5 Absolutely Free Beautiful Christmas Colouring Pages….
When I saw a colouring book for grown ups in my local supermarket I must admit that I wasn't convinced that colouring in was going to relax me but I decided to give it a go anyway and downloaded some free Christmas colouring pages from t'internet,I got out a selection of colouring pencils and sat down at the table ready to be relaxed and soothed as I coloured in the weird leafy pattern and flowers from the picture I'd printed out.Did it relax me?No, because I like things to look pretty so I was too busy thinking about what colour matched what colour to actually relax.Something … [Read more...]
10 clever ways to save money as a pet owner….
I can't remember what out house was like before we got our dog but I can tell you that our beautiful Bichon Frise Buddy has completed our family perfectly and we can't imagine not having him now.He's quite a high maintenance little pooch if I'm honest but we knew that before we got him because we researched the best breed for our family extensively. The thing that sold me on him was the fact that he wouldn't shed his hair everywhere (it had nothing to do with that cute face, honest!) and the fact that, as a breed, they're known to be a very friendly and playful dog.Before we … [Read more...]
Living with Vertigo and Menieres Disease….
Mr Frugal suffers with Vertigo and Menieres disease which in turn has quite a knock on effect to the rest of the family. I'm going to talk about both things today but I'm deliberately not going to link to any medical pages or give you an explanation of the ins and outs of both conditions as I'm not an expert and I just want you to know the effect that they can have on a family living with vertigo especially.The reason I'm writing this post is because he's currently laid upstairs in bed instead of doing what he'd planned to do this afternoon. I just called to cancel his plans and the guy I … [Read more...]
Review: Vax Air Cordless Lift Vacuum Cleaner….
Hoovering has always been one of my most hated jobs around the house!I hate setting it up and pulling the silly wire out, I hate the actual hoovering and then finally I hate the putting it away part.And because of all this, I wasn't overly excited when the lovely guys at Vax asked me if I wanted to review one of their new range of hoovers. Our last (much hated) hoover seemed to be on it's last legs though so I gratefully accepted their offer and waited for my new hoover to arrive with very little enthusiasm.The day it arrived, I left it in the box for my husband to build and … [Read more...]
Don’t forget to make time for YOU these Summer Holidays….
We're five days in to the Summer Holidays here and I'm exhausted!I asked the kids to write a quick list of things they wanted to do over the Summer Holidays and I've tried to cram a lot of them in this week as I'm off work with them all week. Not that it matters if we don't get them all done as I'm off again in three weeks for a fortnight and I'm home by 3 o'clock on most days when I'm working but still, I wanted them to have as much fun as possible with me while I'm off work this week.What that does mean is that we've had lots of fun together but I haven't had much time for me and if … [Read more...]
