Would someone please pass me the Valium? I’d settle for a stiff drink! Or both, I mean I do have two hands! So yesterday started at 04:38 because of the dog, trials and tribulations of having fluffy friends. Twinkle 1 decided his day would start at 05:43, bang goes my luxurious private bath, in stepsContinue reading “Slurps up xxx”

What’s new pussycat? Well I’ve done my knee in again and personally I blame the pig, Peppa Pig that is! Let me unravel my tale of woe and twisted tendons for you if you will. It was bed time story time Sunday night and Harry had chosen a Peppa Pig book about George finding aContinue reading “Pigs in blankets xxx”

So the greatly anticipated Monday 6th September 2021 arrived! The Twinkles got up, bleary eyed from the restless night before, anyone would have thought it was Christmas Eve. They got dressed in their shiny new uniforms being mindful of cleaning their teeth first. Ollie particularly likes to clean his belly with his toothbrush, it’s aContinue reading “Today xxx”

The big day is here! Not just because it’s Nanny Pat’s birthday! Big school! All shiny shoes and knobbly knees! The Twinkles are excited and looking forward to meeting friends they made at the induction day. Everything is ready, school uniforms named, bags tagged and I remembered to do their homework. Correction they did theirContinue reading “Knobbly knees xxx”

I love this time in the morning, it’s all mine. Well apart from yesterday when little Harry decided to join me. It wasn’t a choice as such, he’d had another bad night and even though Lee went up to sleep in the spare bed in their room, he still ended up in bed with me.Continue reading “Drugs”

That there fox is picking on me! Was at our bins again last night. Maybe he likes the cut of our jib or the taste of our mouldy potatoes. It’s only 06:31 and I’ve already learned something new! I thought cut of the jib was something to do with the shape of your collar orContinue reading “Mr Fox”

Blinking fox got at the bins again, coleslaw carnage all over our drive way. Lee offered to clear it up, but I knew it was a result of me not Tetris stacking the recycling like he does and cleared up my own mess. It was so gross and I actually felt quite bad for breakingContinue reading “Wee baby xxx”

So it turns out I may have poisoned the husband, not on purpose I hasten to add! Coleslaw was the culprit, fizzy coleslaw, with a way to go yet on its expiry date. Oh well, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger and slimmer on this occasion, although I wouldn’t recommend fizzy coleslaw as aContinue reading “Fizzy xxx”

So, another trip to A&E last night, seriously feel like we are becoming regulars! Harry this time for a change! There we all were, early evening, tinkering away. I was running the boys a bath when I heard an almighty scream from down stairs. As a parent, you know the real ones. I went runningContinue reading “Rock Face xxx”

Well that was a rough old night, lucky if I cobbled together 4 hours sleep!  The dog had an aversion to its worming tablets (bum worms as Harry calls it), the other dog snored its little tail off and practically sucked the curtains in, something bit me (not the dogs or the twins or theContinue reading “Borrowed time xxx”
