Tips on how to understand why we do what we do
So did I mention that I’m on our first ever family summer holiday? Yep, a couple of times maybe? I’m hoping that at some point during this holiday I will have been able to watch the film or read the book ‘Eat, Pray, Love’ by Elizabeth Gilbert. I know that some people love it and […]
A lovely Mum I know posted the following tweet oneday ‘Hate that I’m intimidated by toddler group. Need to grow some balls. Figuratively speaking.’ so I offered to do a question corner post for her, because what she doesn’t know is that we are all scared shitless of walking into those places (well 99% of […]
I’m sure that if there was a 100% answer to this it would be worth millions, especially if it was just from a touch of the button, or from buying a gadget! I’ve been reading up a lot recently about sex, it must be my mid-life crisis, just about to turn 42 thing! It started […]

So it’s a new day, I feel lots better for my rant yesterday, and it’s all sorted out, and rather nicely it’s all made up with the Mummy blogger who started my rant off ((it wasn’t all about her after all, it was just started off there), so I’m very chuffed as I really respect […]
I’m going to rant. If you saw my blog on monday you’ll know that there are a few things that make me want to rant, and this is one of them. Jumping to conclusions and not giving people the benefit of the doubt. I know we all do it. But the mummy world is particularly […]
Hi Guys, Welcome to my new slot ‘Video Wed’. Now normally I’m expecting this to be quick little videos to cheer you up, make you laugh, or inspire you. But every now and again I might add something different, and that’s how I’m starting. I saw this video last night and was transfixed. For a […]
