*Shriek* Just unpacked an 8 box delivery and i’m snowed under. I’ve got 30 parcels to pack back up and all the new lines to list. Feeling quite energised by business; Xmas always a good time to get motivated 🙂 Wanted to say will do a “£1 off per kit over costing £9.50” offer for […]

Research into what people do in coffee shops concludes… people go in, order a cup of coffee, drink it and leave. Well worth that £140,000 then 🙄

Poor Josie has had a rotten few days; having had a restless night on Wednesday and been as miserable as sin on Thursday morning at Tammy’s, she had mutated into a screaming, heartbroken monster by the time Barbara arrived. And she screamed, through Calpol and Nurofen, refusing boob or bottle or any food, or indeed […]

Probably signing off for a day or two now. Ammi and Josie were up half the night so a slow and disorganised start to the day *sigh* Have just spent the morning with Tammy and the “naturally exuberant” Sam 😉 Do love that boy. Girls all thoroughly enjoyed the various science experiements Tammy had laid […]

You see, Orgo Planning is good for me 🙂 Although i do seem to have failed on the Amelie front a bit; still there’s always next week to rescue that relationship 😉 In fact, i’m so pleased with my list-itis, that i have awarded myself a whole new PoP Badge 😉 *Chp 2 and 3 […]

Title only applicable to me really. This song by James Blunt brought me up short today, in a moment i had no right to be even having. I’m putting it here to remind myself of myself. Have just finished reading a chapter of The Horse and His Boy that i really love, one where Shasta […]

Most nights i have to drive to the Sorting Office in the early evening. Living where we do, this mainly means a drive through middle class surburbia of a 1930’s sort – and perfectly nice it is too. Except at this time of year. For reasons only known to the perpetrators, during the months of […]

We’ve had visitors 🙂 Joanna has been over with her two, which was delightful. Didn’t get enough time to talk to Joanna, mainly because i had also invited the Beans to gatecrash but all the kids had a lovely time – and so did we. Great fun. Look on the Beans site for photos 🙂 […]

Must blog, if only because it has been so pleasantly mundane! I do feel like we are in a particularly enjoyable phase of family life right now, even boring stuff (in comparion to our busy summer) is just feeling very ‘right’. So, high points were: *Sitting at the table with Fran yesterday morning, while i […]
