READ MOREFriday’s Rants from the Soap Box in MY Living Room!
Happy New Year. I hope you all had a very peaceful and happy Christmas. We did, it was blissfully quiet and just us for the most part. Just what we needed. I have lots of rants brewing in my head, but have deliberately taken a few days off from blogging to just have time out […]

Let’s talk about my mid-life crisis nose piercing…

Small Boy has reached that stage, where he is out of nappies and fully potty trained, during the day, but was still wearing a nappy at night, because he wasn’t ready to be without them, and was waking up in the morning, with a very full and wet nappy. We have been using a combination […]
