Living the good life on a budget.
Hello June! A new month, which I’m hoping will be much better than the last. As the days tick away, our due date gets ever closer, so June will be about getting organised; sorting the nursery out and having a general tidy up/sort out of our house. Again, it is another month where both my and…
Hello May! As the days continue to get longer and warmer, time seems to go even faster and the year begins to slip away. We don’t have many plans for May; we have a couple of meetings with friends organised, but that’s about it. Again, it is another month where both my and my husband…
Hello April! Hopefully a month which brings warmer weather, and the days are longer. We don’t really have any plans in April, as the majority of the time me and my husband are at work. However, we’ll be spending our time relaxing and seeing friends and family, which is time well spent. We also want to get…
Hello March! A new month, where the evenings are getting longer, and the days are hopefully a bit brighter. We don’t really have any plans in March, as the majority of the time me and my husband are at work. However, we’ll be spending our time relaxing and enjoying the time we have together (how corny…
Hello February! A new month, full of hope and adventure. February is a shorter month, which always seems to fly by, but there’s still plenty to do. We’ve got a couple of nights away booked in the middle of the month which will be nice. I’m also hoping to do some decorating as I want to…
Hello January! A new month, the start of a new year, the unlimited promise of new adventures. I always start the new year feeing positive and refreshed, excited to see what the next 12 months will bring. Sure, there’ll be moments that will test us, moments that will be difficult, but along the way there will…
Hello December! I absolutely love December; it’s my birthday and my husband’s birthday during the month, plus of course the holidays and spending time with family. I cannot think of a better time of year, to be honest. Work wise, December is a busy month as we get everything finished for the end of year, but…
Hello November! November and December are my favourite months of the year, as the nights draw in and I can get away with wearing big chunky jumpers and slipper socks. Our bathroom renovation got postponed in October, but is due to start November 17th, so I’m looking forward to having that completed this month. It’ll…
Hello October! How I’m looking forward to the darker evenings, with a comfy throw on the sofa and some candles burning brightly. We’ve got some big expenses coming up this month as we begin our bathroom renovation, but all planned so hopefully nothing too unexpected crops up during the month. Every month I like…
I am a big fan of Autumn (Fall) and Winter. I love the cooler seasons when the nights are darker, all of the seasonal fruit and veg comes in season and sitting with candles lit and blankets on the sofa. So I’m excited about September! We’ve got a busy month ahead but I’m sure we’ll…
