Cambridge Trip & Build a Bear

November 6, 2012 by

Halloween day time was spent in Cambridge this year waiting for Max to have his eyes lasered, a suitably (in my head) gruesome activity for Halloween. We had a very nice day there in fact, and did various things I want to blog as they were great, but I can just give you a taster […]

Eye'll think about it.

November 4, 2012 by

Here is what Max wrote up about his laser eye surgery consultation. Yes, he’s done now, but this was very much part of the process so forgive us for being a bit behind. It’s been a hell of a few weeks! I’m mildly relieved to discover that he gave it as little thought as I […]

Today

October 31, 2012 by

Today was a remarkable day, one of those days where there is an 'everything before' and 'everything after'. As a refreshing change, it was a good thing. A great thing. We changed Max's life for the better. It was a bit scary, but we did it. Neither of us can take the grin off our […]

The eyes have it.

October 29, 2012 by

Sometimes an opportunity in the blogging world comes along that is too good to miss; I didn’t entirely expect it to be this though, nor did I expect that it would be Max who got the life changing moment! But when your husband is so shortsighted he only knows it is you asleep in bed […]

If only my computer were organised like my Pinterest account.

October 24, 2012 by

Way back in 2004 or 5, I sold a software Hama Bead Design programme that was, for a while, a very hot seller. It is the one I still use to make the simpler Hama Bead designs we put on the sites to give people ideas. Most of my friends had a copy and I […]

Not Finished it by Friday Winter Edition.

October 19, 2012 by

So far i have knitted a lot of baby blankets, a cardigan for a child who doesn’t wear it, a cardigan for a baby who outgrew it plus two that did get some wear and…. some hats. Which were too big or too small remarkably quickly. I thought it was time I knitted something for […]

A typical home ed day in photos

October 19, 2012 by

This is long overdue; I promised to open this meme ages ago – but life gets in the way. Every year home educators with blogs do a meme where the tell a ‘not very typical because what days are?) typical home education day in their house. Our days recently have been fairly humdrum but here […]

How my children see me meme

October 17, 2012 by

Dear Sian and Tara, One day I will introduce my children to you and they will describe to you in graphic detail how glad they were to be torn away from the geography to do these drawings. All I can tell you was I never knew how much they liked geography. This is how my […]

Imagining life in ten years time.

October 16, 2012 by

It was only after Bene was safely home from hospital and had been here for a few weeks, taken a few trips in the car, been out to visit places once or twice, that Max and I really started to consider the logistics of life with 5 children in the house. I mean, we had […]
