My Spanish Vida

This product was gifted in return for an honest review ............................. When Buzzcloth recently got in touch with me saying they'd like me to review their product I was over the moon and so keen to find out more about it. This particular blogging assignment really caught my eye as I'm becoming more and more aware about the dangers plastic is having on our environment. Which I think a lot of us are aren't we. I have always tried to do my bit with recycling and always use my bags for life when doing the groceries, but that's as far as it's gone really. With all the recent press about plastic in the sea and harming our sealife it's time for us all to up our game and really start changing our plastic habits for good. This is why Buzzcloth appealed to me. I was really intrigued to find out more about how this 'cloth' could help reduce our plastic use in our everyday life.

Yesterday I posted this picture on my Instagram stories.  Me lazying by the pool enjoying the Spanish sun in complete relaxation. So you'd probably think.

On the other hand though, because I am living in the sun, a stay at home cat mumma and housewife doesn't mean I can't feel bored and lonely at times. I just wanted to explain more behind the Insta story I posted, as things aren't always

Every now and then for some reason I come to a bit of a bump in the road with my blog and I never really know why. I have a break, tweak it here and there and then set off again. But nothing really changes and I then find myself at the same bump in the road again. I saw this quote the other day, which I have seen before, but I have never really digested it properly. It made me really think about my blog and literally 'why did I start my blog?' 'Remember why you started'.  I've mentioned many times before that I started my blog as I was looking for a free hobby while Mark was at work.  At the time we had a joint Facebook page (which I've recently just made mine lol as Mark wasn't really using it anymore he's more about LinkedIn and it was just getting confusing being the both of us on there).  Anyway, I wanted somewhere where I could share my everyday goings on, fashion and beauty I was into at the time, our cats, our holidays an
