Take a moment!

Had a pretty bland week of not much. No riveting outings, no large unexpected gifts in the mail, no candlelit dinners with Italian musician....just the ordinary stuff that makes up most of our lives. I have had the kids all week hanging on my eyebrows because of school break and I am ashamed to say that my years of playing office-office sans kiddlets, has had an odd way of seeming appealing once again........but only this week, I promise.
I am such a ninny aren't I....8 days into school break and already I am whining.....I think I need a 'pamper-the-girl-for-sanity's-sake' day.......naaaaa! can't see it happening hahahaha!

Ok...Ok...I have been mindlessly wabbing for long enough now, I'll get to the juicy stuff.

........I got a mail from CK this morning. They want to publish another one of my L.O's! Yeeeeeehaaa! Now if you were in the room with me you would be privy to my customary **Happy dance of joy** .....here I go.....wiggle, jump....side step....turn, shimmy to the left, shimmy to the right, side splits!

Bwhahahahahaha! had you going there with the splits thing, didn't I? I used to be able to tho'(I danced for years) but now the only splits I can do is of the banana variety as it slides down my throat. So what started out as a mediocre week, now ends a fantastic one.

I serve a very generous God, that's for sure. I am full of 'it' & yet HE still chooses to spoil me.

Thanks DAD!

  5. What is it with modern mums!!!
    Now when I was a mum........hmmmmmm...back in the 70's (oh where was I), oh yes.... 3 kiddy-winks at school by 28...proper school, not play play stuff......those were the days....heck it was hard keeping you lot occupied, some had the button tin threading and making necklaces, others trying to parachute off the lounge roof with a pillowcase, and one asleep with the dog in the kennel!!!or making traps to catch birds, and NO TV, NO VIDEOS, NO DVD's to keep the mama from going insane....hmm those were the days my friend, I thought they'd never end, and hey presto, next thing I'm suffering from 'empty nest syndrome'....mothers just can't win, suddenly your're a grandparent, and life looks rosy again.... aren't blogs amazing, and of course SKYPE - we see Max growing up before our eyes, and we're not missing out because we live in 'sunny UK', the best is reading Max a story from England, and Max saying, "Hurry up Gramsy turn the page" that's why skype is the best invention ever!!! Enjoy mother-hood, it disappears very quickly......
