the brixton housewife

…not the stereotypical picture

HOME

Welcome to my home!

Here you’ll find my posts on pretty much anything to do with being a 30 something mother living in London.

I’ve been on such a journey since starting this blog a couple of years ago.  From getting married, becoming a mother, starting my blog, performing at the Olympics, changing jobs, starting new businesses to getting divorced, becoming a single mother, moving home, and writing my first book.

One thing that has remained constant is the joy I get from writing and the conversations that follow! So thank you for taking the time to visit my blog!

Host duties over, time to take a tour, so pour a glass, make yourself comfortable and feel free to nose around.

Love BHW

    Man, I love the design of your blog. I personally love this theme, and you did it justice by making it accessible and functional 🙂 Anyway, I read some of your posts. It’s amazing. Along with the design of the blog, it’s like I’m reading an online magazine y’know? Haha maybe one day you can try releasing booklets or magazines for your longer articles and all. It’ll be really cool. Will be looking forward to more 🙂

    Sorry in the delay in responding to you, I have been a little busy with work at the moment and so have been a neglectful mother to my blog 🙂

    First of all, thank you so much mentioning me in your blog post, that’s so kind of you! I will be sure to take a look! Secondly, the project sounds really exciting and I would love to be involved! Work is still a bit manic at the moment, but we are coming up to half term so I will definitely get up to speed over the next week!! 🙂 Thank you so much for including me and I’m very excited!! xxBH
