It’s not often I delete a half written post, but I just have. I wanted to write something meaningful about the coverage of the 9/11 anniversary this weekend, but honestly I don’t have the stomach for it. Maybe I’d just end up adding to the one thing I find so difficult about our world wide […]
Dreams : One : Two : Three
We forgot to go to Freddie’s funeral. We were busy, the girls were alive and needed us and life goes on and… oh my word, it was today and we forgot. Max was okay with it; after all, it was just a procedure, he didn’t need us there, the girls needed us. It was just […]
Camping it up.
I could start this post by saying we are confirmed campers. When I think about it though, I haven’t actually had a proper tent holiday since before I was pregnant with Freddie. I can’t even pinpoint it now. Maybe the Summer before but I think not, so probably even the summer before that. If it […]
Dear So and So… the Annoying Research edition.
Be gentle with me. This is my first attempt at Dear So and So. I need to get some things off my chest. And yes, I know most of my irritation probably stems from crappy BBC reporting. Humour me. Working Mothers do no Harm to Children. Do you know how much it irritates me to […]
The overdue CyberMummy Part 2
I should have written this ages ago but it has been a funny old month and practically as soon as I came home from the blogging conference, the very last thing I had the energy to do was blog. In fact, I’ve barely opened my laptop for weeks; I can keep in touch on my […]
All a bit complicated
There are a lot of things in this post. Some reasons to chatter and some reasons why I haven’t been doing so much of that too. Sometimes the only way forward is to tumble it out and let anyone who wants to sift the melting pot. There is the large and the small tucked into […]
Pondering home educating nearly 10 years in.
It annoys me that I’m not doing a good old inspiring home ed blog any more. I do try but more and more the girls just get on and do stuff, not very visual or exciting stuff, not stuff that warrants dramatic blog posts. more and more, this blog has become about me, or just […]
What I thought of CyberMummy – Part One
I spent the weekend at a blogging conference/networking/marketing event – called CyberMummy. Despite the alarming title, it probably should assure you I have not come home made of aluminium, with my brains sucked out and vomit on my shoulder. On the other hand, I do wonder if when it was originally given it’s name, it […]
Admitting Small Elements of Defeat to Stay Standing
It??s been a rough week. The kids are all unwell and have been, in varying combinations, since last Thursday. Fran came down with another sore throat and got progressively worse all weekend; despite having a friend on sleep over, she needed all the pain killers going to keep her upright, so on Monday I took […]
Garden & Allotment Stuff
This last week or so has been a flurry of visitors, visiting and being places. The bank holidays – and with them the end of April and the passing of all ‘those’ dates have flown by. I think they are not really the same for us, given in the Spring and Summer we can please […]
