A new blog design!

Posted on June 18, 2018 By Becky

pretty fabulous blog theme example

Hi all, after several days offline, my blog is back and I’m so happy with the result!

You know the saying “a change is as good as a rest”? Well, I definitely feel that having a new blog design can be a breathe of blogging fresh air, and I’m so happy with this result after nearly 2 years of my old design. 

Whilst my menus and categories are the same title-wise for the time being, I love the layout of each category page, so posts are easy to find and see. 

I couldn’t have done this without the help of the wonderful Susan from One Happy Studio over in the US, who spent time installing a new theme and fixing a few glitches- stuff that I just haven’t had time for and would’ve taken me a frustrating amount of said-time had I tried to tackle it myself.

I highly recommend her- best $50 I’ve ever spent!

I would love to hear your feedback on the new-look blog: what looks good, what works (and what doesn’t). 

Normal service has now resumed… I best get back to work, I have a whole load of blog posts to crack on with!

On juggling freelance life with a baby, and a little mind dump

Posted on April 22, 2018August 13, 2021

Slight apologies in advance as this is probably more of a rambling mind dump, but also a check-in “hey, i’m still here” kind of post. It’s been 10 days since I wrote a blog post, which for some people who blog isn’t any time at all, but for myself, who…

My first vlog- oo-er!

These past few days of half term have been a write-off, due to the fact I’ve been floored by a grim chest infection and viral thing, that has sadly scuppered my holiday plans with the children. Massive ‘sad face’ here, as I was so looking forward to spending time with…

How I stay motivated working from home

Posted on May 18, 2023August 14, 2024

For many people working from home is considered the holy grail of the work/parent life balance—you can roll out of bed and straight onto your laptop, get the kids to school, and then come home and crack on with work (buh bye long commute), before heading back to school to…

    I love it Becky! I’m wondering if that’s what I need to get myself back and motivate again. I’ve lost my blogging mojo somewhere along the way and am finding it really difficult to get motivated. Did you get someone else to do it for you? xx
