You know you’ve watched too many films when….

Your husband goes away for work and all that runs through your head is someone attempting to break in and how you’d react to it!


Clearly I have an overactive imagination. I’m happy to report I’ve just woken up after the first night of him being away and all is fine. I didn’t have to use my torch to knock a robber unconscious to protect my family. 


Both kids have slept well, which is an added bonus as one hasn’t been very well. Also, usually, when one of us goes away, one of the kids ends up in our bed, which I don’t mind, it’s cute that they want to keep us company. I did walk into our bedroom last night after sorting stuff out, to find one of their teddies waiting on the bed.


I savour the morning time when I get up, as usually I get a good 45 mins where everyone else in the house is sleeping, I listen to how calm and quiet it all is before the chaos erupts with the repeated remarks of ‘come on guys, let’s get moving’ and the ‘go get yourselves ready for school’, which start off calm and gentle and usually end up with the whispered mutterings of ‘oh for fuck sakes’ escaping just enough to vent the frustration, but not for the kids to hear.


I wonder what delights today will have in store? My daughter is off school again, still not recovered from being unwell, so extreme closeups of her face, I’m sure, will be sent to me. I’m hoping me and my team will laugh as much today as we did yesterday. And at the end of the day, I’m hoping the bedtime routine runs smoothly, putting everyone in a good mood for bed.


I’m also hoping today that I find out if the bleach took well to the hair sample the hairdresser took. She hadn’t gotten around to it before yesterday morning.


I’m starting the day with positive

When all you want to do is cry!

Everybody has bad days, it’s just a part of being human. We all have our ups and downs. Today was a down.   It should have been such an exciting day. I’ve booked flights to go see one of my besties in America. Instead it turned into a day when I felt such a lack of respect from my manager and a colleague on an equal level to me.  It sucks having that feeling. I tried so hard to hold my shit together, then out of nowhere, one little tear escapes and I know I’m screwed.  Luckily I have another one of my besties that always makes the time I need to just get it out my system, cry on her as much as it takes and then I’m good to go! Thank fuck she was in the office today, I would be screwed without her! She will never know how much I need her in my life!

A change is always good!

Today is the day I decided that now is as good a time as any for a change! So, assuming my hair doesn’t melt in the strand test, in just over a months time I will go back to having some blonde highlights, with a root smudge and hopefully a couple interesting colours.  It’s a common theme with me to change the colour of my hair. I get to a point and decide I’m bored, then I search for endless hours on Pinterest or Instagram for inspiration. Last night I found ‘THE’ picture of the hair I want and I knew that was going to be my next experiment. I contacted my hairdresser and tonight, went to see her so she could take a strand of my hair to bleach tomorrow. I’m really hoping it doesn’t go badly. I guess we’ll find out tomorrow when she shows me a picture of the results. Fingers crossed!

The Intro to me!

Today is the day I decided to start blogging. Why, I hear literally no one scream!…..thanks for asking……because I have such beautiful content to put out there in the world that I felt blessing the world with it is my duty!   Only joking, it’s more like I’m having a midlife crisis and thought instead of having all this crap in my head, I’d burden the world with the random thoughts I sometimes have, that way it might feel like someone, at some point, is listen to me! Who am I? Great question! I, like literally millions of other people on this beautiful earth, am a granddaughter, daughter, wife, mother, friend and I like to hope, nice person (most of the time). I pay my bills on time….usually. I do that shop where you go in for 5 things and come out with over the weekly budgeted amount. I talk to myself, a lot! I recently had the realisation that I can have a whole conversation in my head, get out everything I want to say to someone, without actually saying it! Who knew the internal v...
