I prefer the term childlike to childish, it had a more mature ring to it. To me I'm me. Determined, understanding with a little bit of a temper. I'm married and have children. I also have a brother and two sisters, I work in a school with various kids who need a little extra help, one way or another. And to all those people I imagine that I'm someone slightly different, depending on their needs. Once you read me I will become, to you, who you need me to be.

Huh. in Hot town, summery in the city - 2017
I’ve been quiet for a while. No real reason except maybe it’s tough to do all the socials and I’ve upped my Insta nail account usage to try to get more ‘engagement’. Anywho. Firstly, I was headh...
The survey of 2022. in Hot town, summery in the city - 2017

29th Nojovember. in Hot town, summery in the city - 2017

24th Nojovember. School refusal in Hot town, summery in the city - 2017
The thing about the phrase ‘school refusal’ is that it puts the onus on the child. As a general rule the child would like to be in school but the school make it a tough place to be. School refusa...

20th Nojovember. Craft fair in Hot town, summery in the city - 2017

19th Nojovember. Duct tape and drying in Hot town, summery in the city - 2017
Found some cracks in the tile grout in the bathroom and I’m pretty sure that’s where the water has been getting through. As a stop gap I’ve duct taped it up. Of course, me being me, I only have ...
It’s always fun to be sitting, watching telly while your child showers only to become aware of the sound of a waterfall in the kitchen… The water that poured from the ceiling got into one of the...
It’s funny, breathing is something that panics me. Firstly I’m asthmatic and secondly. What’s with the evolution of one entry/exit for both food and air and god forbid if they ever get mixed up a...
