Bio
HOW I GOT HERE
I was born into somewhat simple means.
The first few years of my childhood were spent learning street law on the mean streets of the council estate I grew up on, where they ate dorky little girls for breakfast.
Knowing I had to make an escape from a town that many have described as “smelling like a chicken’s crotch”, I cut my hair and became extremely socially awkward in order to avoid the temptation of making friends or having fun in school so that I was able to devote all spare time to studying and perfecting my royal wave for my new role as carnival queen.
My plan paid off and before I knew it I was laying in a pool of my own vomit behind KFC and wearing the best outfit money can buy.
I had arrived.
The next four years are pretty much a blur of Natural Light, lots of partying and girls only holidays.
After college I got a job at a shoe shop as a sales assistant. I quickly worked up to a managers role, and soon was traveling all over Oxfordshire training other managers.
While working in the shoe shop I met and feel deeply in love with my now husband James.
After a few years of actually having the perfect life filled with all the shoes a girl could possible want I fell pregnant and decided to quit my job and fulfill my lifelong dream of being a stay at home mum.
My first few weeks at home were tough. And by tough I mean I thought about jumping out the window several times a day. What I thought would be days filled with long naps and having lunch with friends were spent alternating my blank and vacant gaze between the TV screen and the front window where I spent a significant amount of time willing my husband’s car to magically pull into the driveway.
So one day I started writing. And I wrote and I wrote and I wrote. Then I was back to staring out the window so I needed to find something to do.
So that’s why I started blogging.
The end.
Oh wait, about five minutes after my husband and I decided that we were going to wait a couple of years to have another baby, I found out I was pregnant again.
For those of you keeping score, that’s 2 children in 12 months.
The end.
