Boldly into March

Saturday, 8 March 2014
No wonder mumsnet rejected my initial entry to be in the blogger's network! 'Give it at least six posts, eh pal?' They suggested. 'Huff puff!' Said I, insulted.

So back on the wagon, for a quick brain dump to get me back in the swing!


This wee hunk has been unwell, which has obliterated an entire week, but he's a good bit better now and has even penned his first novel, complete with marketing blurb on the back:


I've been trying to get back out running, but a runner I am not.


Not likely to set the world on fire, but we'll see how it goes, remember I'm a lifter... Check out the shoulders now!


In bargain corner, I got an Enrapture totem styler for £18 in Home Bargains, full review to follow...


Right, nut screwed. I'll be back. Honest.

Friday round up

Friday, 31 January 2014

Oh the CHEEK of me! This has been sitting in drafts for almost a week! My excuse is that I've been playing around with photoshop again to try and learn some tricks to help with my shocking photo layouts... As you can see I'm no further forward, so any help greatly appreciated!

This week I discovered this Crack-in-a-jar. Best served from a plastic spoon whilst standing in the kitchen for calorie reduction...

Lotus Spread - I wish I'd never found this...


I also got a massive coldsore, to which Father in Law gave me this gadget...


And to be fair, it's nearly gone already...


Sunday roundup...

Sunday, 19 January 2014

Sunday Roundup! What a great idea! The hope here is that It will be a great prompt/excuse to make sure I keep updating the blog as regularly as possible!

So this week:




My baby Robin turned four. Four years ago this little awesome guy was lifted aloft from my spliced open stomach! I also had to enrol him for primary school.  This has made for an emotional week, I've cried in secret a lot.  I've cried at the telly, I've sobbed into tiny socks and I've blubbered at work.  But I made a CAKE. An epic pintrest worthy cake, as requested it had smarties, fingers and a JELLY SNAKE! I'm rather proud, but I ate a lot of it...


I organised my bra drawers.  They now resemble a saucy filing cabinet.


I caught an epic episode of Jeremy Kyle... Words fail me.


Finally, the quest for good hair continues, with a trial of Enrapture's heated rollers.  My Sleepin training meant I applied these to my dry hair in record time.  After 30 mins... I'm really rather impressed!
