So, maybe a little Bah Humbug from me…Christmas Cards for the whole class?
I have resolved to enter this Christmas season with a new spirit, to enjoy and like Christmas and all it’s trimmings. I blogged recently about this you can read about it here. However, I am asking for a little grace for a spot of bah humbug and I think it’s justified. Of course, I am […]
READ MOREMy secret anorak thing….I love volcanoes
I have a thing, a hobby, if you like, that in any rare spare time, that I have, I like to indulge in. It’s a bit geeky, and very few people know about it. It’s not rude, or shameful, just a bit unusual for a suburban mother of two, I think. The reason there is […]
READ MOREHow to interact with an introverted person…

However, I really liked this one, and as an introverted person, who has spent most of her life learning how to cope with interacting […]
READ MOREDry Nites Bed Mats – Perfect for night-time?

One more time: No Regrets!
Last week, my Small Boy, who seems very small, in his uniform, trotting off with his book bag, started Nursery. This was a bigger milestone, for us, than it would seem. 6 months ago, we were in a pretty bad place. Small had some very evident sensory issues, and his behaviour and ability to cope in certain […]

Welcome to my Friday Rant from the Soap Box in my Living Room. A small space in the week where I can have a chunter about things that have made me twitch with annoyance or made me question if the world has gone mad or not…. I also linked up with MummyBarrow for her Ranty […]

I was very excited to be invited to be a guest blogger at Wriggly Rascals, which is a fantastic site, created by Shona Motherwell. I must admit, I am usually a bit leery of parenting websites, and try and avoid them, as sometimes they can be places where a lot of judgment and criticism of other […]
