No seriously, it’s a blog intervention. Long Overdue. And I’m really happy with. HUGE thanks to Stacey Corrin. She was uber reasonably priced and sooooo quick to do this – took us (Jane will like that use of “us” – the ‘Royal’ us, ahem) less than 24 hours from start to finish. I knew what I wanted looks wise and she even did me a logo.
What shall I christen this reborn blog with?
My dilemma over whether it’s ok to have work contacts and clients on my personal FB account – it’s hampering my urge to sometimes write that I don’t always feel that I and/or my team are appreciated in our work and that it needs addressing. But I hate those conversations, so I don’t know how to say “Look Dude, You’re Yanking Our Chains”. I’m just not good at putting other people under the metaphorical bus. But I’m going to get better at it. Grrrrrrr
To wonder about what Ninja Dude and I will do whilst Too Cool For School Dude and Lovely Bloke go to the Natural History Museum for a sleepover next month.
To want to just stop time – the boys are growing so quickly. They both have their own rooms now, but still sleep together. And literally together – curled up, snuggled in and sharing the same metre of bed space together – despite it being a bigger bed than Lovely Bloke and I sleep in. And we have a kingsize bed, so it really is big. I wonder when they will stop sleeping together. I wonder how Ninja Dude will cope – it’s all he’s ever known. He’s always slept with us and then, officially in his own toddler bed – but Too Cool would get in with him in the small space…. I know it’s a matter of time, but still.
My feelings about Comic Relief and Team Honk? How I am bursting with pride at the work Penny Alexander, Tanya Barrow and Annie Spratt are doing.
My near obsession with www.pencourage.com – it’s a client site but I can’t stop reading it. I apologise formally to everyone who I have introduced this to, that’s spent far too much time on there.
Feelings of disappointment with broadchurch. It’s the difficult second album, isn’t it?
Our thinking about which car to go for next. We want to have a 7 seater big car. Well Lovely Bloke actually wants a VW transporter, but we’re not having one. So the 7 seater is on the list. We transport 5 children regularly, so it’s practical. But do we buy a car because we are in a social circle where once or twice a week it would be useful? And then it’s onto the idea that if we are going to go to France once or twice a year, we do need a big boot, but the rest of the year we can do a rucksack because that’s all we need to go to my Mum and Dad ooop North. Or do we have an Audi TT as we’ve wanted one for ages? Or will we go for an all terrain A3?
The sadness I feel when Too Cool tells me that I am an embarrassing Mummy. I get really choked up. Mind you, I’m now typing one handed as the other arm has to stay clamped around him. Go figure.
Which shall it be?
