HAVE YOU CREATED YOUR NON-NEGOTIABLE LIST YET?

A WHILE ago now, I wrote a post which really seemed to ‘hit the spot’ for so many of you. It was a post about the only list that I love. A list that has helped to transform my life and one that I believe can help to do the same for you too. I call it my ‘non negotiable’ list.

MY EXPERIENCE OF THE DREADED ‘WRITER’S FEAR’

I FEAR many things in my life. Some of them you’ll probably share with me. But what if I told you I was afraid of writing. What on earth would you make of that?

DREAMING OF MY DREAM BATHROOM

OUR bathroom currently has an eighties vibe. It’s old fashioned, it’s pink (yes, really) and thankfully it’s at least functional.

THE NEW ‘RULE’ WHICH IS CHANGING MY LIFE (CHUNK BY CHUNK)

I ALWAYS feel like there is never enough time in the day. You know, to do what I want and need to do. And I bet right now, you are reading this and thinking: “me too, sista! me too!”

MY HOME IMPROVEMENT TIPS (& YOUR CHANCE TO WIN £3,000!)

  I’VE never been one to make life easy. Which is why when I was heavily pregnant with Elsie, I – together with my husband – decided it would be a really good idea to buy a house that needed tons of work doing on it. A project home. Something we could both get our teeth into.
