Monday happy things {Week 127}

Posted on March 6, 2017 by jenny

I know I say it every week but last week was busy! Somehow we survived Pancake Day and World Book Day, as well as the normal school routine and after school clubs. Thankfully our weekend was pretty quiet so we all had a chance to recharge our batteries. Time for my weekly post about the…

Monday Happy List {Week 126}

Posted on February 27, 2017 by jenny

It’s been a strange old week. The children only had 4 days at school thanks to an Inset Day but they’ve both been quite tired and grumpy getting back into the school routine. Today my 6 year old asked when the Summer holidays were going to start. I didn’t want to break it to him…

Monday happy things – week 123

Posted on February 6, 2017 by jenny

I am so glad to see the back of January. We’ve had nothing but illness and last week both my children were off sick, on different days of course. They had completely different illnesses, my poor son has a lingering cough from the chicken pox he had a few weeks ago. He’s been coughing non-stop…

Monday Happy List – week 122

Posted on January 30, 2017 by jenny

Every Monday I sit down and take 10 minutes to think about the high points of the previous week. Sometimes I struggle to find 5 things, and sometimes there are too many. Last week was quite quiet so I was able to find time for lots of baking and crafting. Monday Happy List – week 122…

Hope you all had a great weekend. Ours was filled with parties and swimming lessons as usual. Every Monday I write a post about the five things which have made me happy in the previous week – imaginatively titled Monday happy things. My son was off sick most of last week with chicken pox. He…

Monday Happy List – 2017 life goals

Posted on January 16, 2017 by jenny

Last Monday I missed writing my weekly Monday Happy List post. I’ve written this post for over 2 years so it felt strange not writing it. However, I came down with a strange bug which kept me in bed all day and I couldn’t face opening my laptop. I’ve been meaning to write my goals…

Monday Happy List – week 119

Posted on January 2, 2017 by jenny

I love the period between Christmas and New Year. My husband had taken the whole time as annual leave so we were able to relax and went to my mum’s house for a few days. My weekly Happy List helps me be mindful of the small things which have happened in the previous week. If…
