This year we are planning a big overhaul on the work life balance front.
Last year through the summer we had intended to take so much more time off all together and instead we squeezed in a week in Wales but the rest was hit and miss as Ollie and I were like ships that passed in the night. And if I am honest I missed him and missed the kids as my work took off and time was more about balancing than fun and family.
For me 2020 is going to be about packing in fun and family with every space ounce of my being.
I turned 40 last year and I want to savour this decade of my life and make memories. The last decade saw me fall in love, marry, build 2 businesses and give birth to 2 amazing boys and it was an amazing decade but it was truly exhausting and so I want this one to slow down and allow me to drink it all in.
Since travel and adventures are top of the list of priories this year we are aiming to travel somewhere once a month. Obviously this doesn’t have to be set in stone as some months we maybe super busy. But the aim is to get at least 12 adventures under our belts and I know the spring and summer months will certainly produce most of our trips.
This month we are going to hopefully visit Creswell Crags as a family as I haven’t been since I was a kids and the kids have never been. So here is hoping that even the mud can’t stop us!
We have already put a deposit down on a summer camping trip to Budle Baby Campsite in Northumberland with our new tent (Thank goodness for black Friday deals) Other camping trips I would love to get in are some local ones in Nottinghamshire but also we are currently looking at some a little further afield too!
Day trip adventures are also in the spotlight too and with a second visit to Crich Tramway Museum on the cards after loving our last trip last year. We are also hoping to visit Tycross Zoo with my Mum and Dad too.
