My house is clean and tidy from top to bottom and i hardly did any of it. Gosh that makes me feel so good 🙂 I love Lucy 🙂 I am just SO much less stressed now, it makes such a difference. There is just a layer of general crud being slowly lifted away from […]

Is how it was today, ironic really as i wasv forced to make a dentist appt to have my root canal tooth looked at, as the back has snapped at the gum line and currently flaps about at anything up to 90 degrees from the rest of my tooth. Yum 🙁 Dunno what went wrong […]

One of the first things that happened today was a text from my mum to ask me if i had heard the AB of C’s thoughts on childhood; she followed it up by telling me how proud she was of me for protecting and valuing my childrens childhood (or that was the gist anyway.) I […]

2 bits of good news – of which the first is that my friend has had a scan which hasn’t shown up anything untoward, which tells nothing much in itself but does mean that she has something positive to hold on to for the next few weeks which they wait for screening tests to come […]

Involved another trip to Ikea 🙄 But i think we have every storage solution going now… Involved a lot of tidying, sorting, parcel packing and organising.

Oh well, friendly rivalry and all that. She got the hang of vertical multiplication pretty easily anyway […]

On Monday i sourced a load of ridiculously cheap small boxes; it was only an extra £1 to get another 50 and i’m ever so glad i did because not only are they the perfect size for a very typical and difficult to pack regular order, but they also make the perfect box to divide […]

So who is going to do Nanowrimo with me this year? 🙂 I’ve got something in mind for myself, of a sort of mock “Cider with Rosie” type thing. Anyone recommend any other similar books i could read to get myself in the mood?

Our desktop was fine this morning, then i went in and found it completely dead. I managed to get it as far as the first dos screen once, but now i can either get no response from the on button at all or all that happens is a bit of whirring and then a flicker […]

One leg over the side of her cot. Bother. Nice day today; i got up to find that Fran had already done some blogging and they were all happily bwading away. Deteriorated briefly into shouting about mess and ignoring me, then we went out and picked up the pottery (Alison, they are lovely!) and on […]
