We've all heard the saying 'think before you speak' but sometimes, it's easier said than done!Have you ever opened your mouth and instantly regretted the words that have come out? I know I have and I can think of at least one example in the last month where I've said something and instantly wished I could take back. And if it's that hard for me as an adult, just think how hard it is for children to be careful of what they say!With this in mind, I saw a poster this week which I really loved and wanted to share it with you today because I think it's a great way to help children (and … [Read more...]
This week’s meal plan {2nd May}….
This time yesterday I was lazing in the sun with a (non alcoholic) cocktail in my hand waiting for a lovely Halloumi and ham salad to be delivered to my sunbed while I made the most of the last few hours in the sun before we left Cyprus to travel home.

If you add it up, the cost of a card each, a small but nice bunch of flowers and a box of chocolates would cost … [Read more...]
How to have an organised December….
Not only can December be an expensive month it can also be an extremely busy month and looking at my diary, this year it's going to be even busier than usual! Between work, two different school's Christmas activities, doctors and orthodontists appointments and Christmas nights out I don't think I'm going to have chance to sit down all month. ;-)The problem I have is keeping track of it all!I need something that we can all see what's happening at a glance so we know exactly what everyone is doing and when!Mr Frugal for example needs to know if he can swap a shift at work at the … [Read more...]
