“Take ten minutes to sit still and just breathe” Oh…. I’m a working mum with 2 jobs and 2 children! Ten minutes?!?!? How on earth will I find that time? I remembered yesterday that I have the Headspace app provided free as I work in education (see here for info) so decided then that I […]
The One About Action for Happiness (6th Jan)
“Say something positive to everyone you meet today” As today has been “back to work” day, it’s been fairly easy to engage with people in a positive way. (Short and sweet blog post today!)
The One About Action for Happiness (3rd Jan)
I love the monthly wellbeing calendars from Action for Happiness. January’s calendar is focussed on Happy New Year. I’ve decided to blog my progress through January’s actions. “Spread happiness by doing kind things for others” Strangely, this was a difficult one today. My opportunities were limited to my immediate family as we didn’t really see […]
The one that marks the re-re-start
Can a word be prefixed twice like that? Who knows! My hosting company have changed blog providers, hence the re-re-. I will add the older posts on here eventually, but I’m having to work around the changes with some copying & pasting. I plan to blog more often, but how successful I will be remains […]
The one from the Big Smoke
Today, I am playing at being a sophisticated, grown up lady and going to London to met M for lunch at the OXO Tower. I’m not sure either of us fall into the category of sophisticated ladies that lunch, but we’re going to pretend to be them anyway. The rest of the Bank Holiday weekend […]
The one with the Big Pink Heart
I’m not really sure if anyone ever reads this apart from me …. butjust in case, I want to link to this blog post from Big Pink Heart. http://bigpinkheart.blogspot.com/2010/08/play-fair.html Big Pink Heart is, its own words, an organisation taking action towards positive social behaviour and respect in the community. In short, a group of people […]
The one after Google Docs
Apart from the last post I put on here today, all my recent posts have been made using Google Docs and its ability to publish to a blog. In their wisdom (?) Google Docs have removed this functionality in their latest update 🙁 Not good… I was just getting used to using it – especially […]
The one that marks the re-start
Have decided today to take up this blogging lark more seriously! I’m going to try and add something more regularly than I was doing – which won’t be hard. Today saw the arrival of the rhubarb and asparagus crowns for the veg garden, but the beds aren’t quite ready for them yet! Typical. Will hopefully […]
The one after the first post
Hmmm.. don’t know what I pressed there, but what I’d started to write here has all vanished (and, no, it wasn’t the delete button I promise!!) As I was saying…. the first post went well; it all appeared as I had hoped it would. And I did finally get sorted for going to camp. I’m […]
The one with the first post
I’ve never done this before, so I’m not entirely sure exactly what it is that I’m doing! I know what I *should* be doing – packing to go camping, but my bag is too small – or the pile of clothes is too big…. I’m never quite sure which it is. I would go and […]
