How is January almost over? It feels like it’s gone by in a blur of sleep deprivation, to be honest. Christmas seems like a long time ago! It’s definitely been a period of adjustment for our family, as we’ve gone from a family of three to a family of four ๐ I last wrote…

Frugal Baby #2
Just a quick post to say that Frugal Baby #2 arrived quite abruptly earlier in the week, so we’re now a family of four ๐ It has been a tricky start so Frugal Baby and I are still in hospital but hoping to go home as soon as we can, once medically stable. …
Life Update #15
Is it just me who thinks it’s a bit scary that November is almost over? I feel like it has gone by in a blink of an eye. It’s nearly due date month! Eek! When I last wrote a Life Update post in October, I was 28 weeks pregnant. I’m now 35 week so…
The Reverse Advent Calendar Food Bank Challenge
I have written about food banks before, and how it’s so important to try and support your local one if you can. At this time of year, especially for families, they begin to feel the pinch. The requests for presents. The latest gadgets and toys. And suddenly, there’s no money for everything. And no one…
Life Update #14
The last time I did a Life Update post was early August, so I thought it was about time I did another! In the last one, I talked about Frugal Baby turning 2 and finding out that Frugal Baby #2 is also a boy ๐ I’m now 28 weeks pregnant, so time is flying…
Life Update #13
We’ve had such a lovely week this week here at Frugal Cottage HQ, I thought I would do another Life Update. I don’t regularly do more personal posts, as I’m not entirely sure that’s what people want to come and read? Firstly, Frugal Baby turned 2 this week! We had a little party at…
I’ve Got Something To Tell You…
You might have noticed that posts have become a little less frequent here of late, plus I have been changing aims and focus a bit. Of course, early retirement and creating passive income is always going to be the main aim around here. However, some things might make the path slightly more bumpy! After…
Life Update #12
Another Life Update! I thought I’d do more of a chatty post today, as I rarely do these on here. I am going to be really British though – how hot is it?! I’m so not a fan of heat. I hate being too hot ๐ plus Frugal Baby is not enjoying it either. His…
Life Update #11
I haven’t done a Life Update since the start of January, so I thought I would do another and update you on things here at Frugal Cottage HQ. I’ll be completely honest, I feel a bit despondent about things lately. It feels like there are not enough hours in the day and I am…
Life Update #10
It’s been quite a while since I’ve done a life update on here, so I thought I would do a little ramblings on what is happening here at The Frugal Cottage HQ. I don’t know about anyone else, but I am struggling with motivation at the moment. I can’t quite put my finger on…
