World Mental Health Day 2019 – How far I’ve come.

10/10/2019

I was unsure whether to post this blog a few weeks ago but it seems fitting that I do today as it’s World Mental Health Day. Last month I totally jinxed myself. I thought, smugly, it’s been a year since I had my last panic […]

7 types of self-care that don’t cost a penny (and aren’t taking a bubble bath).

27/06/2019

Self-care. We talk about it a lot. I talk about it a lot. But every time you open a magazine or online article it shows images of girls wrapped in towels at a swanky spa or, failing that, with a towel turban on their head […]

25 April 2009 – I got married. The day that most girls dream of from when they’re little. Wearing lace curtains or tablecloths over your head pretending it’s a train and you’re walking down the aisle to your Prince Charming to live out your happily […]

Review, Something a bit different

My Top 5 Podcasts to listen to and when you should listen to them.

13/02/2019

Last year I started to listen to podcasts. I had dabbled with the Scott Mills podcast if I’d missed Innuendo Bingo or something but I had never realised the breadth of podcasts out there that cover a multitude of subjects from real-life murder mysteries all […]

Self-care for Mums – a necessity, not a luxury.

06/02/2019

Over the past few years I have become incredibly passionate about self-care for mums. Mums getting the opportunity to have some time to look after their health and wellbeing. I realised that ‘self-care’ didn’t have to mean an expensive spa day or a weekend break […]

Getting through Dry January

15/01/2019

I’m half way through Dry January and last night Charlotte had a mega tantrum in the bath and drenched the place with water. (I currently have floor boards with no flooring so not the most waterproof setting right now.) If ever there was a time […]

Maternal Mental Health Awareness Week

Baby, I’m going crazy.

03/05/2018

This week it is Maternal Mental Health Awareness week. But what does that mean? Well, I think, as mums, we can all agree that we all feel a little crazy after the 100th time of asking your little cherubs to put their shoes on, or […]

The Perfect Juggler

The Perfect Juggler blog is written by Katie, a honest, open, slightly sarcastic single mum to an overly dramatic 8 year old daughter. She lives in Warwickshire and is trying to juggle all the balls of her life: Family, friends, dates with the boyfriend, starting a new business, and all the other things that could come crashing down at any moment.

I'm officially, a crazy plant lady. Have been feel I'm officially, a crazy plant lady. Have been feeling a bit meh this week so after some dancing exercise this morning to boost the endorphins I decided to spend some time with my green friends.

My orchid had grown a baby at the end of one of its off shoots so I gave her a new little home next to her mummy and keeping my fingers crossed she'll bed in so I can cut the apron strings.

Also spotted a new baby succulent pushing up from a leaf that dropped off one of my other plants that I planted a month or so ago.

And finally got round to rehoming another baby aloe that had sprung up in another pot and some other leaves that I'd propogated 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Feeling very wholesome and happy now and normality can resume. Now where do I hide them so Dale doesn't spot MORE plants? 😬

Decided to start running again today and this was Decided to start running again today and this was the thanks I got! 😍
After 2 weeks of procrastination I got up, left the 9 year old to get her own breakfast and the bf to supervise, put on my @couch_to_5k_laura app, turned on @rosemarinoramsey and @iamchrisramsey Out Of Office Reply on #ShaggedMarriedAnnoyed and went for a run/walk.

Going to do it all again on Wednesday and hopefully see another beautiful start to the day! ☀️

Wow the sun feels good! The clan and I actually u Wow the sun feels good!

The clan and I actually used our daily exercise today and walked up into Warwick to get our fruit and veg from the market.

Was lovely to spot @tropiclovelyness behind the @vegoutandgetfruity stall and picked up some beer from Fosse Way Brewery for the one not doing @dryjanuary. Then stopped into @dough_brew for their delicious chocolate milkshakes and a coffee for me!

Then on the way home we even caught a race @warwickraces, didn't pick the right horse to bet on but was fun to watch either way!

Hope you all managed to get a glimpse of vitamin D today and are keeping yourselves entertained somehow. ❤️

First day of homeschooling done. This time round i First day of homeschooling done. This time round is completely different as our teachers are actually teaching the class remotely. It still doesn't seem to mean I can entirely focus on any of my work as there has to be an issue or crisis of confidence at least once every half hour but...i can see it getting better.

After an early start because of a crappy nightmare, juggling a planning workshop and homeschooling a brisk, very cold walk helped us all.

Still doing Dry January but if anyone wants to put bets on how long this will last I'm happy to take them!

I was thinking of doing Dry January this year but I was thinking of doing Dry January this year but after hearing we've moved into tier 4 I'm not so sure! Trying another delicious bottle recommended to us @majesticleamington This one is a NeroD'avlo (not sure if I've spelt that right but it's lush!).

Who else has changed tiers today? And how do you feel about it?

Lottie's make up skills have definitely developed Lottie's make up skills have definitely developed since the first lock down! This actually looked pretty good and the winged eyeliner wasn't far off either.

MAIN NEWS: she didn't stab me in the eye with mascara either!

I've really struggled with my reading for the past I've really struggled with my reading for the past few months and although I was so looking forward to reading The Eve Illusion by @mrsgifletcher and @tomfletcher I struggled to get past the first couple of chapters. A client mentioned that she was struggling as well and it turned out we were both trying to read dystopian thrillers, and we decided maybe it was all a bit to close to home at the moment so I've abandoned that book until the new year and picked up this Christmas novel and I'm going to stay in bed for as long as possible reading whilst the other two play on the PlayStation downstairs.

Hope you all manage a lazy Sunday and some r&r today. After yesterday's announcements I think we need it more than ever. 😔 Sending all the love ❤️

Nothing like a bit of gluten free bribery from @fannysfancies and @coffeearchitects to coerce her into doing the Aldi big shop with me!
