Latest in Something for the Weekend

So I ended up skipping out on my Something for the Weekend for December because I took a break between Christmas and New Year and I was planning on posting this last Friday but I was recovering from a bug on my sofa so that didn't happen! But hey, better late than...

November has been a bit of a whirlwind for me as, after months of talking about it, we finally put our house on the market to sell. And sell it has. In fact, it officially went live for sale on the afternoon of Thursday, the 9th of November and by Tuesday, the 14th,...

So much like last month, October has been a busy month. We are nearly finished with getting the house ready for putting it up for sale and the hallway is pretty much finished now aside from lighting which we'll hopefully be putting up this weekend. If you checked out...

I'm a little late with my roundup of all the goings-on behind the scenes here at Swoon Worthy HQ for the last month but I hope you forgive me for that one! I've had a busy month with my brother visiting from the US who is using our home as a sort of 'base' to do a bit...

Wait. It's SEPTEMBER?! How the hell did that happen? To be fair, I have always kind of liked September - it's a much better 'new year' than cold, miserable January could ever be. I mean, we get to indulge in new stationary for one thing, we get to pull out all those...

I'm not entirely sure how it's happened but here we are at the end of July and summer is going by far too quick for my liking. To be fair, considering Manchester doesn't get the best weather in general, summer has been pretty kind to us. We've had lots of evenings...

A double dose of goodness here for you today as I failed to post my 'Something for the Weekend' in May and here we are at the end of June. Whoops. Nevermind, you'll just get double the value in a single post! 100% MORE ABSOLUTELY FREE. See? It sounds like a bargain...

Well, would you look at that. With a blink of the eye, April has come and gone and we're closing in on summer. I have to say, it does genuinely feel like Spring is here. My garden is bursting with life and the sun has been shining just a little more often. While the...

YOU GUYS. Oh my god, it's been a totally crazy month. In a good way, mind you, but crazy nonetheless. So first, I'll apologise for my lack of posts this past week as things have been a little busier than normal and neglecting my blog is the very last thing I like to...

Can you feel it? It's right there around the edges, hiding around that dusty dark cloud. Yes, yes, it's the sun. We may have just had Hurricane Doris blow through but I just know - I KNOW - that Spring is nearly here. The sun is higher, the days are longer and my god,...

Well just like that, we're at the end of January! Does Christmas seem like it was a million years ago to you too? Well, it was my birthday yesterday (well in a couple days as I'm writing this so it feels weird talking about it in past tense!) and we're off to London...

Hello my lovelies. Goodness, here we are, less than a week until Christmas and I'm wondering where the heck the year went! I'm sure it's a sign of getting older but it really seems to fly by faster and faster with each passing year. I'm sure I just watched Elf like 2...

Well, here we are and it's the end of October! How has your autumn been so far? Summer seemed to lull me into a state of comfortable bliss and then the Autumn began and things just always go a bit mental until the run up to the new year. I've been busy working away on...

Well here we are, end of September and rushing towards winter and Christmas and that whole crazy season at some speed. I'm trying to make the most of autumn at the moment. I have a very love/hate relationship with winter and the cold rainy miserable-ness it brings. I...

Ahhh so summer is finally coming to an end. And yes, I'm a bit sad about that. I truly love Spring and Summer - I love the warmer temperatures and the sunshine (why in the world are you in England, I hear you ask - I know, I know.) But I do love the Autumn - knee high...
