Today, I've got 8 reasons why buying second-hand clothes is the future for you. :-) I'm not going to lie, I think reason one is enough all on its own but I added the rest in case you still needed a bit of persuasion. I shared a post a couple of weeks ago where I asked the question 'Are charity shops too expensive?' and it got me started on all the reasons why buying second-hand clothes is the way to go. My reasons started to take over the whole post so I dialled it back and copied it over to this post as this topic really does deserve a post of its own. I share a post every … [Read more...]

Why I still blog after all these years….
I started this blog back in 2010 and, if I'm honest, I never imagined I'd still be writing it all these years later. At the time, I was a mum of two young children who had lost both my Mam and my brother within the space of about twelve months.

Five little things that have saved us money this week {31st July 2026}….
Every week I share five small things we’ve done to save a bit of money, make life easier or help us spend more intentionally. None of them are usually huge on their own, but that’s kind of the point.

It was looking a bit worse for wear when we bought it so we'd planned to give it a bit of … [Read more...]
A week of doing one job a day….
Our house needs a lot of work. 😁 It's absolutely liveable and it's clean and tidy, but it's definitely dated and needs an overhaul from top to bottom. We have so many plans for what we want to do here that I genuinely don't think there's a room in the house that won't eventually get some attention. When we moved in at the end of February, we went a bit mad with the renovations. Getting the kids' bedrooms sorted was the priority, and my office was high on the list too because I was due to go back to work not long after my operation. We also couldn't wait to get the dining room … [Read more...]
