Welcome to ‘The List‘, which is a great linky that I co-host with amaze-balls Hannah from Mums’ Days. The idea is simple, just link up any post that is in list/bullet point format, easy! (a few bullet points in a post is fine too!). I use mine to record my weekly highlights, but yours could be a ‘top ten’ list or anything you fancy. Posts can be old or new, all welcome.
This week I am linking 15 Ways to Avoid Blogger Burnout and Before I had a Husband. Hannah is sharing Garden ideas and Healthy Drinks.
We are also linking How to set killer blog goals from our collaborative blog Live. Love. Blog.
My favourite posts from last week were;

6 Steps to stress-free mealtimes is brilliant! Such fabulous advice.
Janette’s post on why she is not a blight on society is such a powerful read.
Claire’s post on the 12 things she has learnt during her kid’s first year at school is so funny.
Now time for my list;
REAL LIFE
- Baby went to her first film premiere (ours too!).
- We started decluttering our house.
- I have been reading a book, an actual book (not anything to do with blogging!) Momentous!
- I started my new weight loss plan (more soon).
BLOG & SOCIAL MEDIA
- I have been working hard to get ahead, so I can relax and enjoy Camp Bestival.
- The best post I read this week: This corker from Tim over at Slouching Towards Thatcham, an open letter to Brands/PRs.
- My most popular blog post this week was; Apart from my giveaways, How to strike gold in your worklife balance and 15 Ways to Avoid Blogger Burnout.
- My own favourite post this week was; I really enjoyed writing 15 Ways to Avoid Blogger Burnout
- New blog discovery: Lizzie’s lovely blog Marmalade Pie, go and have a read.
- Reviews I have shared: Jack and the Beanstalk book, Tiger Stores
So you know what do to, grab the badge and link up your lists. I can’t wait to have a read!

Hope Baby enjoyed her first film premiere! Thanks for hosting #TheList
loved the pics of baby on the blue carpet even though she was a bit bemused. What book are you reading? Are you sure it’s not about Pinterest or Google plus or something, are you feeling ok?! xxx

Thanks darling, she was so tired and then her mind was a little blown. It’s chick lit by one of my fav authors Paige Toon. I am so sad and don’t read any REAL books, not very sophisticated in my reading tastes 🙂 xxx
Ooh reading an actual book – must be nice 🙂 Yay for baby’s first movie and also good luck on that new weight loss program 🙂

Decluttering is the best – when it’s done. The process is not fun times 😉 It’s great to be back to #TheList – thanks so much for hosting x

Thank you SO much for the mention – I’m so flattered! I too have been trying to declutter this week – I think it’s the realisation that we’re days away from the school summer holidays that has finally pushed me into action! I’m linking up for the first time – looking forward to having a good read later on! x

Oooh how exciting for you and baby re: the Thomas premiere, maybe the first of many? All fancy off to premieres, I bet you had a ball 🙂
We are also decluttering, it is SO therapeutic!

I also enjoyed Tim’s post, as always it was very interesting.
Have a blast at Camp Bestival, looking forward to reading about it in the months to come

I loved Tim’s post too. There were so many learning points for PR people. I’m looking forward to your Burnout post – I’m feeling a tiny bit of that trying to prepare for my hols. There’s not enough hours in the day so I think I’m going to need your tips!! Have fun at Camp Bestival x
