There was a full moon last night. A full moon in Leo, opposite Pluto. Did anyone else start howling? I’m delighted to announce that we are all back on track and fully recovered, even my Mum who definitely had it the worst of anyone and whose cough sounded like she was chain-smoking 50 fags a […]
These daily scribbles are going to have be renamed “whenever-I-get-a-chance” scribbles… almost two weeks now since I last wrote one. The trouble is that the only real opportunity I’ve had to write has been in the evenings once Bowie is asleep and usually I’m so tired and fuzzy-eyed that I can’t muster up the energy […]
I have been M.I.A. the past ten days; so much so, you’d be forgiven for thinking I’d abandoned these daily scribbles once again. Not so my friends! I just had so much going on – from helping my husband over the Jazz weekend to breast scans to a barely-squeezed-in coffee-date to sleepless nights (yes, still, […]
I can’t imagine I’m going to write anything too special tonight, I was tempted to leave off today’s scribble but as I’d already missed yesterday’s one I figured I should write something. It’s crazy the effect tiredness has on you, from your mood to your energy; I spent most of this afternoon getting so cranky […]
Today was one of the nicest days I’ve had in a long time. I went out for a walk with Alex and Bowie around 11 am. We got Bowie all wrapped up and cosy in his “eskimo” onesie and I nearly burst from the cuteness. We ended up walking a good long distance as we […]
And that’s probably the hardest thing about becoming a Mum for me, even harder than the lack of sleep: the sudden disappearance of time to yourself.
Again a day behind. Will I ever catch up? Wrote this yesterday, never got to post it: There will be no mention of “Sleep Bootcamp” today. None whatsoever. I won’t be talking about how amazing my little boy is at falling asleep by himself now or how he had another really good night and gave […]
I’m still a day behind with posting – today I may just catch up but here’s yesterday’s scribble that I wrote and never got a chance to publish! I’ve probably bored away so many of you at this stage with two posts in a row all about getting my little munchkin to sleep. So I […]
If you don’t have kids or any interest in getting a little one to sleep when they’re throwing a whopper of a tantrum, you might want to skip this post, because that’s pretty much all I’m going to write about. On the other hand, if you’re curious, grab a mug of tea and some chocolate […]
I’ve been struck down again. I knew it – I knew I shouldn’t have rushed around like a mad woman on Friday trying to get so much done and stressing myself out in the process. Mastitis. It’s practically my middle name at this stage. In the six months since I had Bowie, this is my […]
