Aka. Today's achievement. Tally and my (not) first race together. Not? What are those brackets about? Well, tally and I ran our first race together (although I think we power walked it) when she...

again? really?

Having felt removed from this place for a couple of weeks I forced myself to write a few days ago and now the bloody floodgates have opened! I have conjunctivitis. I blame fly-lady. I don't do f...


And I can lounge for longer since it's half term and my first (and only) kid arrives at 8am. Yes, work is back on today but she's on a half day so I'll be finished by 1pm :-) and everyone adores ...

29th May

I really need to make a new box - we are no longer crawling into a new year! I keep wanting to write but feeling too fed up to do it. I keep looking at houses on the net but I'm not doing anythi...


WHERE: in the guest bed at my dad's house. The house I grew up in, lived in from 6 months old until 19 years old. I love seeing the fun my kids have here with all the space in the garden and the ...

May 18

It's been a weekend with a difference, but a good weekend. Rich works a 9-5 Mon-Fri job but this weekend he had to go in for a course for... well, I can't tell you because I'm not allowed to talk...

May 18.

I'm sure you've all been losing sleep in regards to the issue of the nits. As I'm sure you're all desperate to hear an update I shall create updateage. Well, Lila is still nit free, tally still ...

May 2014.

I have changed my profile picture - it is still my leg, but it truly depicts my entries now... And because I've been messing with apps I don't have time for my usual Friday morning entry ;-) Yo...

Nits Have Hit.

It's our first time, having little bugs crawling around our children's hair. We were head lice virgins up until now! Tally mentioned her insanely itchy head on Tuesday and begged me to get the ...

:-D

We have the loveliest post lady, she's called Mary and knows all the people on her route by name. She even asked me if the name that I receive my post in is the one I use daily I told her that I ...

missing

Please don't worry about me - my Friday morning entry is being usurped by the arrival of Under A Silent Moon, written by your friend, and mine, Elizabeth Haynes. Catch you on the flip side (wher...

hellooooo!

Nothing to say really, and not much time to say it... Another TA job had come up at the special needs school that's attached to my daughters' school. I want to go for it but something seems to ...

abc surveyage

As if my week could get any worse, this morning before my run I had to unblock the toilet using a rubber glove, some cling film (seran wrap you're stuff) and a spoon. The cling film was purely to...

more realistically.

This is a house I really like. It would mean not getting a larger mortgage, we also wouldn't be downsizing with the size of house - and the girls would love the garden! (Ours is very small). It h...

anyone else?

I'm not sure if it's the site or my phone - I sometimes get half way through writing a note when what I type doesn't show up the screen any more. That's a strong possibility that I have tried to ...


WHERE: in the bath... The water is just, slightly, too hot but the window is open to counteract any hot flushes that may give me (non hormonal, I hasten to add). WEARING: five heart shaped, very...

le sigh.

I want this house. http://www.ralphbending.com/properties/detail/stmichaels/index.html We could afford this house if we had local work with the same (very small) income that we have now. But t...

I nearby stand down...

My self titled title of non drinker must, from hence forth, be rescinded. The other week it was beer, this week it's cider. Well, I am in Somerset... We're having a fabulous time, we walked mi...

three hours...

...until the weekend. I can do this! I do have a family coming over later to discuss with me possibly looking after their boy from September. I do feel slightly bad since I'm hoping to no longer...

Holy crapoly!

You know how toddlers gradually become little people and you get used to it so slowly that you don't even realise that it had happened? I'm remembering that it happened! Libby isn't far off bei...

I ran

I did, really. Most of you know that I'm a plodder, but with dreams of running at the speeds I did in my twenties... Once a week I run a mile as fast as I can, just to see how fast that is (it's...

New blog entry

I haven't written in my sugar free blog in a while so anyone who may have been reading may not check it - just to let you know I've updated. http://threemonthssugarfree.blogspot.co.uk

what actually happened!

We had a good weekend. Hmmm, but where to start? Let's go with chronological? Friday. I finished work at five, and had packed up the car by then. I made up food for the girls to eat in the car a...


You know you've had a successfully relaxing weekend when you're on the verge of sleep all Monday... Lol. I'll be back to fill you in when my head stops its buzzing, my bones stop protesting and...


So, as I was saying.... I mean, the whole. Entire entry is. GONE!! THE WHOLE EFFING THING!! As I was trying to say, Rich and I are going to have a whole weekend of grown upness. A weekend away. ...
