Top 5 tips for bloggers.
Seen lots of these around on twitter the last couple of days, and now worked out why – it’s a listography prompt I can do that. 1) Blog for yourself. If you don’t, you won’t enjoy it. If you don’t … Continue reading
Swimming, reading, playing.
Today we have swum. The children played games. I read a book. They watched a film, we swam some more. Let’s dwell on those positive moments. Goodnight.
I made the stars.
Walking through the dark woods tonight, hand in mine, Smallest looked up at the sky, and said in all seriousness “I made the stars.” I don’t quite know what she meant, but I wasn’t going to argue. In showing them … Continue reading
That creative challenge…
A little while ago I set myself a creative challenge. First of all I had to buy some dpns (double pointed needles) the local charity shop came through there, with three different sets for £2.40. Bargain. So I tried with … Continue reading
Losing the day.
The evening got away from me tonight, something to do with a poorly toddler, swim club at a different time that I haven’t got the hang of, and life in general. Poorly toddler is now in bed, hopefully sleeping it … Continue reading
Returning briefly to our normal programming…
Actually, I’m not quite sure what passes for normal around here. Just as soon as we settle into some kind of pattern something changes. So for a while I’d been saying after Christmas or in January we’ll do… And then … Continue reading
Can you imagine it?
Yesterday I posted about the spartacus report and the government welfare reform bill and what you can do about it. I tweeted lots, watched the post views triple, emailed my MP, signed and shared the epetition, was featured by Mumsnetbloggers, … Continue reading
I’m as mad as hell and I’m not going to take this any more.
I read an article in the Guardian last night. It had chilling echoes for me of a previous situation where a government decided they didn’t like something and would legislate against it, regardless of the actual facts of the situation. … Continue reading
Our Year in Books.
Last year we kicked off with a charity challenge to read and review 100 books in a month. We nearly made it, but in the end it proved too ambitious a target. It wasn’t the reading that was the problem, … Continue reading
Don’t go changing, or, I want.
Turned the radio on tonight while I was in the kitchen cooking tea (toad in the hole for carnivores, cheesy yorkshire pudding for the less meat thirsty, ok, me, thanks for asking) and was greeted with the dulcet tones of … Continue reading
Trying to get organised.
Today I started with an osteopath appt. Well, actually that was at 10.30, so I tried to get up and do stuff first, but didn’t really seem to get very far. That is the way I need to go though, … Continue reading
I guess I must have been tired
I didn’t get up particularly early this morning, although I wasn’t desperately late either. But by midday I was flagging, drooping on a chair in the kitchen, barely keeping my eyes open. So I gave in, with twitter permission, and … Continue reading
Not a retrospective.
New Year’s Eve is an odd day for my family. It should be my youngest sister’s birthday, it is her daughter’s. So we gather together to have a party for a nine year old, those of us from further away … Continue reading
Even if it rains
there are nice ppl around. It was a glorious morning this morning. So obviously I sat in the house and put off shopping until there was a freezing rain this afternoon. Sigh. In my defence my phone didn’t warn me… … Continue reading
Redeeming the day.
The week between Christmas and New Year is usually pretty quiet, and uninterrupted by external forces. Today was an exception to that rule, with two appointments this morning, and then I planned a shopping trip. Midwife arrived sometime after 9.30 … Continue reading
Not quite a resolution…more of a challenge!
but I want to spend more time crafting and creating. I want to challenge myself creatively. I want to design items and make them, write patterns and share them, learn new techniques and broaden my horizons. And I’ve chosen a … Continue reading
