There is always a danger to deciding to make plans – and that tends to be for me that I automatically rebel and stop working to them 🙄 I think this is probably a behaviour I should have outgrown by now. Anyway, we did an Art.etc day with added Beans which was really lovely. I […]
Lists
Dammit, I’m so far behind and I’ve got photos of things to take as well. In fact, I’m so far behind that I might need my friends to remind me where I’ve been or I’ll forget what I’ve forgotten. Amelie & Fran’s comp. Fran’s comp. Maddy’s TKD successes. Josie’s wobble Josie’s birthday and party. Art […]
Telepathy & Pixies
Dear Freddie, Seven months. More than half a year. Most of the time I was pregnant with you. Seven long and lonely months learning to live with the feeling of you not in my arms. I’ve spent so much of this month thinking of the link you and I shared and of all the times […]
Josie is a Star!
Well, okay, I was supposed to upload a picture of me; but really Josie the Titchy Witch is much more fun to look at anyway and if anyone needs their own laptop in this house, it’s Josie. After all, a girl has Penguins to play with and there is precious little time for doing so […]
The Day of the Dead
It seems amazing, incredible, prophetic and deeply ironic that last year, on this date, I added my little egg in a basket to my blog header and announced my pregnancy. It was just Halloween then, though I was reading some books that were showing me a way of thinking of this time of year as […]
Keeping Busy Craftily
A side effect of this week being busier was that I got less knitting done, but I’m pleased with what I’ve achieved through the week overall. I managed two squares last week but only one this week, the red, orange and yellow one. Annoyed by my failure with tension down the middle of it though. […]
Wishing for nothing
A few days I caught myself imagining being given £1million a month for life. I realised, with horror really, that it couldn’t make me happier than I am. This is not a bad thing, because aside from tragedy, I think I actually am happy. Roughly £2K a month might take the pressure off financially, but […]
Day of Reckoning
I sincerely hope, when the day comes when someone asks my daughters what they most remember about me, they will remember the mummy who made cloaks for them more than they remember the ‘in a minute’ mummy who was often working and often crying. So this was my creativity today; not only making two cloaks […]
I'd love to remember last week but I can't
I do know I haven’t blogged the gym comp yet, so must do that at some point. And last week did include a history day, which I have photos for, so will do separately too. I’ll start from Saturday then. It was a cold horrible day and I hated most of it. Max went out […]
Largely wordless
In common with many of those in my dead baby mama community, a community I value but so wish I were not part of, I find myself largely wordless this month. I wonder if October just does that; the cold, the sense of death, the bleakness. Any hope of life being sustained, of a miracle […]
