On holiday
I was going to at least do my July reading post today. But, you know what, holidays are for doing nothing. I'll be posting on Instagram regularly if you want to see what we're up to. Otherwise, I'll be back 19th August. Instagram.com/andsmellysocks Catch you on the flipside folks.
Almost there
Are we nearly there yet? Almost holidays Almost the end of daily routines Weekly clubs already over Taxi service to sports is done with Peace and quiet looming, stretching to the horizon Or Kids off school, bored and nagging Interruptions, requests for snacks and screen time Organising activities and friends to play Money leaking to… Continue reading Almost there
The Aesthete Blogger award
The very lovely Kayleigh at Confidently Kayleigh nominated me for this back in October last year and I've been very slow responding. Sorry Kayleigh. You can see her post here. I love Kayleigh's blog and her instagram, she posts a wonderful mixture of the serious and the silly stuff. In particular, she features the realities… Continue reading The Aesthete Blogger award
No post today
We're on holiday. It's beautiful and hot and we're having a lovely time, so there's no post today. Probably not on Friday either. Also because I need to write a guest post for TBC. Normal service will be resumed next week. Have fun everyone. Xxx

Taking an Easter Break
We're off for a little UK holiday for the next week, so I'm going to take a break from the blog to enjoy some fabulous adventures with the family. Wishing everyone a lovely chocolate holiday full of eggs and fluffy bunnies and free of vomiting, over-chocolate-filled children.
Be Unapologetically You
The very lovely Michelle at Boomer Eco Crusader tagged me for this lovely tag. This tag is all about sharing your genuine and authentic self. Like Michelle who tagged me, I’m really bad at hiding my feelings or being political or being anything other than just "me". The tag was originally created by Izzy Matias… Continue reading Be Unapologetically You
It’s not about you
Right, so here's the thing that's annoying me lately. Self-centredness. Is that even a word? I think so. I mean people who forget that there's anything outside their little world or that other people have different experiences, needs, abilities, finances and so on. Like what? Like those who don't want to vaccinate because the vaccines… Continue reading It’s not about you
