“I’ve a wedding tomorrow”, I say. “Oh fantastic, enjoy” they say. No, no, no, I think but do not say, because a wedding means dressing up and those of you familiar with my blog know I am allergic to dressing up. However I’ve no choice and this time tomorrow I’ll be transformed, on the outside … More Wedding Belle.
Ever feel like an outcast within your family? Do you notice that when you walk into a room it empties? Well that is my life at the moment. I know exactly when my family first began to treat me in this way but I think it’s about time everyone moved on. You see last Friday … More I’m an outcast.
I’m very famililar with the term Catholic guilt, but is that true? Are Catholics the only people who go through life with guilt? Of course not. There are all kinds of guilt.

It looks really good. I’ve seen the previews. I’d think you’d really like it.” Him, “Is it on … More A moment in my life

Well what do you think of the new ‘My thoughts on a page’? I’ve given it a makeover. Last night while trying to catch up with reading my fellow bloggers posts, I clicked into my good online pal, my weary minds blog. I’d noticed (with great envy) last week. her new look, and tonight as I … More The new me.
A year ago I got fed up with that gang over in ‘Freshly Pressed’ always missing my posts so I decided to begin my own award called ‘Freshly Impressed’. Each week I’d select a few posts I’d really enjoyed and share them here with those of you who might have missed them. Sometimes they were … More Freshly Impressed is back.
I’ve been a fairly useless wife for some time now, even though I’d never admit it to you know who. Take a measure of laziness, a teaspoon of ‘I hate housework’ and a bucket load of ‘I want to be on holiday’ and you will just about get what I’m like. However, this morning as I … More Who can I sue?
