New Year, Same Beginning... Or how I've not found my inner calm!

Hello, and happy new year to you all! I realise that I'm actually two weeks late and that more than likely all the festivities seem an age away to you, but the thought is there.

If you're anything like me, it will have taken you a while to get back into the rhythmn of normal life. The school runs, baby groups and a bottomless washing basket have taken up a lot of my time this year (!) but before I can establish any kind of new routine there is one thing hanging over me...

It's the same every January and you'd think I'd learn but apparently not. I hate these adverts so much! I'm so jealous of the people pictured finding their 'inner calm' that they make my blood boil. It feels like they are mocking me from the bus stops, the billboards and even from the radio!

So it is with a heavy heart that I must put everything else that I'd like to do on the back burner until February. I'll be back then with all the usual posts, including Kids Clothes Week (2-9 February)

Good luck to everyone else who is in the same lazy boat as me, hope you get all your receipts to work out :)
