http://www.sky.fm Check out this website and there is an app for iphones. There are many channels, including 70’s, 80’s, 90’s, country, top hits, relaxation, etc. I put my phone in the dock of my stereo and usually choose 80’s and having it loud for cleaning the house. It’s continuous music and it’s FREE. You can pay a small amount to have premium, but I haven’t bothered with that. Check it out.
I’m looking forward to having a clean and organised house in 4 weeks time… thank you so much!!

I love listening to some Ballroom Dancing or Zumba cd’s….I start hearing that Latin beat and my hips and feet can’t help themselves – they gotta start jiggling! Mind you, the dog gets a bit confused seeing me Tango across the room with a broom as my dance partner….good thing he can’t talk or my family would have me certified…..!

In all honesty though, I have a lot of boxes I like ticked when picking the perfect vacuum cleaner. Visit the link in my bio to see if Miele’s first handstick vacuum managed to tick all these boxes for me!

My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching My day has consisted of a moment of binge watching Firefly Lane. Then running kids around. 

I’m putting a candle on to sit for a moment. Then it involves more mums taxi. I’ll cherish these moments though cause they will stop soon enough. Then what am I going to do when I’m not running kids around? Ooh the thought 🤪
