It’s been a while

It’s been a good while since I last posted. Much of this time has seen me start and stop posts at various moment. Fifteen months later now and I guess I need to put something down! First things first, I can’t quite believe that both my kids are out of school now? I officially have…

365 days done!

I am confident the next year will be busier and I hope filled with as much stuff, actually maybe a little less on the compliance side!

What’s in a job……….

In a few days’ time I will have completed two months as a partner in Brandesign. It is hard to believe how quickly the time has passed. What’s more amazing to me is how at home I feel and how much I have already grown…..
