Tips For Reducing Air Pollution Outdoors

June 21, 2018 by SimplyBeingMum

This is a sponsored post in support of National Clean Air Day 21 June 2018 Did you know National Clean Air Day is 21 June 2018? If you didn't... you do now. Did you also know it's estimated as many as 40,000 deaths each year are caused by the air we breathe when we are out and about? I didn't. It's quite a daunting figure, isn't it? What we ...

Summer or Autumn (Fall) You Decide

September 3, 2017 by SimplyBeingMum

From where I type I can hear the distant hum of a washing machine drum turning with the sound of the last remnants of holiday laundry being spun after another Great British adventure. Yes, The Wright's are back from our travels, and if my eyes do not deceive me, I can see September on the kitchen calendar. Where did August go? They do say time flies ...

Safer Internet Day 2017 | Musical.ly

February 7, 2017 by SimplyBeingMum

Today is Safer Internet Day 2017 I've been blogging (and using social media) publicly since October 2010 - using non-private accounts. This was a decision as a mid-thirty something woman I took - but not lightly. I am not naive nor over-trusting. I operate with caution online - to the best of my ability - and that is why there are no images of my ...

I Have No Words Today

November 25, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

As a blogger I should have the words to describe how today makes me feel. I don't. The scene below brings to mind 'desperation' -  those who are starving being thrown scraps in order to survive. It's debasing. This form of consumption is not needed for survival. UK retailers take some responsibility. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpTJuiWz6LM ...

Summer Blogging Backlog

August 11, 2016 by SimplyBeingMum

Summer is in full swing. Summer as in the 'season'. Summer as in the 'weather' not so much so in the UK. We are halfway through and I have not blogged at all - not once. Whaaat? Here at Chez Wright we schedule the holidays - and usually I blog about it, but haven't this year. Why? Life seems to have sped up. As a 'Work At Home Mum' I've been ...

Bit Of A Round Up

December 4, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

Just checking in Guys. It's Food Waste Friday - and once again no post - but there is a Friday fridge photo over at Facebook. I really do have a good reason, hand on heart. As I haven't followed my Friday routine once again I thought I'd pop by and do a little bit of a round-up. Firstly thank you to everyone who entered the Twinings tea giveaway. ...

Checking In

May 13, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

I thought I ought to check in. No I haven't gone into hiding. I'm in the process of moving to another host, and it's taking a little time to move everything. After all there's almost 5 years of my ramblings and snaps to pack up and unpack in the new home. It was time to make the move. With my increasing technical skills (well kind of) and my plans to do ...

Losing My Way

March 19, 2015 by SimplyBeingMum

I feel I've lost my way recently, since just before Christmas. Circumstances have meant I've struggled to blog regularly and effectively, and I've gone off track. The intention was to blog better this year, but then another bad news bomb dropped. Truly I'm expecting Ashton Kutcher to appear and declare "You've been punk'd!" The decision has been made ...

Merry Christmas 2014

December 24, 2014 by SimplyBeingMum

I'd like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas! ...

Open House / Giving Thanks

November 27, 2014 by SimplyBeingMum

It's Thursday. This means the blog is open. I'm here waiting for you to pop by for our virtual chat. I can't offer you an actual cup of coffee (or tea - after all I'm a Brit), but you can grab your own and take the weight off. But it's not just any old Thursday. It's Thanksgiving Thursday. We do not celebrate Thanksgiving in the UK. This is ...
