Habit forming 4 – the good, the bad and the really really irritating

Habit forming 4 – the good, the bad and the really really irritating

Do you have a habit you’d love to break? Perhaps your other half does something that drives you up the wall?  Lately I’ve been reading a book about the habits of successful people and it got me to thinking about my own habits – good and bad – and wondering about other people’s. I’m a nosy cow and love to find out a bit about folk that not everybody knows so I thought I’d ask around some of my blogging community and find out what they consider to be their habits, for better or worse and see if we have anything in common.

6 ways to keep babies and small children cool in hot weather

6 ways to keep babies and small children cool in hot weather

I don’t know about you, but this heat is already kicking my arse.  It’s bad enough when you’re having to deal with the effects of the heat when you’re more used to the kind of damp mediocrity we call ‘weather’ here in the South East, but when you’re stuck at home all day (and night) with small children who are also adversely affected it can be a new form of hell entirely.

From lack of sleep to the more serious worries about sunburn and heat stroke, looking after small people in hot weather is a stressful business. A stressful business only made worse when, instead of lounging by a pool in a tile-lined mediterranean villa designed for the heat, you’re stuck in an over-insulated 2 bed semi with a pocket handkerchief of a garden and no trees.

John Lewis versus Sainsburys – battle of the Christmas advert 2015!

John Lewis versus Sainsburys – battle of the Christmas advert 2015!

I remember last year well. My belly was swollen with child, my Boy was not yet 3 and, therefore, still rather sweet than otherwise, Christmas music was playing on every speaker and the John Lewis Christmas advert with the penguin was on repeat on my laptop for The Boy’s amusement.  Not so this year. We’ve watched the ‘Man in the Moon’ just twice and then he completely lost interest and hasn’t mentioned it since.  Yesterday we were notified of the new Sainsbury’s ad and, oh dear John Lewis, you’ve lost your crown. Mog the cat in all her CGI glory, thankfully resurrected for Christmas 2015 – walking tree and all.
