Well, i don’t *really* know women like this, maybe its a bit judgemental too, but i like it further down so i thoguht i would put it here to recall it on bad days…. I know women who would lose their children like throwing off a robe, unbraiding a red ribbon and discarding it, to […]

I REALLY hate my bloody computer. As if the fact that neither cd-drive will boot a cd-rom not already installed on the computer, my USB ports have now gone down. Now all this might be a reasonably interesting connundrum for a techie – i mean, i can download things and run them, i can read […]

Highlight of the day was a trip to the garden centre… lol. Ah well, could be worse. Normally one of us dashes out with which ever child is most lacking in quality time but today we all went and actually, it was fun. It was nice weather here today so it was restful, the centre […]

Fran came home buzzing again, i’m ASTOUNDINGLY better, Fran finished StudyDog 2, Maddy did lots of StudyDog 1, Maddy and Ammi played beauifully all day. Josie wailed a lot. Oh yeah, Chris and Kirsty, questions ae coming!

April 6th is one of those dates which i can’t ever forget. On this day, 13 years ago now, my friend died in a truely horrible car accident, along with 3 of his other 17 year old friends. I’d known him all my teens, i knew his brothers equally well, we’d grown up in the […]
