Learning To Be Patient
In a life filled with overdrafts, credit cards and the Bank of Mum and Dad, it’s easy to become complacent when it comes to our finances. Gone are the days for many, of saving up for something and earning the opportunity to buy that piece of jewellery, new bike or go to study at University. […]

A New Lease Of Life
Having the opportunity to be creative is often somewhat underestimated. Combining that with the opportunity to save money is an even more rewarding endeavour. When we first moved into our current home, we purchased a patio furniture set made from FSC wood which we hoped would serve us well for many years to come. 6 […]

A Little Bit Of Solitude Can Make You Happy
My husband (still not used to that!), Chris, asked if he could write a guest post about solitude. He’s always been one of the people in my life who I believe really value time to themselves; something which I probably don’t give him enough of to be completely honest! His desire to write a post […]

Lifting Your Weight
Many people’s January resolutions to lose weight and adopt healthier diets are likely waning now February is underway. I always think that resolving to completely change your habits is destined to fail unless there are health reasons such as allergy or intolerance to foods that become apparent.

Fun in the Snow
With the snow on the ground that’s caused a lot of travel delays and problems for people getting to work and school, Chris and I decided yesterday to head out into the chilly weather and enjoy a wintery walk. Wrapped up in so many layers there was very little left in our wardrobes, we were […]

A New Year Challenge Can Make You Happier
As it’s the New Year, people up and down the country and around the world will be thinking of their faults and bad habits and resolving to do better in 2013. Although I don’t disagree that there is often room for improvement in different areas of our lives, I strongly believe that making a New […]

A Happy Christmas To All
This year for Christmas, Chris and I are doing something different. No, we’re not going away on holiday, and we’re not shunning the holiday period either. As we got married 6 months ago on 23rd December, and as every year for the past 9 we’ve split up and enjoyed Christmas Dinner with our families then […]

A Musical Happy
Music speaks to people in different ways. Many people have favourite songs or particular pieces of music that mark a special day or have specific meaning for them, and this can be a fantastic way to relive a Happy, or sow a seed to create new ones. Driving to my office, a version of Everybody’s […]
