A speed bump in my exercise

I was pretty gutted on Saturday night to get out for a walk with my other half, to only get a small way up the road and realise that I couldn't go on with the pain. Shin splints. A few years ago I was "training" for a mini marathon and I got shin splints. I … Continue reading A speed bump in my exercise

Not my story to tell?

This is something I would love to hear feedback from other bloggers on. It is something that comes into my mind a lot when I think of things I would like to write about. It is something I struggle with. A lot of my life time stories are not just MY stories. There are other people … Continue reading Not my story to tell?

I’m back!

I've been a bit quiet the past week or two because I've been arranging the celebrations for my Princess P who made her First Holy Communion this weekend. The school and the children put a lot of work into the religious side of the celebration, and I just had to do the planning, cooking and … Continue reading I’m back!

Sick baba’s

Yesterday I sat under my baby all day. Or so it felt. Reality is it wasn't all day, but it felt like that because until 5.30pm I didn't get a chance not to be minding sick kids. Baba Z did not sleep a wink the night prior, and finally fell asleep for an hour at … Continue reading Sick baba’s

Wedding Planning!

Its FOUR months until our wedding. And I've pretty much done no planning. Ooops! I think what happened was that I came to a blank after sitting down and writing the guest lists. And the numbers came out huge. So then I had to work on scaling back. And its still high enough. So I … Continue reading Wedding Planning!

(I just heard on the radio that it might be the last of these sunny days for a while - so make the most of it!) I've been a little bit quiet because … Continue reading Have a beautiful day!

New week, back to routine

Its a new week, the kids are back to school - and I'm back on track! (thats the plan!) I love having the kids off on school holidays because we have so much more freedom and can do loads. But I also love when they go back to school because its starting back into routine … Continue reading New week, back to routine

Where’s my mind gone?!

My baby is now one year old! That is significant to me, other than for all the obvious reasons, because that was the deadline that I had given myself for my mental capacity to return to normal. And it hasn't! I struggle with remembering things. I have to grasp around for the right words which … Continue reading Where’s my mind gone?!

Emotional Week

I've had a very emotional week this last week. And for an unusual reason for me (I'd often be very emotional over things) but this was a first. Our dog had puppies. They arrived a week earlier than expected, and we weren't prepared. We had planned to take our other dog out from the run, … Continue reading Emotional Week

Wedding Planning!

So I am getting married in just over six months! We're not having a traditional formal wedding - it will be more like a fun party to celebrate our marriage. I'm starting to make plans now, so I am glued to Pinterest and searching wedding sites. My head is completely melted with the amount of … Continue reading Wedding Planning!
