So it's the beginning of September and that can only mean one thing.... the kids are back to school!!! Yay freedom lol. I always enjoy the first four weeks of having them at home and being able to take them out on days out and then the last two weeks drag. The fighting and "i'm bored mum" really begin to grate. So I was definitely one of the mums doing a little dance at the school gate. My eldest Mia has just started secondary school. How scary! I am a mixture of excited for her and worried because I know what I used to get up too. Plus it makes me feel extremely old. She is having a great time though and I am super proud of both her and my son Connor who went into year 4 this year. So it has been a while since a last posted around 3 months and that is because I was without a laptop and keeping my blog updated without one was a nightmare to say the least. Although I was slacking on the blogging front I was still doing my best to enter competitions although I did miss out on a good few because Rafflecopter and Gleam weren't an option.
I did have a few wins starting with the one that saved my bacon £100 from the National Lottery Facebook page. I used it to go towards the school uniform. As you all know it can be really expensive to kit them out so it came just at the right time. No one can say my hobby isn't profitable lol I also had a lovely little win for the Interior Shed Facebook page (picture below). Another giveaway I entered was on the H Samuel Instagram page for some Tommy Hilfiger jewellery and that was a further win for me. When it arrived I was stunned. It was a lovely bangle and a pair of studs. My daughter also caught sight of the bangle and begged me for it so naturally I said no ..... and then put it away for her for Christmas. I am determined to try and win as much as I can for Christmas this year so watch out for the new page Winning Christmas that is coming soon.
