Well! Long time no see! I cannot say I have been consistent with this poor blog, but I think considering how 2020 has been so far, I have good reason! We, along like many others, can safely say that the Covid-19 pandemic has had a massive impact on our lives. Thankfully, all our families have… Continue reading That was the year that wasn’t…

And then, she arrived!
Emily Josephine Mendoza, born at 5:58am on 11th August 2019, one week overdue. She measured 60cm and weighed 8lbs 6.5 oz, full head of hair and the most flawless eyelashes you ever saw! I was in active labour for 26 hours, though my contractions started on the Wednesday before, but I had not dilated enough… Continue reading And then, she arrived!
(Not) Working 9 to 5
So I am now 32 weeks pregnant, I feel like I am the size of a hot air balloon and have the mobility of a drunk snail. I am constantly puffy and groan like an old woman when I try to get out of the chair - not really selling this pregnancy nonsense to anyone… Continue reading (Not) Working 9 to 5
Hey baby!
It has been a very long time since I have done a proper post, but there has been a few very good reasons for this! I had had the full intention of making my blog to be about working on my new home, charity shopping and being out and about in Glasgow. We picked up… Continue reading Hey baby!
Lazy mare
I am still here, I swear! Had a few months of terrible health and constant work that I have barely been near my laptop unless its been for work purposes. I still don't feel in my 'writing place' as I desperately want a writing desk, which in turn requires us to buy a property! Its… Continue reading Lazy mare

Creature Comforts
Today's post comes from my good wee pal, Paperblank Prompts: Cosy blankets and copious amounts of tea! Admittedly, I am not a fan of winter. I am happy in my cosy house but when I have to go outside, that's just criminal. But I get the slow cooker on, shove loads of tasty food in… Continue reading Creature Comforts
Snug as a bug in a rug
Not going to lie, this post comes straight from my bed. The bed I have been dreaming about crawling back into since 9am this morning (it's now 11:48pm on Sunday night) and one of the places I love being the most. I never used to be one for staying in bed, I'm happier plodding about… Continue reading Snug as a bug in a rug
Sunday Sunday…
After chatting to the husband about old routines we used to have when we were younger, I have decided to go back to my old Sunday routine - cleaning! When I was younger I was super disciplined - I would get up early and have the house sparking by lunch time. This suited me so… Continue reading Sunday Sunday…
Spring cleaning
This week we waved off our flatmate Kat, who has found herself a perfect flat in Glasgow for herself. Whilst I really miss her, I am happy knowing she has a beautiful little space to call her own that I know she is going to make into a comfy little Kat cave! It really does… Continue reading Spring cleaning
