Me Me Me
Merry Christmas!
Please enjoy this thinly veiled attempt to show you how perfect my life is an how beautiful my children are under the guise of sending you my best wishes. (but seriously, have an awesome day) (and dude, you have to admit it, my boys (and bauble daughter) are seriously gorgeous)
I Don’t Heart My Body
There. I said it. There’s been a swag of posts over the weekend based around the “I Heart My Body” theme on We Heart Life and it’s one that I just can’t join in with. I have never loved my body, but I haven’t always hated it either. I was a size ten seventeen year … Continue reading
Unpublished
How would you feel if you entire backlog of drafts (and don’t lie, I know you’ve got them!) were posted without your knowledge. Just one blip and everything that you didn’t feel fit for publishing was laid bare for all of the Interwebs to see? It happened to me yesterday, at least I thought I … Continue reading
My Baby Died Yesterday
No, not Robyn, although some days it feels like it. Not the wee one that hung around for just a few weeks, just long enough to ease the pain of Robyn’s first birthday and then left without ever really making a mark. This is the new one, dubbed “Hercules” by its biggest brother. And as … Continue reading
Saturday Consisted Of…
Showers, and me concluding that Declan is part amphibian. Connor, on the other hand, will spend the entire time daring himself to actually go under the stream of water instead of just putting his hands and feet into it. Baking, with thanks to Woman’s Weekly, the northern hemisphere is seriously missing out on this one, … Continue reading
The (Virtual) Pages Of My Life
Earlier this morning I was reading a friend’s livejournal, when Connor snatched the mouse from me, clicked some random buttons and brought me to my own livejournal, in particular the “just plain weird” category of my own LJ. I haven’t used LJ regularly for years, the most recent post was from November of 2006 complaining … Continue reading
Only Words
Last week I bit the bullet and got a referral from our GP to go and speak to a Psychologist. He gave me a referral to who I had requested (Declan’s pysch, who announces on his card that he “does big kids too!”), but not before making me do the dreaded “How Close Are You … Continue reading
An Apology
You know when you get a little distracted and don’t post for a while. And then your mum comes to visit (with less than a weeks notice!), and of course you shouldn’t be messing around on the internet during the first time you’ve seen her in 18 months. Then you get sick, and spend two … Continue reading
The Voices Inside My Computer
The internet plays a big part in my life, I met Dan way back when through our respective blogs (although back in the dark ages they were still called “online journals”), most of our family income in generated through our sites and connections we make online, and, as sad as it may seem to most … Continue reading
Sew Happy
I love sewing. The process of cutting up bits of fabric and putting them back together seems completely insane to some (aka, my husband) but I really can’t think of anything I would rather do with my spare time. I love fabric, I love trying out new techniques and colour combinations, most of all I … Continue reading
