I’ve spent a lot of time away from my site since having little Nate (busy busy) however,  now that my passion (and the fact that I have a little more time on my hands) has once again appeared, I’m thinking a new theme layout may be in order? It’s looking a little…’Blah’ wouldn’t you say? [...]

Why oh why is it impossible for me to complete the simple task of ordering the weeks shopping, without any mistakes? Last week I planned on cooking my boys a lovely Beef Roast so,  I proceeded to the Meat section, hunted down the Beef and ordered what I thought was approx £6.00′s worth. When the [...]

How is that one day I’m picking up Alfie from the last day of Summer Term (thinking “how the hell am I going to keep my little Alfie occupied for the next 6 weeks”) and then, as if by the blink of an eye, I’m walking back up the School, & waving him off for [...]

When it comes to days out I’m a little bit of an adventure/historical/information geek! Saturday was absolutley gorgeous however rather than spend it sunbathing or shopping, we decided to take a trip to StoneHenge.  We drove past a while back on the way home from Bournemouth, where I took a fly by shot and I [...]

I officially prefer ‘regular’ food shopping over Online food shopping, any day! I found it most frustrating not being able to ‘pick up’ what I was looking at. Which is odd, as I don’t get like that when shopping for clothes online?  I was unable to order any fruit or vegetables because I’m SO picky [...]

I was told in my 20′s that I had IBS. I’d been suffering severe bloating for about a year on and off (more ON than off) and decided it was time to get something sorted. Some days it would be just too painful to even go to work, I’d be laid up on the sofa [...]

I watched a rather odd program when I got home last night. (the drive from Essex back to reading is always a tiring one so I need something non-complex to watch) It was called ‘The Man Who Eats Badger’ (<click here to watch on You Tube) Initially I thought the dude was off his loaf [...]

This is going to be a relatively short post as I’m using the smallest key pad known to man and the title is kind of self explanatory but basically, thanks to my new Blackberry Curve I can now blog on the go. Perfect for the long trips to Essex I make once a month which [...]

Anyone seen Marley and Me? Well, Im kinda having a similar moment from the Movie. It’s the part where Jennifer Anniston is torn between going back to work, and staying home with the Bambino’s (that’s my word for children) She says that her work and her children are all she thinks about. And by trying [...]

I probably forgot to mention that I’ve been a huntin’ for a job, (which would explain my lack of blog posts) Seriously though, this looking for a job malarkey is pretty time consuming…especially when no one will give me a damn job!! I mean, I used to work for The Job Centre as a client [...]

I’m normally a ‘shout ya mouth off’ kinda gal, something or someone annoys me, they hear about it…Capeesh! However, I learnt a wise and valuable lesson from Steve the other day. I learnt that sometimes, just taking a back seat and waiting for the ignorant other to ‘FAIL’ is much more satisfying. So the story [...]

Man do I feel like Verruca Salt at the moment! And incase you’re wondering, she was the petulant little girl from the movie ‘Willy Wonka’s Chocolate Factory’ I’m the kind of girl that, when I see something that catches my eye or, I get an idea I have to have it, or do it NOW! [...]

Ever feel like you’ve slipped into a black whole, only to emerge on the other side a couple of months down the line?? Well, that’s kind of how I feel. One minute I’m having my 28th Birthday in October next thing I know, Alfie has turned 6, Little Nathan is One years old & I’m [...]

So, It’s a little cold & windy outside. Kids are away for the weekend, you haven’t that much money to go do something extravagant, but at the same time you don’t want to waste the day, what do you do? You go Kayaking!! Ok, we went Kayaking It was awesome! We were the only Kayakers [...]

Ok is it me or, were children’s programs a lot better when we were younger? I’m thinking yes, who’s with me? Anywho, you probably think it’s a rather stange subject to bring up however, my life at the moment is my children (hence the lack of posts) & their life ‘partially’ revolves around the TV [...]

Before I go on the missing again I gotta share this picture I stumbled across! It seriously made me chuckle! No matter where you’re from, just don a Manchester accent & voila, you have some ’4King Cupcakes’
