Dreams are never free

September 29, 2010 by

I’ve been a bit off blogging about the endless, wearying aftermath of trying to come to terms with life through a new lens. Various things caused it but the effect of it has been bad; if I don’t write it down, it washes around my head and causes me pain. In the same way my […]

Damn. I’m all behind again. We’ve had a good few weeks anyway; the homework diaries work really well still.

Creative every day

September 10, 2010 by

We’ve had a really tough week, more disappointment for us and other people I care about, difficult stuff at work and a week of the younger three girls playing SCBU and Labour Ward games with PlayMobil. They’ve been clearly testing me, checking to see how well I cope with their subject matter and it has […]

February in Brief

February 16, 2010 by

Oh dear. Lack of energy and inclination is going to reduce the first half of Feb to what i can remember from Brightkite and Facebook updates. 😆 I shall have to download my camera too and see what i find on there. February started with the launch of a new website for the business, known […]

Christmas 2009

December 29, 2009 by

We’ve had a lovely and very relaxing few Christmas days; it feels slightly odd this year as the business was so much more organised that there wasn’t quite the “phew, it’s over!!!” feeling of past years, but it was much nicer for it. Max finished on 23rd and came home to a tidy and festive […]
