You Want To Live In My House Don’t You?

Tuesday, April 21, 2009

This has been my job tonight. I’m half way there but I’ve just spent 2 hours on the phone with one of my bezzie mates in the world ever, Miss Ju. I can’t believe I’ll see her in June. It’s been about 2 years since I last saw her but she still manages to be there [...]

As the well known old saying goes, ‘Tomorrow we move, tonight we drink wine and eat chocolate.’ (That is definitely a real saying and not made up by me at all.) I can’t believe we’ll actually be moved in this time tomorrow evening, or that I’ll hopefully be cooking tea in my house surrounded by family and [...]

Discovery of the day… I always new that that fake sword would come in handy. Thanks to its plastic pointyness the space beneath Miss E’s bed it is now clear of debris. There are no Barbie shoes, bouncy balls, high school musical postcards or socks. It’s amazing sighhhh. The ‘For Sale’ board went up today. It’s weird. [...]

Today a little glimmer of light flashed at the end of the tunnel. Thanks to the support from so many very, very special people who I respect and care about so much both in the real world and blog land, (Thank you everybody, you’re amazing), I’m feeling a whole lot better today. Last night was [...]

She’s a little Glowing Friend

Nic is my shining light tonight as she is getting me out for a chat and a chill and a few bevvies. She doesn’t actually shine in the ‘glittery, blinding, useful in a powercut’ kind of way, as only superheros and vampires can do that, but she shines in the sparkly beautiful friend sort [...]

We just got back. I have two very tired children and am feeling a little on the sleepy side myself. Yawn. So it’s early bed and hopefully sleeeeeep, though I will miss the gorgeousness that has been or boudoire for the last two nights. Isn’t it amazing? I’ve never stayed anywhere like this before. (Well except the [...]

A Whole Bunch of stuff

Being 34 seems kind of ok so far. I’m sat on the floor in our lounge eating Quorn Shepherds Pie while Miss M munches on kiddy pizza and Miss E devours her pasta. It’s not often at this time of day that I sit with my girls, TV off, toys away, chatting and laughing. It [...]

It was fantastic. Even though our train was an hour late. Even though it then broke down. Even thought we caught the wrong tube. Even then, it was fabulous. Right now I am a little erm, overwhelmed and will not be long for bed. Nothing to do with late nights or alcohol I promise. So for now I will [...]

Arghhhh, it’s midnight and I’ve not posted yet. But I have a good excuse. A year ago today one of my bezzie mates, Dez, left for NZ with her lovely man Jay. It’s been a year since I’ve actually laid eyes on her except for in photos, and we’ve just spent the last 3 hours skyping [...]
