I'm Mrs S, married to my wonderful Mr S, proud owner of a physco rescue cat who loves me, but not her daddy so much and working full time whilst dreaming of what I might do in my retirement. I spent my younger years travelling and living all over the world through my work and living for today without thinking what tomorrow might bring. I did this until I was in my late 30's when I decided it was time to come home and settle down. This I did with the lovely Mr S just before I hit 40. He made me the proud step Mum to 2 boys, who are now men, living their own lives with the lovely addition of 4 grandchildren for us to spoil!
So now, here I am, mid fifties, deep in menopause with a pipeline of dreams about not living pay cheque to pay cheque, having no debts, being financially stable, maybe having my own business(es), owning multiple properties globally and living the good life with the ability to help out my own family and others in need. I would also love to be more philanthropic than I can afford to be at the moment.
The Tea Cozy is the name I chose for a business that I want to start - a tea room on the coast I think. I also thought it was a great name for this blog as I am looking to create a monetary 'tea cozy' that wraps around me and my family to keep us warm and safe.
I have chosen to map out my journey of being a normal in debt Brit with no savings, a very small pension and a house still to be paid for to my dream of being able to live a comfortable life with few worries about how we can afford it all whilst trying to live and deal with my normal life of work, family, emergencies, travel and friends etc. Big dreams I can hear you say. Yes, they are, but I feel certain with the right amount of effort, I can make a difference to what my future looks like on paper at the moment - I just need to step out of my comfort zone and start trying things.
I will be sharing my personal stories, opinions, and experiences with you all. I aim to inspire and entertain by offering fresh and engaging content on a regular basis which resonates with my readers.
By reading The Tea Cozy, I hope to inspire you that you are never to old to learn new tricks and that some of the schemes I try to make additional money will also help you. There will be plenty of content on all sorts of topics from what I'm cooking that night to what has helped my pelvic floor to where I bought my holiday wardrobe to how my trading account is doing to potentially starting my own businesses. Stay tuned and you might be inspired to try some of these things out!
