Why there is sponsored content on Someone’s Mum

Someone's Mum wither her daughter and her son, stroking a rabbit. Sponsored content allows her to spend more time with her family.

On the 26th of October, I received this comment on one of my blog posts: As I am sure many of my blogging colleagues, and, in fact, anyone with a social media account can understand, seeing an unexpectedly cruel and pejorative comment from an anonymous internet commenter can knock you for six. It did me.… Read More

Before You Were Mine

Before you were mine - children sleeping

Before you were mine, little ones, I painted my nails. I chose exotic colours – blue chrome and hot pink, sparkles and crackle and base coat and top coats, French polish and high gloss.
