Happy moments from early May: birthday celebrations, beautiful sunrises and late night performances. I’m working to catch up on, well, pretty much everything in life at the moment. It’s been a whirlwind month in all sorts of ways but I’m ready to get my head back in the game now I think. Looking back on…
On my 33rd birthday three years ago, I posted a list of 40 things I want to do, achieve and experience before I turn 40 years old in 2023. I’d originally started the list when I turned thirty but I hadn’t launched my blog at that point so it existed solely in the relative privacy…
For the last few months I’ve been perpetually behind on sharing these little happy moments but I am still capturing them daily, behind the scenes of ordinary, everyday life. The vast majority of these photos were taken on my phone which at first I was not comfortable with at all, before I realised that at…
I take hundreds of photos every month, and most of them don’t get shared with anyone, let alone online. And yet the moments in time that those photos capture are just as important a part of our story as the other images that I do choose to share. I originally created this blog as a…
A holiday edition of Project Happy! During the Easter holidays we spent a glorious ten days in our happy place by the sea in Bude in North Cornwall and it was exactly what we all needed after months of stress.

April has been a month of two halves. The Easter holidays couldn’t have arrived quickly enough after an intense fortnight of complete and utter chaos in the lead up to them.

The start of April and the lead up to the Easter holidays was ridiculously busy with both school and work and my brain was so full that I had no headspace to do anything other than get through each day. I switched off as much as I could during our annual trip to Cornwall and…
It has been an absolutely mad few weeks. A flying visit to Spain for my Grannie’s funeral; a nasty tummy bug that flattened both Mimi and the husband for several days; ongoing issues with the kitchen repair/refurbishment following the fire seven weeks ago; the logistics of managing multiple after school club/sports/rehearsal commitments; plus a crazy…
Two weeks ago, on 19th March 2019, my Grannie left this earth. She was just six weeks short of her 99th birthday. She was an incredible character in so many different ways. She out-lived two of her four children and leaves behind her a legacy of eight grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. Family was everything to…
