To my amazing daughter,We both kind of expected your first year of senior school to get off to a shaky start didn't we? After all you didn't know anyone at your new school and being as shy as you were we thought you would struggle a little until you found your feet.I've never been so pleased to be wrong in my life!You met a great group of girls on your first day and you've become firm friends with them all but even better than that, you've continued to make friends and you now have a huge amount of friends as your phone will testify to with it's non stop beeping after … [Read more...]

My Week {12th July 2015}….
This last week has been the busiest week I can remember in a long time!Here's the highlights.... Tuesday Master Frugal's school had an open afternoon on Tuesday where parents were invited to go in and spend some time with the children at school. We sat together and looked through his workbooks and he proudly told me his levels which are amazing but I hate that children are told their levels in front of their classmates. They shouldn't feel like they're doing worse/better than others at such a young age in my opinion.I went straight from the open afternoon to Miss Frugal's end of … [Read more...]
Five Frugal things I’ve done this week to save money {10th July 2015}….
Five frugal things I've done this week: 1. We went to the car boot sale last weekend to try and find some tennis rackets for the kids to play Tennis with over the Summer. I usually buy some from the pound shop but as they're a bit older this year, I thought spending a bit more would be beneficial so we headed off to the boot sale. We managed to buy two great Wilson rackets for £1 each which was a great bargain - one of them is a Venus and Serena Williams edition which is £20+ online to buy. We also bought some badminton rackets from a couple of different stall holders and ended up paying … [Read more...]

Last year was a bit different for us though as we tried to have a bit of a lazy Summer which meant that, although we … [Read more...]
My Week {5th July 2015}….
This picture pretty much sums up this last week for me - lots of time in the garden, lots of work to get through and lots of time spent with the kids! It's been such a gorgeous week this week hasn't it? So nice in fact that I've spent most of my week (when I haven't been asleep or at work) sat outside in the garden.My garden isn't the biggest and it certainly isn't the prettiest right now but I have a nice little spot in the shade where my table and chairs are set up and I've really enjoyed sitting out there watching the kids play on the trampoline and putting down all of the ideas that … [Read more...]
