About Me

Welcome to my blog!


I am a mammy to three fabulous young children and wife to my wonderful husband but I am also many other things and have many other interests. I am more than just a mammy but sometimes it takes a whole lot of effort and time to be me and to not lose sight of the other parts of my life that make me who I am.


I love being a mammy and I love my kids deeply and unconditionally. They fill my life with joy and a few headaches, they make me laugh out loud and giggle till it hurts, they drive me crazy with love and frustration and the biggest reward and challenge is that they take up almost every minute of my day!!


I am primarily a stay at home mammy but I also work two days a month out of the home and work some hours from home as part of this job. I have a huge interest in interior design and buy lots of house magazines every month. I enjoy planning and organising get-together's both big and small but also I like nothing better that a cup of tea and a good chat with friends. 

I am also great at making lists but not so good at getting through them. I spend my day thinking about what I have to do, what I haven’t done and what time it is. I want to do as much as I can each day not just for my kids but also for me. I want to change the focus of my life to being more than just mammy and to not forget me in all this mammy madness!  


This blog is about doing something for me! This blog is about me sharing my thoughts about whatever makes me stop and think. It’s about what makes me happy, sad, mad and laugh that day….. a pause for thought if you like! Its about all aspects of my life and all the things that inspire me and challenge me. This is my journey of how I juggle being Mammy and being Me. I hope that you enjoy reading my blog and that you too get something from it. If you like what you read or have something to add, please let me know - I appreciate all comments….
