I’ve been robbed!

November 23, 2013

Sorry before you all sympathize with me and become upset on my behalf let me explain. This is how I felt when I got up this morning. Today is Saturday. That means last night was Friday night. One of the best nights of the week. On a Friday night you can sit down and relax. … More I’ve been robbed!

I am not enjoying being a “stay at home” mother.

November 21, 2013

Up until Tuesday I told the world proudly “I am a stay at home mom“. I have had this very well paid and much sought after position now for over twenty years. Even though in the past few years I have worked outside the home six days a week, because I am always here in … More I am not enjoying being a “stay at home” mother.

An interview with my youngest daughter.

November 16, 2013

In response to the Daily Prompt FAQ I decided to “interview” my youngest. Here is the result of my interrogation. What age are you? I’m eleven. What age would you like to be, and why? I guess I’d like to be one year old. Because then I could remember what it was like to be … More An interview with my youngest daughter.

Lighten up, be a bad mother and reap the rewards.

November 15, 2013

Today I realized that after twenty one years of rearing a family, I have cracked the secret to “Good Health” and “Happiness”. Amazing, not just one secret but two! I was looking around my messy house, whilst my children did what they do best,  create more mess, and it came to me. It was like … More Lighten up, be a bad mother and reap the rewards.

My eldest brother is getting married. How lucky am I to be part of such a happy gathering. This brother is … More Cheers! Until we meet again.

Christmas in November!

November 9, 2013

My youngest and I went into town today to do some clothes shopping. Everywhere we went she would exclaim, “Oh look, I see Christmas lights”. They were not even turned on yet, but just the sight of them excited her. Now that Halloween is over, Christmas is all she can think about. Last week she … More Christmas in November!

At what age do men stop loving themselves?

November 6, 2013

Why you may ask am I picking on men? Dont women spend hours each day, making sure they look good? Yes you are correct, and many of us women do indeed like what we see. However what I refer to in my title, is a type of “loving” only applicable to men. Let me explain … More At what age do men stop loving themselves?

Two teachers I’ll never forget.

November 4, 2013

Last June my eldest son, my second child, finished school. He is now at university, having got exactly the course he wanted. Lucky him. Except it wasn’t luck that got him there. He did of course work hard, and put in the time required to succeed, but it was the devotion, skill and work, of … More Two teachers I’ll never forget.

What is a successful blog?

November 3, 2013

Is it a blog with a lot of followers? Or is it one with a huge number of pageviews? Does it matter how many unique visitors your get? Or is it more important to have many readers returning? I sometimes wonder “What is success for a blogger?” My blog is now nine months old, with … More What is a successful blog?

Kids always send a rainbow.

November 2, 2013

Today I was miserable. I wanted to be alone, but the house was full. I wanted the world to stop, but that was beyond my capabilities. Then at dinner we all sat together. The usual chatting and shouting began. The discussion moved to my eldest daughter, who will be having her wisdom teeth removed this … More Kids always send a rainbow.
