These are the times
I’m grateful for technology. For my smartphone that is letting me quietly blog next to the restless baby, shop I don’t have to sneak away and risk disturbing her. For the camping reading light that dp bought for my birthday … Continue reading
Carnival of differences – a request for posts.
As you’ve probably noticed, I’ve been blogging and tweeting a lot about the spartacus report and wrb (Welfare Reform Bill). I’d like to come at the whole disability awareness and benefit change thing from a different angle though, and I’d … Continue reading
French children don’t throw food – review.
I picked up a conversation about this book on twitter last week and was intrigued by the title. And then very grateful to be sent a copy for review. I was still so intrigued that I read it over the … Continue reading
Just a normal Saturday
I woke up stiff this morning. Smallest had managed to nap last night, and then didn’t want to go to sleep again, so it took me ages to settle her down. And then she woke up early this morning and … Continue reading

Browsing twitter the other evening, as I oh so occasionally do, I was surprised to see someone saying something along the lines of self service checkouts being a boon as they cut down on yellow sticker shame. (I’m sorry, I … Continue reading
What I wore Wednesday – two maternity outfits for price of one!
I’m not actually going to tell you what I wore on Wednesday. Instead, I’m going to talk about last Thursday and Friday, when I went down to High Wycombe (over to High Wycombe?) for a blogger event. Because of the … Continue reading

Rubbish diet – Monday meeting.
As part of our involvement with the rubbish diet we’ve got a weekly weigh in – every good diet has to keep track of how it’s all going after all. So before I ran out of the house towards the … Continue reading
Crafting with children
or more accurately, what do you do with boys? I’ve done a lot of craft through the years with Big. We’ve done first hama, midi hama, knitting, sewing, used bead looms and knitting looms, tried out origami and paper making … Continue reading
Wot, no twitter?
Picture a lost and lonely chad peering over the twitter wall… I read the forbes article on the #twitterblackout, and thought, yes, censorship is bad, must help send a message to twitter. So I blogged a quick mention, tweeted a … Continue reading
Emma’s Diary meetup.
I’ve been a bit quiet overnight and today. Mainly because yesterday I set off in the afternoon to travel through London and beyond so that I could spend today with some of my fellow Emma’s Diary bloggers and meet a … Continue reading
Iron levels. Again.
Yesterday I saw the midwife. And I got the results of the full blood count done 3 weeks ago. 10.6 for Hb levels, which according to the research I’ve read, puts me pretty near optimum levels for a good birthweight, … Continue reading
Never Coming Home by Evonne Wareham – review
I’ve read a wide variety of stuff already this year, and some of it has been slightly traumatic. Eg Life, Above All, read the book and watched the film for Movie Gazette. (That’s one of my new projects. I’m doing … Continue reading
