August has been an insanely busy month and it seems to have passed by in a complete blur.  I’ve deliberately worked as little as possible, but I have still had regular trips to London plus client-and-supervision sessions in Stafford to honour.  Add these into the ongoing balancing act of planning plenty of fun & interesting things to do with the […]

This #projecthappy post covers the final part of the summer holidays, and we headed off to Cornwall for the only holiday we’re having this year. We’ve all been in desperate need of a break, a change of scenery, time to relax and the chance to spend some quality time together as a family. We’d been looking […]

I freely admit that I am a planner.  A detail person.  The organiser of the household.  Always have been, always will be. Sometimes it’s important for me to remember that plans change.  And that that’s ok! In June I announced that I would be working out of Harley Street on Thursday mornings as well as […]

A little note… As of today (Friday 28th August) I will be out of the office until Monday 7th September for a very much needed break with my family. My phone will be switched off …and while I will have access to email, I will only be checking it sporadically. I will respond to all […]

Another ten days gone and we are edging ever closer to the end of the summer holidays, which I feel more than a little bit sad about. Although it’s always a challenge, I really do cherish the extra time with the girls (and my husband when he’s not at work). The thing about #projecthappy is […]

I know I say it with every single one of my #projecthappy posts, but I’m going to say it again anyway – the time has flown by! Despite the weather being, erm…. mixed (come on summer, where are you?!), we’ve managed to make the most of the good days and have spent the rainy days […]

Today’s thought for the day is courtesy of my eldest daughter Ella, an avid reader. A couple of evenings ago I was tucking her into bed after her nightly half-hour reading ritual.  As I smoothed her hair and kissed her forehead she gazed up at me and announced: “If you’ve got broken biscuits, make cheesecake!” I must […]

The second and third weeks of the summer holidays have continued to speed by, and I’m loving spending quality time with my girls. Some days we are busy and other days we take things more slowly, and both are equally good. Here are my most recent ten days of happy moments:         […]

Six months on, I’m still carrying the cardboard box. Still putting things in it. Still keeping it closed so I can’t look in it. It’s getting heavy. I want to put it down but I don’t know how to, not properly.  I don’t know where to put it or what to do with the things […]

Sundays are sacred to us. Not because we’re religious – we’re not.  Sundays are sacred to us because it is the one day a week that all five of us are all together – it’s our family day.  Because of this, each week we try and do something different – get out of the house, go somewhere […]
