It’s been so long since I’ve written anything on here but then you probably don’t need me to tell you that. Truth be told, I’ve been suffering a bit from…

Lovely day out with my sister in Richmond Park. Go Lovely day out with my sister in Richmond Park. Got thoroughly lost and ended up on a 12k ‘stroll’. Sadly we were both at the back of the queue when God was handing out map reading skills 😂 #nosenseofdirection #richmondpark #isabellaplantation
Last week was hard for so many reasons. Some days Last week was hard for so many reasons. Some days I felt like hiding from the world, but by the end of the week, two amazing things had happened: 1. The cornflowers that I planted from seed and almost killed on various occasions, began showering my garden with violet loveliness. 2. I got the results back from the first assignment of my marketing diploma (the one I’ve been banging on about for the last 5 months) and I managed to bag myself a distinction! Various morals to this story which include but are not limited to: don’t give up; you’re never too old; imposter syndrome can do one! #notsohumblebrag #101thingsthatmakemesmile #impostersyndrome #cornflowers #mygardenthismonth #weekendgardenparty

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!
