I’m not going to link, because it will just provoke something that I don’t want it to – and anyway, I agree with the sentiment of the original poster, just not really with what read as a slightly unforgiving commenter afterwards. Yet again, I’ve ended up really hurt and cross because of the “you need […]
Continuing on a theme…
We’ve possibly been having a mini-half term here – we’ll probably have one next week too, so perhaps we’re a private school 😉 Yesterday we had S and P here for the day; all the kids did some stuff round the table in the morning, some mathletics and mine did music and they played for […]
I just wanna be okay, be okay…
Actually, I hate that advert. Too many pregnant women and daddy’s nestling their babies. But I like the song. Yesterday there was a loud knock at the door, I answered and it was the lady collecting electoral roll data. Naturally this year i really haven’t got round to filling that out. (This is blatant hiding […]
Yesterday was mostly good
I don’t have photos. (I will take some!) However, after a morning of normals while I did a few work related jobs and the girls occupied themselves sensibly, getting on with things from their lists. Amelie and Josie then went back to a game they’ve been playing for a while; Amelie was “not well”, coughing […]
Be happy at Burghley – mission not entirely impossible?
I’m supposed to be finding things every day that I’m happy or pleased about at the end of it. This isn’t easy, mainly because I don’t seem to have the energy to create much movement at all and partly because being happy, being pleased and living has a measure of guilt attached, which is hard […]
Less a round up, more a brain dump.
I’m not even going to try. I can’t remember what we’ve done. Nothing so important that it really needs showing off about any way. These days the boring stuff gets recorded in diaries so I don’t have to blog it; we’ve not done anything worky that has been earth shattering anyway. Probably the best has […]
I've run out of words
There are so many I could say but really, what’s the point? I’ve never felt so helpless in all my life. There doesn’t seem to be a single place in any aspect of anything where I can force or provoke a change that would make any of it better. I can’t help my children to […]
International Baby Loss Day
Today is International Baby Loss Awareness Day At 7pm people around the world will light candles to remember babies lost in all circumstances, at any age, during pregnancy, birth or after. Jess has read a list of baby names aloud at AfterIris. I’m incredibly grateful for the special effort she made for Freddie when he […]
Too many too many.
I’ve shared my online life with people for a long time – some are now as close as family to me and some I never imagined I’d have more in common with than a homebirth wish or a vbac wish. Three times now, people who hovered around the edges of those past lives have ended […]
Oh, to wear my heart on my sleeve
Six months ago today, our little boy died. 11 days was not enough. Twice in the last few days, people have, meaning to be kind given me their condolences and said “sorry to mention it, you must not want to think about it.” But I do. I think of ‘it’, of him, all the time. […]
