Christmas is coming

It has been quite a strange year and with the lockdowns and isolation we as a family felt the need to put up our Christmas decorations although the eldest daughter keeps telling me its too early.  She has just turned 13 and seems to have lost her Christmas spirit, thankfully the younger one who is 11 is as excited as she has always been.

As an older Mum with peri-menopause symptoms, sometimes its hard to be fun and lively.  I must say losing hormones makes me feel rather grumpy and I have a can't be bothered attitude (ha a bit like a teenager) so I am thankful at this time in my life I do have a fun and energetic daughter to keep me feeling happy and to give me get up and go.

This is our tree and for the first time I let the girls decorate it themselves, I think they did a lovely job.  Don't let them know I moved a few ornaments.

As I mentioned in my last post I love entering competitions and this time of year is the best with so many advent competitions around.  I have compiled a list on my Advent Competitions page and I will add to this as I see/find new ones.

Please feel free to use this list and share with your friends.

What else do I do?

Before having children I worked as an Holistic Therapist (offering Reiki, EFT, Crystal Therapy and HOPI ear candling), with the girls getting older and their need for my time lessened 2 years ago I decided to start this business up again as I missed working with energy and helping people. This is my website Solace Healing and Therapy. Covid has unfortunately put a hold on this business seeing people face to face, but I can still offer EFT through video link which has been really helpful. 

I also enjoy crafting and making things but there gets to a point I can't keep everything I make.  I started my facebook page Lots of Personality so I can show and sell my handmade items whilst also selling personalised gifts which I personalise myself.  Along with this I have started making semi precious stone jewellery which I sell in my facebook group Jen's Gemstones along with other holistic items.  

Please feel free to have a look at my facebook pages and my website, you may see something you like or you may want to try EFT.

When I get some spare time I like to enter competitions, I have been entering competitions for about 10 years now and I have had some amazing wins. 

Wordpress lost my site

It has been 2 years since I last posted on this blog.  I did change over 2 years ago to wordpress which I had updated until a year ago.  I was hoping to start blogging again but put it aside hoping wordpress would find my site but unfortunately thats not happening.

I will start up again on this site as it has been reliable enough not to lose my site, thank goodness.
My children are now 12 and 11.  They have little interest in toys but do love boardgames and  they like playing roblox and Among us.
