On Christmas Eve I decided to turn my laptop off and have a wonderful few days off enjoying baby girl’s first Christmas. On boxing day I did a quick check of my emails and discovered that my blog had been hacked. They hadn’t got in through my username and password, but through a plugin I wasn’t using and had not…
Blogging can be tough. Unless you have a topic that is giving you an infinite amount of content to write about, you’re probably going to run out of ideas sooner or later and you might start running into a creative wall. I know this has happened to me! It can spell the death of an otherwise informative and interesting blog,…
This month marks 2 years since I started blogging. Happy 2nd blogiversary to me! I started off on blogger, writing about my competition wins, books I loved to read and gardening tips.

Well I don’t know where to start. 2016 has been one of the best years in my life. It’s been jammed packed with the birth of my beautiful baby girl, baby sick, sore boobs, 10 months of maternity leave, teething, lack of sleep, returning to work full-time and of course the revamp/rebrand of this wonderful blog. I have decided to…
I feel so lucky to be able to review the new Stick to Stigu planner. Earlier on in the year I was grateful to review the 2016 version. Now here is the bright shiny new 2017 version. I’m a HUGE fan of Stick to Stigu. I just had to get that in before I follow with my review! I have…
Today I’m sharing with you some digital marketing strategies that can help your business or in my case helped me to grow my blog.

Well didn’t September disappear very fast? One minute it was lovely and warm days, then somewhere a switch was flicked and Autumn arrived with a bang. Colder days and nights, heavy rain that flooded quite a few local areas. Now it’s time again for my monthly roundup and bucket list post. Here is last months post.
The Summer holidays are all but over now. I don’t know why but I love September because it never seems that long until Christmas!
