Wait, am I getting her mixed up with someone but didn’t she say at the start of the year (on her biz page) she’d been invited to a friends boat? Or was it to a friends house?
I’m sure there was something she’d been invited to. Either way, she didn’t sell the boat to me. She was too gushy and touching EVERYTHING. But the wood and the doors squeaked so loudly, it was awful like nails on a chalkboard to me and no way you could move or open anything with the children asleep as it was like a varnished wood squeak/scraping noise
Here it is
Today I had a call from one of my clients, talking me through what he would like on their socials for the next two weeks on the lead up to Christmas.
He then told me all about the exciting plans they have for 2023 and what they would like me to do, and there I am dutifully writing it all down making sure I don’t miss a thing…
…”oh and one more thing….”
(This made me freeze and think oh gosh what have I done wrong

“We would really like to invite you and your family down to Cornwall, to come and stay with us and let us host you for the weekend, just as a thank you for all you’ve done for us…”
I didn’t even know what to say, I really didn’t and to be honest I was a bit taken a back by it. Now, firstly I don’t expect anything (other than to be paid obvs lol) but I do not expect anything at all for the services that I provide.
This isn’t why I set up my business, I set up my business to provide a friendly, reliable, trustworthy service to clients to enable them to focus on their business and let me take the reigns when it comes to their social media…. but what I didn’t expect was to create an incredible network of friends who really have made what I do (bold statement) the best job I’ve ever had (minus being a Mummy obvs)
I just wanted to say a heartfelt thanks, not only for the super kind and generous gesture made above, but to all of my clients who support me, who check in and ask how my weekend has been, who say thank you, who invite me to amazing events and introduce me as part of their business. Who recommend me, who tag me in posts….
This has been a WHIRLWIND, and my feet have not touched the floor, and while I last on minimal sleep and maximum coffee working 60+ hours a week, I wouldn’t change it for the world.
I am unbelievably thankful, grateful and very humbled by it all (not crying)
I’ll do a proper Christmas post soon but I just felt the need to say a proper big, sparkly thank you!
