  • WHY IT’S OKAY TO DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ON HOLIDAY | QUEENBEADY

    WHY IT’S OKAY TO DO ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ON HOLIDAY | QUEENBEADY

    If you’d have told me back in January 2016 when I booked our holiday to the Dominican Republic through Ice Lolly, I’d have thought you were mad telling me that we’d spend a week of doing nothing. I’d have laughed in your face with a big ol’ LOLZA. You see, as much as holidays are for relaxing we often find ourselves adventuring out a bit and very rarely spend a week doing sweet F.A. Sadly, I was struck down with a bout of V&D due to exhaustion (my body just decided to give up on me) I was reduced to staying close to the hotel room, you know, just in case.

    In today’s post I’m referring to the small successes we are greeted with in life. Of course, big events can comes with an amazing sense of achievement but there is also something quite euphoric about the small glories we make throughout our life. For me there have been many moments like this. People could look at them and think nothing of it, “what on earth could you feel ecstatic about that for?” – you know the one’s, resigned to doom and gloom. I adore championing people when they’ve accomplished something they are particularly proud of, big or small. I also feel it should be something that others try and take on board, too. Wouldn’t the world be a nicer place if we all did this from time to time?

    They really do say laughter is the best medicine. It’s free and so easy to obtain, it’s all within our own power to use it. So why on earth don’t we rely on it a lot more? I feel like the world can be such a sad, sorry state of affairs where everyone gets so consumed with political correctness and the monstrosities that go on that we just need to let ourselves be a little bit more, well, free.

    Slippers Wyndors

    It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas in the Clayton residence. This Sunday after a very busy (and slightly hungover) weekend we decided it was time to get the Christmas tree out of the attic and put it up. I have to admit despite various “Christmas” outings I still haven’t felt in the mood. But, Sunday was the day to do it. I decided to pull myself together, so I put on these gorgeous slippers from Wynsor Shoes, put the kettle on and got the decs out to have a super festive afternoon.

    Yeah, that title probably isn’t going to sit too well with Mum’s out there. I apologise profusely if it offends you, however, why should I say sorry? I’m 25 and I’ve not had kids yet. But why do I feel like I feel like I might as well bear child? That’s where social media comes in. Everyday I will scroll through my Facebook feed of loving, adorable snaps of people’s kids, and then some more kids, oh and here’s another baby for good measure, ”Oh would you like baba with that ironic photo too?”
