At the moment we are having to change our lifestyle due to the Lockdown and the one thing it has helped me is stay focused on the one thing that I is starting to create a passive income and that is my writing.
I today wrote a blog on my Bloglovin Blog page and that is called 12 Hacks on Creating a book.
The purpose of my blogs is to give support in parenting, being successful and to try and use the time we have at the moment being stuck indoors a time to be overly inspired.
So thank you for all of you who have been reading and following my blogs and look forward to posting more during the week on these following sites:

Getting through this Pandemic
Happy Easter to everyone!
It has been a testing time with so many people still suffering and dying with this Pandemic it is no wonder people are doing so much to keep their spirits high by singing on air and there is a brilliant example rendition of the song Bring Me Home which was done on This Morning.
Why not get on it too and make some videos if your own, there are so much you can still share like sorting out the garden, unfortunately no garden centres are open, but doesn’t mean you can’t have sort through and a tidy up.
There are even stars doing dance routines, exercise and teaching dance lessons for those stuck indoors, so why not take advantage.
I have written a blogpost of my weekly newsletter wishing everyone a Happy Easter and sharing the true story behind easter what it is truly about, check out my post in the link below:
So lets get ourselves some coffee or tea sit back and enjoy these videos that I watch a lot of for your entertainment:
This is brilliant song to get up buzzing when looking after my son we often will put some tunes and dance in the living room, plus great when having to do the poxie housework.
Gladys Knight – I Don’t Want To Know (Official Video)
Charlie Rich – The Most Beautiful Girl (Official Audio)
Do you fancy doing some dirty dancing in your living room then why not make some hot muffins, cakes or even popcorn and watch the classic film “Dirty Dancing”
So get those cameras out and lets get filming of course keep it clean and not to give you much away for your own safety and hear is link to various clean with me videos, great content really does boost your energy to have a clean out and sort through.

Lifestyle living/music and comedy to help people through this Pandemic
Hi all this has got to be my fourth blog written within 24 hours. I am on a role but I feel I need to just keep going, that’s how I feel right now.
It has been a tough time with many people have been confirmed including some celebs to have the Coronovirus that I wanted to help give people some good content to read. Here are the posts I have written so far since yesterday:
https://buildingselfconfidencetud.blogspot.com/2020/03/self-doubt-and-being-stuck-in-rut.html
http://everyonecanbuildacastle.com/2020/03/27/newsletter-blog-and-self-confidence-post/
I am listening to some fantastic tunes on Magic FM brilliant station or it is Radio Jackie and they both play some brilliant music from Queen to Robbie Williams to Simply Red.
I was listening to Annie today here the famous song from the hit musical Tomorrow
The other classic I am loving is one my Vera Lynn and has been re-released to celebrate her birthday who is now 103 years old and still thriving and wanted to release for those missing their families due to the coronovirus.
Using music and comedy to help people through this pandemic to me is truly special and sums up how these two can be formed to help bring smiles to people’s faces.
I do hope you stay well if you can lets hope this all passes so we can all return to normal.

Food and Beverage/Grocery Haul
Please check out my newest video to help you should you be wanting to shop for some worth while food a grocery haul.
Today in Sainsbury’s it was busy as all NHS registered staff and their families as long not more than two or so people can shop early and get priority in the mornings at the moment at some stores, so if you work for NHS then take your pass and you can get priority and go in first.
The other thing to remember is to give yourself extra time as they can only have a certain amount of people in the stores at once so you will need to bare that in mind.
Also remember to take your debit or credit card as they weren’t accepting cash only card payments only.
Many thanks for reading,

The Celebration of the woman
On Sunday it was National Women’s Day, a time to celebrate us ladies and lets face it not being sexist at all, we do a lot in the world.
We invented Cricket which not a lot of people don’t know about, but they did and baseball and we have many a sporting hero.
They used to fly the planes over to countries in the second world war, they worked in many factories whilst the men went to fight in the war and there were the suffragettes fighting for women rights.
There was a time when the world was lead by men, but now it is so different. We have women all over the world speaking out such as Mel Robbins, Oprah Winfrey and Michelle Obama, and that is just to name a few.
Women now have rights that they never had before and more companies are owned by women, there are female bloggers like myself and many female comedians too.
They create homes for their families and there are more bread winners now than there was before.
So lets raise a glass of good old fashion wine or even a cuppa and say cheers to all women kind.
