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.

No I’m not divorcing Mr Muddling and announcing that my preference has changed gender. Although that would probably send my page views rocketing through the roof momentarily, must make a mental note of that for next time inspiration flags.

Do you hear that?
That quiet, that nothing?
Yup, that’s what I’m hearing too (ok this is illustrative, undoubtedly at the moment I am dealing with two small girls bouncing around the sitting room in the holiday home we’re staying in but hey, stay with me…)
Today is 28 days since . . . → Read More: Flexible working request – the sound of silence 
Let’s be clear, I don’t have a lot of free time – the job and silly little things like sleeping get in the way - and to be honest I don’t reckon there’s any risk of me being one of those people who fret that they do too much in the way of chores Saturday . . . → Read More: Do your children help out at home? 
Recently at work we have been rolling out a mentoring programme and I put my hand up to ask if I could be matched to someone.
