What is going on with our world?! I feel like I’m in a movie. So, today was day one with the kids at home. I was weirdly excited about this last week, but the weekend happened and I was already done! Monday morning was upon us… We did Joe Wick’s workout live on Youtube. Wow!…

Reflecting and Refocusing after Loss
I lost one of my longest and best friends to cancer last week. It was a huge shock as she didn’t tell anyone other than close family… I’m heartbroken at the loss. She meant so much to me and it was just a couple of weeks ago she messaged me with a picture of her…
The Road to TestBash Brighton
Around two months ago, almost exactly to the day, I found myself head in hands wondering what to do with my life. As someone who worked their entire life until having my son, the past few years have been incredible, but have left me wondering where the ‘real’ me went. Whilst you know, as a…
Anxiety and Depression WITHOUT Medication!
Life can be difficult at times. Since I found out I have a kidney disorder five, I’ve suffered terribly with my moods. Anxiety and depression is a reality for so many, but why do so many of us feel ashamed and hide it away? At the same time, why do so many people without anxiety and depression…
Happy New Year!
A very Happy New Year to everyone. This New Year is the beginning of new things for me. You may have seen me tweet about having the opportunity to go full time on my blogs, which excited me so much! I already have a number of things lined up for this blog and my other,…

Snoopy & Charlie Brown: The Peanuts Movie
It’s half term and what better to do that to put your feet up with a bowl of popcorn and watch a movie with the squidgy terrors in your life?! That’s what I did with my Boo today! Home made popcorn and all! We downloaded Snoopy & Charlie Brown: The Peanuts Movie (20th Century Fox)….
The negative side of perfectionism
As you may have read in my anxiety post, I see my writing as a way of de-stressing and releasing my thoughts. It’s certainly a lot easier to write about nice things, but not so easy to share the more emotional things that happen in a week. This week was a little more than just anxiety for me. I have high standards for myself and although I know I should make them more realistic, I feel that I should always be functioning on a high level.
Quick GnG Update!
Sorry for the recent pause to Girls n Gadgets. Unfortunately I’ve been unwell and in and out of hospital. I’m finally on the mend and so I just wanted to give you a little update on Girls n Gadgets and what’s to come! Girls n Gadgets has been going for 4 and a half years…
Release your inner creativeness with Cricut!
Since becoming a Mum, I’ve really become interested in arts and crafts. I took up Crochet and I do Hand Stamped Jewellery but I really wish I’d tapped into this creative side earlier. It’s so much fun and even more so when you’re able to create something unique for others. The Cricut allows you to not…
