When I read that the Friday Club prompt for this week was to share five things I want my children to know about me, I thought I might give this one a miss because I really couldn't think of five things that they don't already know. Then, a post I read over at Typecast about making memories for our children made me think about what my first memory was which made me realise that my memories aren't written down anywhere. My children and their children will be able to look back at my blog and remember lots of the fun and special moments we had together but I can't do that, I just have whats … [Read more...]
What’s wrong with this picture….
Take a look at this picture. If you can see what's not right about it, you'll be able to understand why I have just walked around Tesco with people staring at me and sniggering! … [Read more...]

Special Things….
If I asked you to choose one cherished object from your house and write about it, do you think you could? Do you think you could choose just one thing? No, me neither! When I read that the prompt was for this weeks Friday Club was ' a cherished object in your home', I knew I was going to have problems narrowing it down and I spent last night wandering round the house with the camera round my neck.

I've seen those signs you get for the back of your car that say 'Mum's Taxi' but I never thought that I'd need one myself ;-) We have activities every night of the week at the moment!I think I'm over compensating for the fact that until recently the kids didn't really join in with many after school activities. I used to work 8.30am - 5.45pm four days a week so I was never at home to take them but since I reduced my hours at work to spend more time with them, we've signed up for everything that takes their fancy and the quality time I had envisaged us having together is mostly spent in the … [Read more...]
Operation Makeover: I found my first project….
Operation Makeover is now officially underway and seeing as I've found some lovely bargains this week, I though I'd share them with you as part of Magpie Monday ;-)I managed to find a new first project (after losing out on the lovely sideboard I won on ebay last week) and I think it's going to look brilliant when it's done. I'm going to sand it all down as I don't really like dark wood and then paint it in a creamy colour I think. I might even change the handles on it if I'm feeling really adventurous. Inspired by Jen, I went on a charity shop hunt for a glass cake stand and was … [Read more...]
