About Me

My name is Jules and I am a wife, mum and nanna. I have recently taken early retirement from Special Education which was a job that i really loved. I am loving life and fully intend to make the most of it making some fantastic memories along the way. Family and friends are very important to me and I enjoy spending time with them. I love socialising and having a laugh.

Apologies

Just a very quick post tonight. I wanted to apologise for the break in blogging. Sometimes life gets in the way when you've got a family, extended family and a circle of very close friends. 
My mum always says that things come in threes ( she is very superstitious). Well in the past few months its been a roller coaster for us. We have had family members with relationship breakdowns and all the fall out that comes with it. Friends with serious health problems that have tugged at our heart strings and made us take a long hard look at our own lives. This is always the case when you realise how fragile life is and makes you have a real good look at how you're spending your own life. 
We have bought a new caravan and had all that to sort out. Its been non stop! We also have a 30th birthday, a 21st birthday, hen parties, a huge wedding and an 80th birthday to organise.
 I literally feel like I've been in a whirlwind and not had a minute to spend on myself. That's the down side of being the person everyone asks for help. 
Well, now that things are getting sorted and into some sort of routine again, I felt that it was time for me to get back to doing the things I enjoy, including this blog. 
Thanks for taking the time to read. I will be blogging about finances, cookery and ways to garden and make home improvements on a budget.

Until next time,
Jules

    1. Evening Ali. Yes I think you're comment is spot on. I've made the decision to take my foot off the pedal a bit now and get some time back for myself. It's a fine balance when you have a family and elderly parents.
      Glad to be back xxx
