Treat your marriage like a business…
It felt like it was only yesterday I was celebrating the New Year on my pretty impressive street filled with flame throwers, balancing acts and a bit of limbo. As January draws to a close, I sit here and reflect on something my husband and I have really clung to. Weekly check-ins! That’s right. We…
Work Life Balance: I can’t sleep if any stone is left unturned!
This week I noticed a quality and simultaneous negative trait in myself that I was able to overcome! I was talking to a colleague and giving them advice when it dawned on me that I’ve overcome one of my greatest struggles in my working life. I was once upon a time unable to leave any…
The Numbers – You know that budget? Double it!
6 Years ago we bought our first property. It was so long ago that I feel like I had a little process amnesia. Being a first time buyer was soooo much easier than being a home mover. The extra baggage creeps up on you and you don’t realise that you’ve accumulated so much stuff! Let’s…

The evil chain that stole my dream home – No chain, no pain. New builds
Part 3 It’s no secret that I’m not fond of New Builds or Schemes (Help to Buy, Shared Ownership etc), but during this rigmarole I was forced to eat my previous words. When you are buying a New Build they tend to be chain free. You don’t have to worry about an upper chain and…
The evil chain that stole my dream home – House hunting in a pandemic
Part 2 When we started house hunting in March 2020 it was a ghost town. We had agents at our beck and call and were spoilt for choice. The houses that were on the market had been there for a while, no real haste and vendors were happy to get people through their doors. As…
