Apparently this is where Miss E hoped we’ll be staying for the last week or so.
Well this is her dream room anyway, and I can’t help being kind of pleased because we’re on the way there. I mean, she has a wardrobe, a bed, walls, a ceiling, and a clock, as well as book […]
Todays post has very little writing in it because my brain is jelly.
I’m finally catching up on a little reading though, and at Akelamalu’s I happened upon this which led me to this and I felt all excited. I know, sad isn’t it?
So thanks Claire for the much needed inspiration, and this is my […]
Day two of the fabulous blog meet and we went to Starbucks.
I have had Starbucks coffee brought to me before. I am like the queen in that way, people bring me stuff (hee hee), so I knew it was good, but I don’t think I’ve ever sat down in the above mentioned establishment and […]
Once there was a little pigeon called Simon.
One day, fed up of his pigeon coloured feathers, of the dark roof top grey, and the pale pavement gray, and the shimmering oily green at his throat, Simon decided to go shopping.
While most of us would think that quite unusual, Simon had no concerns about his […]
Ok.
I am a little, well, drunk.
I have recently returned from a night on the town with my hubby, where we had a fabulous meal here, then wandered into Mansfield and partook of a few glasses of the hard stuff in a couple of local hostelries. (Well actually I had tonic as I was already […]
Sighhhh.
Wouldn’t you just like to be there?
As we come to the end of another cold, damp and miserable day, this picture on BBC News 24 really caught my eye.
It also made me feel oddly hungry.
In fact, those rocks look a bit like spuds (potatoes), and the pea green boat looks like, well, a boat of […]
Todays Fun Monday is being hosted by the lovely Lisa Chaos who says,
‘Let’s meet your pets. I think most of us have at least one pet and I would like to see your fluffy or scaly pal. If you don’t have a camera you can tell us about him/her/them. If you […]
It’s been a mad day today.
Busy, fun, productive, but mad.
Miss M and I spent the afternoon at The King & Miller, (a pub nicely situated opposite the local hospital), with a group of friends who have kids Miss M’s age, where we did secret Santas and a ton of hardcore playing.
After picking up Miss E […]
Ahhh today has been a good day and it’s only 9.11am.
How cool is that?
The Beaufoix babes are much better and Miss M woke at 1.00am and Daddy sorted her. I didn’t even stir.
No really, I didn’t!
And while I breakfasted the mini B’s on toast and fruit juice, they created works of art with Miss […]
Remember Miss M’s body art incident?
Well, we have progressed from arms and legs to other things…
I’m all for creative exploration and self expression, but there has to be some limits right??
So, should I see this as a small hooligan with a brown felt-tip, graffiti-ing (is this a word??) a privately owned property?
Or
Miss M exercising her […]
