I seem to spend a lot of time lately searching ‘things to do with kids’. I think this is because they are at the age where they want to get out and do interesting stuff, the same old parks and places are becoming boring (their words not mine, I could spend days on end at [...]
I am Wonderwoman
January 30, 2017 By 1 Comment
I woke up this morning feeling less than wonderful. Sore throat, headache, felt like cement had been poured into my ear overnight. Not hungover I might add, just bone-achingly tired for a variety of reasons. So it was with delight that on entering the kitchen I saw the dishwasher open but not unloaded, washing up [...]
Yoga, Green Tea and Me
December 13, 2016 By Leave a Comment
Everything I do in my life I tend to go at with total and complete enthusiasm. For about a month or two. Sometimes longer but in the words of Joan Armatrading – the passion fades. So it is rather refreshing that the slightly strange and unintended ‘self-improvement’ programme I seem to have undertaken has, in [...]
Mindfulness

First off I’m delighted that I managed to figure out how to access this blog again. I thought it was lost and gone forever and that the world would be left without any more of my hugely talented writing. But NO the universe was looking on at me and indeed you with love. And this [...]
All hail Kale

Do you know it’s so rare that I write here that I cross my fingers each time that my computer will remember the password. It should be a simple thing to reset it but it’s not because I set this up in 2009 and many email addresses and wordpress sites have come since then. Such [...]
The Tilly Way of Life
July 17, 2015 By Leave a Comment
Tilly was recently 6, this is a big milestone since now she has declared that I cannot decide her ‘way of life’ any longer. I found this out thus: “Tilly time to get in the bath please.” “Mummy you can’t tell me what to do, you can’t decide my way of life.” Right. Here we [...]
Their Musical Education #2: Silicone & Strap Ons.
March 22, 2015 By Leave a Comment
I regularly scold myself for failing to write down the things my girls say. I started this blog in order to do that very thing, to record the moments that are so easily forgotten. But a blog, like many other things, seems to have a lifecycle. You start super keen. You write your heart out, [...]
Bit Bored Of Mummy
January 9, 2015 By 1 Comment
And so I find myself in 2015 sitting at a new (old) kitchen table, in a new (to me) kitchen in a new (to me) house. I have a view of my lovely garden and I’m working for my new company that I set up with my business partner. Goodness how things change. This time [...]
The blog about why I haven’t blogged
September 21, 2014 By 1 Comment
Dear Blog I’m so sorry I’ve neglected you. I never thought I’d be the type to build something up, make it flourish and grow and then just when it became dependent upon my regular nurturing, cruelly cast it aside in favour of all manner of other things we call life. How very dare I? And [...]
