And so the sun sets on another year of the boys in school. Year 1 and 3 are dusted off and put on the shelf. The last year has been surreal to say the least. But for now I sit glad of 4 weeks off work in front of me. Time to hang out with the goons. Time to have time off, enjoy space, mooch around with my team and generally practice a simplified life. So I’m going dark on these social media spaces for now. Time to reduce my inputs, lean into my core and enjoy the present moment in front of my face. Have amazing summers one and all. See you on the flip side. #goingdark #timeoff #summerholidays #backsoon #sunset #schoolsoutThere aren’t many better ways to start the day. #seaswimming #endorpins #happy #joy #blueskies #brightonlife #hoveactuallyFeeling the weight of this beautiful ending to John O’Donohue’s birthday blessing as I sit at the end of a lovely day.A treasure trove of delights. A delicious heap of wonder. A cavern to be explored. A feast to be tasted and a stack of worlds to enter into. Love my birthday stash. #birthday #books #wonder #delight #loot #happysigh #wheredoIstart?Insanely pretty morning with the parents at the lovey Leonardslee Gardens. In true 2021 style husbandface was out of the picture with feeling grim post second vaccine but we had fun, melted in the heat and came home for birthday cake. I might be 43 tmw but apparently never too old for some good old hedgehog joy cake from my Mum. #birthday #leonardsleegardens #tirednow #beauty #cakePretty epic 48 hours away from the smallest members of our team. Time to relax, eat good food, walk in pretty place, read books and enough time to miss them. Heading back today with a heart full of gratitude for my parents looking after the boys, for their v peaceful house and for my co-captain of this ship we are on through all this crazy life adventure. Now. Back to the fray. #rest #timeoff #grateful #favouriteandbest #beauty #reading #joyArchives

Life in lockdown… Weeks 5,6,7 and 8…
I couldn’t quite believe that it’s been 4 weeks since I last blogged. I’m sure it was last week, or actually maybe a few years ago. That’s the thing about time in lockdown isn’t it? So much confusion as to … Continue reading

Thoughts about work…
This weekend, as well as giving thanks for sonface, involved the genius of heading to London for Anna and Sarah Day. These days are the best kind of day, a day of peace, of sitting on sofas with big mugs … Continue reading
The first day…
Today is the first day of the rest of my life. Which if you think about it is true for all of us, so no news there then. What I mean is today is the first day of a new … Continue reading
A confession, and some stamping.
Last Wednesday at the end of our small group time together I noticed a change of perspective in my thinking, it’s always exciting when that happens so I’m writing it down in case it blows away again and I sink … Continue reading
Advent 9
This week is my last week at the place I’ve been working for 3 years. When I started working for Macmillan Cancer Support I wanted a job that I didn’t have to take home at night, a job that would … Continue reading

Day 12
Thankful for… A day of enjoyable work in the office, the lovely evening with a colleague of Husbandface chatting and helping her learn how to cook (well I proffered ‘helpful’ suggestions from the sidelines whilst he taught). Also chatting to … Continue reading
Things that make me cry. Pt 568
Today it was Kevin’s talk on the Virgin Birth. On why this matters so much. God coming to earth as a baby. God growing up with us. The seemingly impossible possible. God come to be with us. That means He … Continue reading
