Snow has been falling mixed with rain tonight...wi

Snow has been falling mixed with rain tonight...will we wake up and be able to build another snowman 🤔 It would be worth it just to see this face light up it’s been a tough week for my middle one. She has cried. I have cried. Even the clouds are crying. Last lockdown she dealt with it really well but with such bad weather and not getting out as much as we would like I do think it’s weighing on her. All the joking aside - the new way to do math frustrates the hell out of me too. The old way was so easy why change it? I am now having to YouTube to learn things just to help her and I was really good at math in school. 😱🤬 I know from all the memes I am not alone here. But I had to give myself a proper talking to today cause I think my mood was rubbing off on her and as soon as I readjusted my own attitude she started to too. She definitely is the type that feeds off the energy of a room and I am so glad I realized it sooner rather than later. Maybe tomorrow will be easier, better, and less crying and shouting by us all. Maybe even the clouds will give us something to smile about too. ❄️ ☃️ How is everyone else doing half way to the weekend?#lifeinlockdown #lockdownlife🔐 #lockdown2021 #lifecloseup #lockdownagain #lockdownschool #homeschoolinglife

AD We have long loved @tescofood Homeware range.

AD We have long loved @tescofood Homeware range. With a new year upon us and the Xmas decor put away, it’s time to spruce up a few spaces in the house that look bare. It’s great we can grab trendy pieces at affordable prices with our essential weekly shop at @tescofood. We scooped up these gorgeous homeware items for MM’s dressing table as it just had a lamp on it. It gave the whole room the mood boost it needed and really brighten it up. I love the gold theme frame and matching jewellery box and quality of the photo frames too! Do you ever feel like a space is in need of a mood booster? You can add a pop of colour or a vibrant pattern to push away those January blues? Either way, your friends will be asking you where you got your new trendy pieces and you can say with the milk and bread!!!! Head to my stories for the swipe up or check them out in store when doing your essential shop #EveryLittleHelps #TescoHome

How has your weekend been going? Nothing new to re

How has your weekend been going? Nothing new to report here...went for a walk - again. Watched a movie - again. Snacked far too much - again. Does anyone else feel like it’s groundhogs day? I am betting my last penny we are stuck till Easter holidays. I need to find some new entertainment for the kids as they are getting cabin fever like the rest of us. Anyone have some great activities they think little ones would love??? Outdoors - indoors we need all the advice? I have ran out of my list two lockdowns ago 😜🤦‍♀️ #lifecloseup

Almost the weekend...anyone else needing the weeke

Almost the weekend...anyone else needing the weekend to get here already this week? We want to lie in because on nursery days it’s still early 7am wake up, and we want to be silly and it’s snowing sleet right now maybe we can build another snowman! We are missing Henry! Come on .... one more day we got this!💪🏻

Oh roll back to when the snow was falling so fluff

Oh roll back to when the snow was falling so fluffy and white and we got to get the sled out! This little one was over the moon. Instead today’s been a very busy, very long day. Whilst online lessons have finally started it means I am running up and down the stairs and in between three children kept in three different rooms as to not disturb the others lessons. Silver lining...I have my daily workouts sorted for me! We are taking longer to find our grove this time than last but I am confident we will get here as I guarantee we won’t be back after half term in Feb. My guess after Easter and if it’s not I will ecstatic and if is than I am already prepared. Helps me sort my mind out a bit that way. How do you look at lockdown? One day at a time, worse case scenario so you aren’t blindsided, or positively optimistic?

Ok I know it’s late for any Xmas tree snaps but

Ok I know it’s late for any Xmas tree snaps but it’s more to do with my new dining room. I loved the Xmas decor but now that it’s put away it feels absolutely empty in here. Should I put a mirror on the white wall? Should I put large candle holders or big flowers in the middle as a centrepiece? This room feels like it’s missing something and I can’t pinpoint what is off now that there is no tree or decor to fill the space. What would you add to it????#lifecloseup #myhomedecor #diningroomdecor #diningroomdesign #diningroomideas #diningroomtable #diningroominspo #diningrooms #diningroomfurniture #diningroomgoals #diningroomchairs #diningchairs #diningtabledecor #diningroomstyle #diningroomsofinstagram #diningtables

A new photo...a new year...another lockdown. If I

A new photo...a new year...another lockdown. If I can’t get dressed up for anything I like to use lockdown to wear random things in my closet that I never wear because why not. These lace sleeves has been hanging in there forever. I have been trying to learn how to braid my own hair but it wasn’t instagrammable just yet 😂 practicing on MM helps. Lol Any tips I need them. I have noticed on days I get dressed and make an effort rather than live in my loungewear I get more work done. Just me? I have painted MM room about six coats I kid you not so I can’t wait till next week when all her new furniture arrives. I feel a room tour coming on! Want to see? So here is me, more wrinkles these lockdown have a lot to answer for...an extra chin if I am honest but I know I am not alone in the lockdown extra 15lbs. What do you find time to do in lockdown that you didn’t before? #lockdown2021 #lockdown3 #lockdownlife #lockdownsessions #lockdownagain #lockdownvibes

We are in this together. Day Two of Homeschool V.2

We are in this together. Day Two of Homeschool V.2 we have survived. Just. 😜 We will find our routine in homeschool again like we did before. I got my head wrapped around it again. Just takes me a few moaning days of “I don’t want to” from me not the kids 😂 and we find our mojo. Just to keep myself even busier cause a baby, my friends baby, two homeschool age kids, and a full time job isn’t enough I am renovating my daughters bedroom. Painted three coats on all walls today and feeling proud I had a ton of paint left over from renovation of kitchen to use up and it hasn’t been painted in seven years. It needs it. I needed the exercise too. So hand in hand we are going to get through this again. Everyone has such different situations be kind to all. We took a lovely sunny but -4cold walk at munch time today to grab some fresh air. How did your first or second day or homeschooling go?#snaphappybritmums #lifecloseup #homeschooluk #homeschoolinglife #homeschoollife #homeschoolingideas #homeschoolmom #homeschoolmum #homeschoolfun #homeschoolbreak #lockdown2021 #lockdown3 #lockdownuk #uklockdown
