About Me ...

I'm a learner blogger with two sons, two dogs, two jobs and just the one husband - for now - performing the usual motherly/careery juggling act.

The career path I was happily following took a bit of a zig zag when children and an offer we couldn’t refuse to live in Portugal for three years intervened. Freelance work and training as a part time outdoor fitness instructor too meant the trade-off between sleep, income, sanity and guilt was not always a fair one for a while.

Now I work full-time nearby and here's where I whinge or wax lyrical(ish) about all that.
