30 something

People always say that their 20s are the best times of their lives, I knew once I hit 28/29 my 30s would be my best times.
At 29 I qualified as a Teaching Assistant, I had finally given myself a career path. I worked hard and it paid off, I landed my first job in a school just a few months later.
I am now 31, much more experienced and looking at what is next for me, where will I be come September. Things happen for a reason, things change for a reason, but life goes on and it's what you make of it that really counts.

"Eventually all the pieces fall into place ... until then, laugh at the confusion, live for the moment, and know that everything happens for a reason." - Carrie Bradshaw


Things have changed for me over the last couple of months, I've found myself wondering where life will take me next. I want so much all at the same time, but let's be honest, that will never happen. We are currently trying to save up for our dream holiday to Orlando, Florida, but at the same time also need realistic things, such as new furniture, a new bed, a tv and laptop, all of which can cost a lot of money, I just want to be able to say that by the end of this year we have been able to work our socks off and go on holiday to see Mickey mouse.

Look back at our Orlando holiday 2015 - Part 1

One thing you should know about me is that I love Disney, but when I go to Orlando I do love seeing Universal Studios. These two places are my absolute favourites. No other places compare. If I'm not talking about them then I am dreaming about them, they are constantly on my mind, I even wear clothes that represent them and have quite the collection now. I'm going through a moment where all I want to do is look at holidays to Orlando, but working in schools means I have to go during the school holidays so prices can be extraordinary. I may have to do this post in two parts - Universal Studios and Walt Disney World. So let's get on with it. Let's begin with Universal Studios and Islands of Adventure. I absolutely love these parks, and this time round it was so much more exciting for me, and here's why; So when I went back in September 2015 I went with my husband Paul and my Dad. It was Paul's first time so this meant more to me than ever, because I thoug...

Easter Time

Working in a school means I get the joys of having plenty of holidays, or I'd like to think, so here's what happened with my holidays: I got 4 days off for Easter and it was lovely. On Good Friday We had originally planned to go to Chester Zoo and take my nephew, but the weather wasn't looking too good, so we went to my brother's house instead. I hadn't seen them for about a month, but while i was there i got to see my nephew standing up on his own, it was magical, I'm so proud of how well he's doing. My brother put out a lovely spread for us all, it was just delicious. Time always seems to fly by when we get together. And I love the time we all get to spend together. With Isaac only being 9 months old and dairy free we didn't get him an Easter egg, but what we did get him was a dairy free lolly pop and 2 dinosaur teddies; we named them Tyrone and Tracey haha.  He absolutely loved them, was besotted by Tyrone. We must have talked and played fo...
