Who’s child is it anyway?
It’s been one of those days. At 1pm today I was called by the school to advise me that the little one had a fall at break time (10.20am) Because she was still in pain at 1pm and her foot was bruised the receptionist asked that I collect her and take her to a &Continue reading “Who’s child is it anyway?”
Journaling
Shopping today my daughter and I spotted a very shiny new book in W h smiths. And as you can probably guess we couldn’t leave it behind. Turns out this note book is actually a journal (it did have a sticker and other details that made it clear it is a journal I was justContinue reading “Journaling”
New beginnings

Rekindling old friendships Spending quality time on myself And lastly finally getting my small business up and running. The last few months have been busy, trying to home school the little madam (I emphasis the trying, it’s not going all thatContinue reading “New beginnings”
Constraints!
How was your Christmas all? My brain has been in over drive once again. So constraints……….. There are so many constraints in life, time, money, emotions, family commitments, work, school, children, the list is endless. How do we live within these constraints and be happy with life? Time: you hear us all say it “there’sContinue reading “Constraints!”
Going Grey Gracefully!! Ummmm
Hair hair hair and more hair. As women we’re never happy with the hair we’re given (I’m talking about the hair on our heads). I’ve mentioned before that I’ve been going grey since the tender age of 18. I recently found out that this is because I have pernicious anemia. I do have injections toContinue reading “Going Grey Gracefully!! Ummmm”
Day 2!
Well I’m back at work for a few hours today. Not sure how much work I’m going to have to complete as there is very little to process. I have no motivation for anything today. I have a dentist appointment this afternoon (not looking forward to it) We had a really nice evening last nightContinue reading “Day 2!”
It Has Been A While
Well I’ve had lovely week or so off writing. I have seen my family, been on holiday and just generally been relaxing.

One of Those Days (rolls eye’s)
Do you ever just have one of those days where everyone around you just annoys the hell out of you? They don’t have to specifically do anything wrong, they are just annoying. I’m having one of those days and my work colleagues are driving me insane. It’s taking all my resolve to keep polite andContinue reading “One of Those Days (rolls eye’s)”
Child constantly looks like she’s been dragged through a hedge backwards.
I love my daughter dearly and I wouldn’t change her for the world, however I always have this issue with her that no matter what I dress her in or how I do her hair, within 10 minutes in fact before we’ve even get out of the front door she just looks like she’s beenContinue reading “Child constantly looks like she’s been dragged through a hedge backwards.”
Control
Why is it some people tend to like to control other people? I’m a control freak but while there are some things I would love to change about people I wouldn’t say I try to control anyone (I’m too busy trying to control my own life) My boss for example, I recently requested a changeContinue reading “Control”
Fashion For Mums
No, this is not a post giving fashion advice, its just me again. I like to think I dress well (I may not and I’m living in a dream world) but I often look at other women and admire their dress sense. I consider trying out something similar and then I chicken out of doingContinue reading “Fashion For Mums”
F*@king Dress Up Days!

Bobbles! Grrrrr
This seems a very silly subject to write on but its something that frustrates me every single day. Bobbles, where the hell do they go? where do they hide? It feels like there is a conspiracy against me with hair bobbles in our house. Now I do wear hair bobbles myself and I currently haveContinue reading “Bobbles! Grrrrr”

Men and “Girl”-Friends
Omg my daughter yesterday morning, Saturdays she has gym now it doesn’t start until 11am so we still have plenty of time to get ready. Or at least you’d think we have.

Telling It As It Is!! Or Do We?
Well yesterday didn’t go as planned, I did finish work at 1pm but I went home and crashed out on the sofa. I was so exhausted that I just needed that hours rest before picking up my daughter and putting my mum hat back on. It was quite nice because the Mr had finished workContinue reading “Telling It As It Is!! Or Do We?”
