued as I oohed and aahed at every blossom tree, winding my daughter up a treat. My excuse? I haven’t seen my family for 4 months or been much further than Tesco, so I was a little over excited! I hope you’ve managed to see some actual real life people this weekend. I wonder when the novelty will wear off? #lockdownlifting #101thingsthatmakemesmile #blossomwatch #springhassprung
