  • Time for My First Ever Post as a Blogger

    Intro:
    I’ve decided it’s time to write my very first blog post and share a little piece of my life with you.


    Who I Am

    People often tell me they don’t know how I manage to do everything I do — but I love keeping busy!

    At the moment, I am:

    • Wife
    • Mum
    • Grandma
    • Daughter
    • Sister
    • Carer
    • Welfare Officer
    • Volunteer
    • Dog owner

    Life is full, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.


    Looking Back

    I am 56 years old and have been with my hubby since I was 17. We got married in 1991 and have been happily married for 34 years.

    When I think back to when I first met him, I was a very different person — quiet and shy. Over the years, I’ve grown more confident, adventurous, and ready to embrace life fully.


    My Life Today

    I am mum to three beautiful daughters:

    • Eldest daughter: has a three-year-old daughter
    • Middle daughter: has a five-year-old son and a three-year-old daughter
    • Youngest daughter: expecting her first baby in January 2026

    In 2021, my husband and I downsized from our family home of over 20 years to move closer to our daughters.

    When my daughters returned to work after maternity leave, I started helping out with childcare. My friends think I’m crazy to give up so much of my time, but I absolutely love it and feel grateful that I can support them.


    Life as a Busy Grandma

    Being a grandma, wife, and volunteer keeps my days full and lively. I hope you enjoy reading about my life, my adventures, and the joys (and occasional chaos!) of being a busy grandma.d lively.
