Hello there,
as we are approaching the end of August, I thought I would write a little list of things that made me happy this month.
In no particular order. (I could be the Xfactor host... ha-ha)
1. Taking my Daughters to Kidzania, it's a role play city where kids get to experience doing jobs and earning money, it's situated in westfield shopping centre in London, (there is more all over the world) taking them here made me very happy as they have been so excited to visit this place for about a year and watching them having heaps of fun there makes my heart feel all warm and fuzzy.
2. Picnics in the park. We do this a lot when the weather is nice, cheap family days out and we can all let off some energy and also meet up with family & friends.
3. London day out, my Children really wanted to visit the sugglife x PB (#SLxPB) pop up shop in Covent garden, it's YouTubers Zoella (Zoe sugg) ThatcherJoe (Joe sugg) and Pointless blog (Alfie Deyes) collab on merchandise, selling hoodies, phone cases, posters and other bits, this made me happy seeing my Children happy and we made a day of it around London.
4. Discovering Caramel Frappè's from McDonalds... naughty treat but absolutely love them.
5. Finding out about a park we've never heard of through a page called 'Milton Keynes kids' on Facebook. This made me very happy as it's an amazing park for a day out, so much to do. I loved it so much I wrote a blog post about it. The place is called Stanwick Lakes in Northamptonshire, they have assault course, adventure trail, playground, cafe, bike hire and even a little area indoors.
6. The sun coming out again, no more grey skies, rain and Autumn weather, instead, lovely sunshine so we could all wear our summer clothes again and enjoy family evening walks before it starts getting darker.
7. Signing up to Twitter & Instagram as Jan's little life, this made me happy as I can communicate and share with amazing, wonderful people on social media. Love seeing the amazing photos of people's lives and reading their stories.
8. School shopping, I am adding this because usually this is very stressful, this year it has been so easy and stress free, even school shoes shopping which I'm usually tearing my hair out with, not this year, we win at school shopping, we nailed it which makes me happy!
9. Izombie on Netflix. This makes me happy because I've just finished season 1 and it's hard for me to find a series I can watch when my mind is busy (I have anxiety) and can't concentrate fully on a series that really needs your full attention. It's a light hearted, funny crime series with a zombie who works in a morgue, she eats the brains of dead people, then has flash backs which helps the police in finding the killers... it's brilliant.
10. A last minute trip to the local pub to meet up with some friends, having my friends phone me up begging me (nagging and not letting me get away with not going) to go and meet them for a drink made me feel so loved and happy. It wasn't a wild night out, just kids playing in the pub garden while we all chatted and caught up with each other.
It's the little things in life that are so very precious.
What made you happy recently? I would love to read your happy things, please leave a comment with the things that's made you happy.
Thank you for reading
Ta ta for now
