Cozy weekend

Date August 17, 2008

I’m about to head off to bed, but I wanted to blog. It’s been a nice weekend, I achieved a lot and I feel calm. Just finished skating, which was great. Also did ‘Learn to skate’ classes on Saturday- which were full of kids and amusing, at least for me. Also got  my computer fixed [...]

Winter nestling time

Date April 19, 2008

It’s strange what we do when the weather changes- I didn’t really notice until tonight. It may seem to outsiders that we’ve been a little less social in the last few week, but I blame the weather.

Just a quick note to say- happy birthday to me.

Dinner?!!

Date October 8, 2006

For the next four weeks BMB has an office job working nine to five. Which means that I have to cook dinner. This is a bit of a scary prospect- I’m no cook and I really need to control what I am eating. So this is an opportunity and a bit of an education. I’ve [...]

What to say

Date August 20, 2006

I go through weeks of not wanting to blog anything, today there is so much I want to blog about I don’t know where to start. That doesn’t mean it’s at all particularly interesting, but there’s a lot I’d like to share. So I might put down a summary and see how I go- I [...]

Sick Kitty

Date April 21, 2006

Rather than tell you about my tiring and depressing week back at work- I’m going to be a mum for a little while. I guess if I had real kids my blog would feature them- as some of my favourite blogs do, as a mum to furkids- I don’t do it as often. This week [...]

So many holidays or Is that it?

Date April 16, 2006

One thing many people, teachers and non- teachers alike say about my profession is “at least you have all those holidays”. What? Holidays? I’m sorry, I don’t believe it is a great big perk of my profession. This time off is often spent marking and planning, or doing things we’re unable to do, because of [...]

Of friends and food

Date April 9, 2006

What a great start to my holiday week and a bit. After the fear of the Friday afternoon’s fire, Frank, Oreon and my little brother came over for drinks and pizza, homemade of course. We sat around and talked, had a good time, gossiped and watched the teev. It’s nice just to hang out with [...]

Putting it all in perspective

Date April 8, 2006

To say I’ve had a bad week would be an understatement, there has been tears, yelling and gnashing of teeth. It’s been awful. Not kid related at all- mainly to do with what I’ve got to do, in what time and the support (or in some cases, lack thereof) I am getting.
