I have wanted to join in with this linky for aaaaages! I kept missing the day and wasn’t organised enough to write one in advance. I have finally sorted myself out and so here we are, my first ‘Mums’ List’.
Real life
- I am like a zombie this week. Baby L is teething and has decided that sleeping ON me is the way forward. Great.
- I have been getting ready for my return to work as a supply teacher. Red pen anyone?
- I have been searching high and low for a mystery smell in my hallway. It is driving me INSANE!!
- Had my sister and her boyfriend over for a roast dinner, she lives up the road from me but works crazy hours so I never see her!
- Sold a few baby bits on eBay, good to clear out but sad that I won’t ever use them again.
Real life weekly goal: Give the house a deep clean!
Blog & Social Media
- My most popular blog post has been about our trip to Paradise Wildlife Park.
- New blog discovery Becoming a stay at home mum.
- I had a total meltdown at the weekend when I couldn’t access my website dashboard- turns out one of my plugins was dodgy (Google + plugin)
- I have reached 914 followers on Twitter which amazes me! Only joined in May but I love it, definitely spend a bit too much time on there!
Blog & social media weekly goal: Get back onto my Pinterest account and pin some of my posts.

Hi Katy! Thank you for linking in with #thelist I can't help but smile about the fact you've meant to link in for ages and then when you do we go and change it!
Not that it matters :)
Great list but sorry about the smell! I'm fortunate in that I can't smell very well…maybe that's why our house isn't selling though…?!
Look froward to hear how you get on with your goals Hannah xx

I know! Typical eh? I am always late to the party! I love the original idea though and so will definitely carry on linking in. When we sold our house I lit scented candles EVERYWHERE! People love a candle :-)

Well done on your twitter following, that's amazing! I'm new to it too and am currently on 730, which I find crazy. Also need to spend more time on Pinterest, as I haven't done too much on that yet. Great lists x

I really love pinterest! I had a personal account for ages but never knew what to do. It is the second biggest referrer next to Twitter for me so definitely try and do a bit more so people can find your lovely blog :-) xx

I had the same problem with Google and it brought me to tears until the good folks at GoDaddy helped. I just started Twitter too. So much fun and so time consuming. Keep up the good work.

I am with GoDaddy too and they really helped me. I am much more wary of plugins now!!

Argh... oh how I can relate to the mystery smell - unfortunately I found mine and it was quite disgusting. I would keep bending down to pick things up off the floor by our kitchen stools and get a whiff of urine - absolutely gross! I couldn't work it out - a couple of days later I worked it the smell was coming from our stools. My two year old had been potty training and had an accident on one of them, (they have a wicker seat)... I stupidly tipped each one and yep you guessed it the offending stool emptied out on the floor. I hope you're offending smell is a little less disturbing! I also need to get to work on my Pinterest account!

Oh my god! That is truly awful lol!! At least you found it! We are still searching, we think it is the washing machine, maybe a rotting sock somewhere!! Totally gross!
