Every cloud has a silver lining… or something

As you may have noticed, things around here have been a bit of a misery-fest.  2011 did its absolute best to get what had been a fairly rubbish year to go out with a bang.

 

Thanks for that 2011 – really appreciated your efforts.

 

And then, despite having very low expectations, 2012 . . . → Read More: Every cloud has a silver lining… or something

Breaking through the blogger’s block

 

Sorry I haven’t posted much lately – there’s been various stuff going on that has cluttered up my mind and made me struggle to work out what I want to write and what, when I’ve written it, I can post on here. We are back in the house – it is probably 95% . . . → Read More: Breaking through the blogger’s block

Signs I am turning into my mother No2

I have just spent 10 minutes rummaging in my knicker drawer to make sure I have matching knickers and bra and yes, I did think, I must have nice undies just in case, you know, something happens and someone sees them.  For the record I am thinking more about getting knocked down and less . . . → Read More: Signs I am turning into my mother No2

Down with New Year Resolutions!

As happens every January I have been dithering about whether the New Year should mean the start of a new me.   My biggest block to this is that I have a January birthday – I have spent years trying to sort out birthday drinks or meals only for the majority of people to . . . → Read More: Down with New Year Resolutions!

Am I the only anti-social social media user?

There is something awfully satisfying about trying to get back in control of your digital life – I find that if I don’t pay attention my inbox (both work and blog/home) rapidly disappears out of control. I wasn’t online much from the middle of December for a variety of reasons – I have heaps . . . → Read More: Am I the only anti-social social media user?

The Chicken Pox survival guide

Not an ideal way to start the year but hey, they have to have it at some point…  That said I’m not convinced that vaccinating isn’t the way to go, it may be a mild childhood disease but it has been hard work for all us, not least the spotty one.

 

So just . . . → Read More: The Chicken Pox survival guide

Signs I am turning into my mother No1

I have just told a condescending customer services person that I have not given them permission to call me by my first name and that I am Mrs Muddling.

 

Send help – I am so turning into my mother!  I can remember her having this exact same conversation when I was child.

Happy New Year!

I’ve held off posting about the start of the new year – I’m uncertain about how I feel about another year starting if I’m being honest.

 

I am glad that 2011 has finished – it wasn’t a great year, a lot of things didn’t work out as they perhaps should have and I’m . . . → Read More: Happy New Year!

Did we all survive?

Amazing how time can stretch and warp and change – we’ve been away visiting various relatives for a week.  In some ways it seems as if we have been away for an age, in others that we’ve barely been more than a short time away.

 

Christmas was in some ways super, in others . . . → Read More: Did we all survive?

Operation de-dust

back in the house

Incredibly, unexpectedly we appear to be builder free.  Admittedly they are going to have to come back in the New Year to finish off some bits and pieces and we are still waiting for an electrician to turn up who should have been with us on Tuesday but those teeny, tiny things apart, we are builder . . . → Read More: Operation de-dust
