Weekend Box - Fun For The Kids


As a parent I know how hard it can be to keep the kids amused when the weather is that bad you don't want to take them out.  So they get fed up and tell you they are bored.  I try all the usual ways to keep them amused, board games, their favourite DVD or story time.  Now those little tricks don't work.  You can imagine how delighted I was when the lovely people at Weekend Box asked me to try their little box of fun.

Seasonal Affective Disorder



Winter arrives and with it brings rain, gale force winds and snow.  It also means it gets darker earlier and we don't get as much sunlight as we do during spring and summer.  I have always felt a bit different when winter arrives but nothing that worries me as I am simply adjusting to the darker days and the temperatures.  For some, however, winter brings more than just horrible weather it also brings Seasonal Affective Disorder into their daily routine.

Storage is a massive issue in our flat.  We don't have much cupboard space as we are in a 2 bedroom flat so we need to find other way to store the children's toys without there being a lot of mess and clutter.  Some storage boxes and units can be expensive, massive and bulky.  I have said before how I would love storage than can be folded away when it's not needed rather than taking up much needed space. Now I have found it - MyBuddy Box.

Tiny Tickers



When I was pregnant and attended my scans, like any other parent, I worried that they might find a problem.  When I had pre-eclampsia when pregnant with my daughter I was scared she would be born early and with my son I was rushed into theatre for an emergency c section which was needed due to him being in distress.  Thankfully both my children were ok, but for 3000 babies, each year, this is sadly not the case.  These children are born with CHD

Songwriter Connect





I absolutely love music and think that life would be so so dull without it.  Over the years I have often thought how it would be great if I could write my own music and hear the finished song being played on the radio but sadly I am not that talented but I do have a few friends who are amazing at writing music but find it hard, and expensive, to get the support they need to make their dreams happen.  Well I have found the perfect platform that can help them and many of you continue with your song writing - Songwriter Connect.

Dance the weight away





As you know from a previous post I love to dance.  I have even been known to shake my tooshie when out and about and that includes dancing in the aisles in Asda! People who know me will tell you that I was always a perfectionist when it came to learning a new routine so it was easy for me to forget about the fun element and the biggest thing of all, the exercise side of dance.

Please Note

I would like to say that I do not normally post about bad customer service but in the case I mentioned in So Angry I had to share as I did not want anyone else being so badly let down.
