Hello and happy Thursday. Almost the end of another week.
Now to say I love music would be an understatement, as I can’t stand a day without it and is what keeps me going, along with the people I love and writing.
There is a song I discovered which I absolutely love and wanted to share because it is such a catchy happy song:
The other song I rediscovered is a song called “Right Here Waiting for you” Such a romantic lovely song.
I love a good old love song and this one really grabs the heart.
Music for me is like a personal message, that the song was written for me, and not for anyone else.
It is something that will never ending, as there will be music being produced and there are so many brilliant songs out there, that often I am like a kid in a sweet shop.
I have now created some fantastic playlists and has saved me so much money, that I haven’t bought a CD for years.
So keep listening to those gorgeous songs and let me know what songs you have been listening to at the moment. You can leave a comment below.

So just now whilst I was having some quiet time listening to music, I came across Fred Astaire and Ginger Rodgers, and every time I watch them, which now I am into other things have not watched for along time, they still blow me away.
They were such an iconic couple, making film after film with their beautiful dancing.
Check out this clip below of them tap dancing together in the film, Swing Time:
This is one of the reasons I am a big fan of Strictly come dancing because of the performances and the dancing.
It is a proper Saturday night show, and I fall in love with it each time.
If I could pick an ideal date it would be to go out dancing, as I just love it.
Anyone can dance okay not everyone can be like Fred Astaire or Ginger Rodgers but anyone can get up on the dance floor and move. I love to dance and let myself go, when I go to a concert I always make sure I am standing not sitting so I can dance the night away.
It is a good way to keep fit and let your hair down.
So let me know if you too like dancing and Strictly come dancing by commenting below and remember to keep following me on WordPress.com to keep up to date with blogs.

Hi there and welcome to another post. In this blog post I am sharing some of favourite fashion looks that I have put together for this week.
I love fashion and like to do a look book to help inspire me and get the most out of my wardrobe. I will be posting on a weekly basis, sharing some looks from my look book to inspire others who love fashion too.
This is a classic look and great for this time of year. I love a classic vest top, with a nice comfortable fitted cardigan, a well cut quality pair of jeans and a pair of wedged shoes.
I find a wedge shoes is often easier to wear than a court shoe, plus they work well with a good pair of jeans.
Do you have a black dress. This dress is gorgeous and fits women like me are curvy and I wanted to add some colour so found (above) a lovely pair of stripy coloured stilettos and a bag to match.
I put together some heart jewelry to finish off the look.
Many thanks for reading,

So yesterday and this morning I have been creating myself a new wardrobe and so I wanted to use this makeover to write this blog.
Here are some of My Top Ten Fashion Pieces:
Black trousers always must in my book for work, going out or for casual use. They are such a versatile that they can be worn all year round.
The other item I would have is a white shirt. Now with kids it isn’t always wise as dirt shows up easily, but again can be dressed up or down and can be worn all year round.
3. Denim Jacket. I love having this type of jacket as it is such an easy bit of clothing to wear and I have gotten compliments for wearing won with sequins on.
4. A red top which can be worn up or down, such a nice colour and if you are brunette and pale skin this is the top for you.
5. A Black dress. Now I do try to stay away from black but I do think a simple and elegant black dress is a must have for your all year round wardrobe.
6. Now I do love a pair of shoes and here are some of my favourite styles
7. A good quality Leather jacket as they are great for the Autumn, winter and spring.
8. White vest top. Great for layering up, with a cardigan, with a skirt or trousers and would be great with the Leather Jacket above
9. A Good quality cardigan. I love a cardigan it is like comfort blanket wrapped around you.
10. A good off the should top, great for casual wear and dressing up.
So they are my top ten fashion pieces and please share yours favourite pieces and I will post again on this site next week, so remember to click the follow button below to keep up to date with my blog posts, but until next time, many thanks for reading,

Hello and welcome to another blog. I can’t believe first of all that it is Monday again, start of a new week, yet I have come to realise a lot of things.
I have lost a couple of friends but have gained some new ones, who are my support network at the moment and realised that those that seem to have been on my side weren’t.
So far this year I have had so many ups and downs that some days it has been “Why did I even get up this morning?” but then I have had others where I have thought “Not so bad today”.
When I feel down I rely on my music or speak to my new Love, and these have been what has kept me going.
I have found as I have gotten older my point of view has changed, and realised that I do have talents and that it is time for me to flourish and become the successful person I want to be.
I had more or less been a Housewife, but that was not what I wanted to be at all. I do housework to keep myself busy but if I had a magic wand that did it all, I would most definitely use it.
With the lockdown it has made do some training, lots of writing and catching up on Youtube.
There is always something to do in my book hence why I have been productive and used the Lockdown to get things I wouldn’t necessarily get done otherwise.
I think we can all use this time to run errands at home, and in the long run whilst not many shops are not open, save ourselves time and money.
Please remember you can keep up to date with my blogs by following me and will continue post on this twice a week, and there will be some new videos coming too.
Many thanks for reading.

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:

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)
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.
Now it is time for me to get on with my day, I am in my dressing gown and PJ bottoms, and I will continue to write some blogs by end of the day too and see you then, to video all my blogs I have written so far please go to:
