So a bump and a bang greeted us as we headed upstairs to bed last night. For the first time ever M had rolled right out of bed and got a right scare. In an apparent coincidence E emerged not long after, at 1.15am, just to have an early morning chat with her parents. SheContinue reading “DAY 154 – 18 August 2020”

So my birthday weekend might be over but we launch straight into a very exciting week as M officially started nursery for the first time today. His taster sessions must have gone well and he kept his true naughtiness well hidden so off he trotted.Thank goodness for the kids as Mammy and Daddy just didContinue reading “DAY 153 – 17 August 2020”

Well dear reader you won’t be surprised to hear that after all of the excitement of yesterday, today was a far more relaxed and generally uneventful day. This overcast weather isn’t helping either and looks set to continue for a while yet.Sundays should really be a celebration of the end of a successful week andContinue reading “DAY 152 – 16 August 2020”

What a brilliant day! Birthdays when you are a kid are so exciting, so full of wonder and happy memories. As you get older sadly that excitement seems to start wearing off a little. Basically the bigger the fire risk caused by your candles, the tougher it is to get excited about becoming another yearContinue reading “DAY 151 – 15 August 2020”

Happy Birthday Eve to me! The last day of my early 30s 😂 was a good one as was always going to be the case with it falling on a Friday. A nursery trip in the morning and Grandma’s house on the afternoon left me #RemoteWorking in virtual silence but as usual the darlings made their presence known both beforeContinue reading “DAY 150 – 14 August 2020”

Well today was another of those strange days where I convinced myself from the moment I woke up that it was a different day of the week. Sadly for me I was determined it was Friday so you can imagine my disappointment when I kept remembering the truth. I’ve also been toying with the idea ofContinue reading “DAY 149 – 13 August 2020”

Hump day just about over and fingers crossed we’ll speed up through the end of the week and into my birthday weekend. Today has definitely not been a good day for my home city and bless E who heard about the train derailment and said she really hoped Grandma wasn’t on board.Today was all aboutContinue reading “DAY 148 – 12 August 2020”

We’re having no messing around tonight as some of us need to get some shut eye. After the kids headed off early last night, inevitably they woke up early as in fact shortly after the joy of a car alarm woke us up at 4am, my little boy was up and about ready to startContinue reading “DAY 147 – 11 August 2020”

Well after the overexcitement of yesterday from which I for one am still recovering, today was incredibly boring by comparison. The kids went off to Grandmas, Steph into the office and I was back on the #RemoteWorking. There’s something about weekdays which make them far less interesting. Oh yeh, that’s work. Anyway I’ve tried to rustle upContinue reading “DAY 146 – 10 August 2020”

A day of contrasting emotions. Sundays are supposed to be relaxing whether kicking back at home or off doing things you don’t have time to do on the other 6 days of the week. They are definitely not meant to be emotional rollercoasters where you find yourself covered in blood before midday. One of the moreContinue reading “DAY 145 – 9 August 2020”
