Our story starts on sunny summer many years ago. As a family we love the beach and holidays but it never quite seemed enough. After one holiday, after packing, un-packing, organising time off, saving and getting us all there. We got to spend one week a year doing what makes us happy. After we got back we joked we needed another holiday. After a wind down wine my partner Mike and We started dreaming about how we could swap rented walls for floating home. Mad idea!!! 

This was 8 years ago. Since then life has changed a lot. We ended up having twin boys in 2020. We then found out they had Autism and our future and life turned on is head. We now also have our wonderful niece and all our own children to factor into a future that looks very different.

now we are cares for our twins. I have been slowly building an online business to hopefully support us and bring in money so I can save for our future. We ended up moving into private rented accommodation 2 years ago so that the we could safely house our family. Unfortunately once we had saved to move Into private rented the landlord sold the property we were given a section 21 no fault eviction and had to move again. So with all these things our plans got put on hold we now live near the beach and are used love of boats has become more prevalent. Our aim is now to buy a small boat and teach and nurture the twins to gain new skills and valuable safety in a hands on fashion. Allowing time for understanding and skill to grow. We hope to be able to reach a point where the business saves for the future and the boat knowledge and life skills learned will be invaluable as the boys grow. This may mean we don’t get the dream we first had before the boys came along but it would be a step in the right direction for many other reasons. This is why we hope at the very least we will be able to save through the profits of the business. Fingers crossed we make small sales towards our goals. Trying is the hardest part.

This is what made me think about online lessons in my futur. So many things to accomplish and we are only at the very tip of the beginning. Our dream seems so far away it breaks my heart, but we will just keep swimming. 

To do any of our dreams  we need money. It apparently really does make the world go round. So this website is to document the highs and lows of us eventually reaching some of our goals. Dream big and pay it forward is our moto.

Do you sell handmade, creative, products? Do you want a bit of free advertising?

We are to create advertising space. You send us your advert, picture of your product and a bit about your story. We had your advert, pic and links to an advertising pages within this website. This all helps us to pay it forward and to get both our names and yours out there along the way.

CRAZY for me to think this might become a nice supportive space.

So hear we are. The website is up. The aim and feel to the pages introduced. Honest content. I am no influencer or big buisness woman. I am just a mum and a partner trying to build something different for my children. COVID made me realise this more than ever. In the UK we were locked down for practicly 2 year plus. I was heavily pregnant with twins. (That's were the boat deposit went the first time) I was so scared and we started to focuse on what we wanted out of life. I want to love the UK again. I want to show my children the world through a unique lense. With the cost of living crippling us we have decided enough is enough. So the journey to the Stubborn Glitch (eventual boat name we hope) was born. Wish us luck better yet join us to follow how far we get in this mad pipe dream of ours. It could take years but then I am a Stubborn Glitch. (Bad play on words extra with each blog 😁
