This weekend has been crazy, crazy busy with Remembrance Sunday and football matches and a podcast planning day with my older daughters. Both my son and daughter were part of the Remembrance Sunday march. Unfortunately, they were in different towns so we were only able to support one of them (due to Bec’s football match……

Edexcel English IGCSE Exam
Last week I chatted a bit about the importance of knowing what the English Language IGCSE specification expects from each student. This week I will be focusing on the actual Edexcel English IGCSE Exam. Knowing how the Edexcel English IGCSE Exam is set out means there will be no nasty surprises when your child takes……
Update on my (now much older) Angelicscalliwags!
I thought I’d do a quick update my three older offspring. Thomas Thomas is currently working with his dad on the golf course, whilst awaiting an opening with the Fire Brigade. They only recruit once a year and Thomas did get accepted onto their program. However, they cancelled everyone (something to do with their human……
Happy Birthday to my Precious Girls!
Happy birthday to my twin girls who are 22 today! I love you both so very much and it has been a pleasure being your mum. Have the day of your dreams girls xxx
Starting an Art Business in my Fifties
I promise I will be talking about starting an art business in my fifties but first I’d like a little space to process aging. I turned fifty in September. Fifty…as in five-zero! Can somebody explain to me the mechanics of time, because I remember being a child like it was yesterday; I can conjure up……
A Week in the Life of a Small Business Owner
Just a quick post today to say I have a new vlog up on YouTube. In it, I am preparing for my summer launch, so you can have a sneak peak at my two latest paintings and all the products I am making using them. I also have a long overdue (and brutally honest) chat……
Angelicscalliwags Rag #12
It seems like a very long time since I wrote updating you on all the family. Much has happened. I think I’ll start with the youngest and move through to the oldest (that would be me 😢 ). I’ve been really remiss getting photos. I feel like I’m perhaps juggling one too many balls… Becca……
Candle-Making at Home For Beginners
Gary and the children were out at a barn dance, which Gary was playing in a band for. The absence of Gary as a dance partner, my innate introversion and the fact that the house was sitting quiet, cosy and most importantly empty, gave me the impetus to turn down the barn dance for a……
How to Make Stickers at Home
If you’ve ever wondered how to make stickers at home, this is the post for you… well, actually, this is the video for you! Whilst I realise it might be counter productive of me to make a video showing you how to make stickers, given that I sell stickers, it’s such a wonderfully fun thing……
Scrawlrbox Unboxing
It’s funny how when one steps away from one’s blog, how difficult it is to come back to it. I’ve had an essay due for my master’s which has taken up every last bit of energy I have. I’m doing okay with my YouTube videos, I think in part because I find them so relaxing……
Angelicscalliwags Rag #11
We’ve been enjoying the Easter holidays here at angelicscalliwags. I’m undecided about whether we head back to school next week or take the entire week off. The girls have so many social activities planned I’m not sure it will be worth going back for the small amount of spare time they have! Anyway, this is……
Loved Beyond Measure
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UFiyEFmIXvA There’s a kind of Love that God only knows… “This is how much God loved the world: He gave his Son, his one and only Son. And this is why: so that no one need be destroyed; by believing in him, anyone can have a whole and lasting life.” John 3:16 Happy Easter Sunday……
Angelicscalliwags Rag #10
I am so enjoying not being in February! The sun is shining, the mornings are light and my va va voom has returned! I’m not sure why February affects me so much. It is like a wreaking ball through my life each year. Taking a swing, knocking me off kilter for approximately four weeks. Fortunately,……
Angelicscalliwags Rag #09
I’m late again in posting this. Apologies but between going away, Ads’ 21st birthday and studying for a masters, I just don’t seem to have much time on my hands. I need to improve my efficiency! Hopefully, the murder mystery photos will make up for it! Books Read I finished Oliver Sacks’ autobiography, On the……
