Home School and Lockdown: My Daily Routine

We’re into week four (or is it five now?) of home school/ lockdown here in the UK, so life is beginning to feel somewhat ‘normal’ again- at least to the degree that I’m used to this by now. Of course, lockdown can never feel normal. Not going to school can never feel normal. Not seeingContinue reading “Home School and Lockdown: My Daily Routine”

The Importance of Goals

I remember going back to school in January after a Christmas break when I was a lot younger- maybe 7 or 8. We’d come back, excited to see our friends again and with renewed energy, full of stories from over the Christmas break- who got what and who went where. The teachers always took thisContinue reading “The Importance of Goals”

50 Things to Do This Christmas

This Christmas has definitely been at least a little different to most others, but some things haven’t changed (like gingerbread making day with the fam!)

Lots of plans of mine have been rained off- or I’ve gone ahead with them and come home soaked to the bone! So anyway,Continue reading “50 Things To Do This Fall”

Morning Routine

I am the exact definition of a morning person. Even when I’m off school, on holiday or on a weekend, you will scarcely find me asleep past 6.30 am. Sure, I like to stay in bed for another half hour or sometimes even more, but once I’m awake, I’m up! I’ve never been able toContinue reading “Morning Routine”

Tips for Productivity

I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that productivity was one of the things I majorly struggled with during lockdown this past spring. But that said, this lockdown has definitely not been the only time in my life where I have lacked motivation and a drive to get stuff done. Whether its work, choresContinue reading “Tips for Productivity”
