My head is trying to deal with an inordinate amoun My head is trying to deal with an inordinate amount of ‘stuff’ at the moment. Yesterday my son’s car broke down 200 miles from home and whilst the kids were all safely home by midnight, we’ve no idea how to get the car back, or whether it is even fixable 😓 (straw and camels spring to mind). 

I can feel overwhelm looming, so I’ve decided to make some jubilee cupcakes and I’m looking forward to seeing Top Gun later. Is it good? I’m hoping it will take my mind off the mum taxi needing to be resurrected again! #keepingitreal

We did very little over the last 48 hours and it w We did very little over the last 48 hours and it was absolutely blissful. Thank you @bethnalandbec for providing the perfect place to unwind. 

I read the whole of @theunmumsymum’s debut novel, ‘Stepping Up’, in the first 12 hours. I’m not sure that watching me read was quite the ‘magic’ (see pic 3) that my husband had in mind, but I couldn’t put it down! Great job, Sarah 👏🏻
Took the plunge with the dark green (went for Dulu Took the plunge with the dark green (went for Dulux Everglade in the end because the F&B colour wasn’t in stock and once I’ve decided on something I’m doing it immediately!); I haven’t regretted it so far. 

My mum remembers these colours being very ‘in’ during the 70s. I remember them being back ‘in’ in the late 90s. Now here we are again. I just hope the pale grey trend doesn’t come back  any time soon, cos I don’t fancy attempting to cover this one up! 

What do you think to the dark colours? I know it will be so cosy in the winter, just hoping it’s not too heavy for the summer. 

P.S Woodburner incoming very soon, just waiting for our installer to get over covid 🤪
