Stuff You Never Knew You Wanted To Know

Saturday, May 2, 2009

Mr B is poorly sick. So, today when I had planned a ton of tidying, cleaning, organising, and possibly a drink with a friend, instead I have my two little monkeys tucked up in bed. He did manage to take them for their hair cuts and a McDonalds, but an over night stay [...]

I’ll let you in to a secret. I should be in Florida right now. I should be staying at a fabulous hotel in Disneyland, alongside 7 other UK bloggers, courtesy of Mickey Mouse. I should be savouring the delights of sampling a holiday that is apparently accessible to families on all budgets. I’d have been [...]

This is a bit of an experiment. Not in the test tubes and bunsen burners kind of way, but in the ‘Mr B set up my wireless for me’ kind of way. So, I’m actually outside in my back garden. I’m not sure how far into the garden this will work, but I’m hoping I can actually [...]

Tonight, for the sake of my blog, I will be bathing. I’m not a stinky old troll, honest, but I’ve been sent some fabulous freebies test products by the fab folks at Shiny Red on behalf of Aveeno, in the hope that I will do them justice in a review. I’m kind of excited as it looks [...]

Today a little glimmer of light flashed at the end of the tunnel.

Last night was [...]

Thanks for all your good thoughts everybody. Please keep them coming. It can’t hurt right? I’ve managed to get a cancellation so Miss M will see the consultant next week. I’m so relieved as a month would have sent me completely mad. MIss M herself seems fine which is a good sign. She is at this [...]

Exploitative moi?

Often, when people ask me what I write about on my blog, I say ‘anything, everything, life, the kids…’, and they give me that look. The look that is a little suspicious, a little judgmental, a little wary. And I get the feeling they’re thinking, “You write about your kids?? You’re a terrible mother.” I’ve also [...]

It’s Tuesday, and having survived a weekend that included my sister’s first hen night and Miss M’s 4th birthday party where we fed and entertained 40 small children, I bring to you a feast of fabulous blogging parents for you to consume.

Last but not least of my interviewers I have the gorgeous, talented writer, runner and part time pineapple smuggler, Holl. Known for her extreme political beliefs (snort), her serious and thought provoking posts (giggle) and her work as spokesperson for Polly Pockets everywhere. (hee hee). She is also one of my bezzie mates after meeting in real life and finding [...]

Today I have questions from the fabulous Bubblewench who tells it like it is and makes me laugh or nod in agreement. Not only is she bosom buddies with my gorgeous Cami, but she has also met Daryl in person too and they’ve become real life buddies like me and Holl and Belle. She also has a [...]
