SHE is FLYing

SHE stands for Sidetracked Home Executive. I used to have an organised home, now I have a husband and kids my organisational skills seem to have left and I get sidetracked a lot. FLY stands for Finally Loving Yourself. So, this SHE is FLYing - well, I try to, but keep getting sidetracked with Crafts and Creative stuff.

About Me

Nicolette: Hi, my name is Nicolette. I am a happily married, Stay at Home Mum of 2 gorgeous children. Our son was born in 2006 and our daughter in 2008. I also work from home as a genealogist. I was born and raised in the Netherlands, but moved to the UK in 2002 for work. I have since been made redundant, had various other jobs and redundancies until May 2005. My husband and I got married in June 2005 and 2 months later discovered we were expecting our first child. At that stage I did not see a point in trying to get another job, as no employer will hire a pregnant lady, law or no law. So here I am, a Stay At Home Mum. Since becoming a Mum organising the family and house has become a challenge. I used to be very organised and had everything just like I wanted it, but start living with another adult and add some children to the mix and it all becomes a totally different ball game. Hence the Sidetracked Home Executive or SHE for short.
