Even though it’s the Easter holidays and I’m pretty sure I must have rested a bit my brain fog won’t let up. I promised myself I’d write a blog, but my words won’t work so I’m going easy on myself and mopping up the last few holiday stories I forgot to share before x (evenContinue reading “Holiday blog mop up!”

Mothers Day 2026, best one so far and it’s only 08:26 xxx
It was 06:22, a lie in for mid week, but not for Sundays, however Matilda Mai Nippet aka Princess Fluffypants had not got the memo. Truth be told, both dogs were on the bed because the boiler is currently on the blink and we were using them as hot water bottles. Lee instantly said he’dContinue reading “Mothers Day 2026, best one so far and it’s only 08:26 xxx “
Home xxx
Oh the pleasure of being back in the bath! That gets me thinking of the poem by Robert Browning, written whilst he was in Italy and missing Englands Springtime, the Chaffinch song and the blossoms. “ Oh, to be in England Now that April’s there, And whoever wakes in England Sees, some morning, unaware, ThatContinue reading “Home xxx “
The worst walk EVER and I mean EVER! Xxx
Yesterday was going well, all things considered. To take into consideration – So we have been housebound for the last 3 days and the boys have gone feral! Trying to stop Oli from being active and Harry from bumping into him has been like trying to hold back a tidal wave and I am exhausted! Continue reading “The worst walk EVER and I mean EVER! Xxx “
Mojo xxx
I haven’t written in a while, but feel I should, a few special people in my life have requested that I do. So I’ve upped to strength 5 on the old coffee, picked up my mobile, (apparently we don’t call it a phone nowadays? Not down with the kids and they look at you allContinue reading “Mojo xxx”
Christmas 2025
Well it’s fair to say we’ve had a rollercoaster of a Christmas break! All the exciting, fun, Christmasy bits like the baking, the Christmas Eve night lights walk, the presents, the food, oh the food! The time together, woohoo! But then we’ve had this pesky flu virus that zapped us of our very souls forContinue reading “Christmas 2025”
Phenomenon xxx
I am physically incapable of writing or saying the word phenomenon without being transported to Sandra Bullock acting as a psychiatrist in the Muppet Show and repeatedly saying the word to the theme tune in 1996! If you want to read more about Sandra you’ll have to Google it because this story is about ourContinue reading “Phenomenon xxx “
Hello xxx
I haven’t written for a while, but feel I should, but it’s just so difficult to start. A close friend who went to AA once told me she was given the analogy that you’ve had a massive party, you’ve got up in the morning and the place is wrecked, rubbish, dirty glasses covering every surfaceContinue reading “Hello xxx”
AWOL xxx
It is fair to say my brain has been absent without leave. Cluttered with the sheer horror of relocating my brother with MS and Aspergers and his carer from Weston-super-Mare to Taunton. You know you get those tasks you need to do and you get so worked up and all of a dither about themContinue reading “AWOL xxx”
Impulse xxx
So yesterday was another one of those delicious days! The weather couldn’t make up its mind and went from severe gusts of wind a la Mary Poppins (if you know, you know) to dazzling sunshine. Attire for football – dry robe, umbrella, sunglasses! Me, not the boys, that would definitely have hindered their performance. BothContinue reading “Impulse xxx “
