My temper is a real problem.
R has reached that stage now where lying down to have nappies changed and sitting still to eat is all too too boring. So you lie him down and he’s off. Problem is, he gets his nappy off and then motors away and I’m terrified he’ll hurt himself or something [...]

How disconcerting is it when you ring a friend and her husband answers, only to tell you when you ask if she’s there that they’ve split up and the lady of the house is out looking at flats.
Thank god it’s amicable (thus far). Cynicism? Probably. Judging everyone else by my own paranoid and argumentative standards [...]

OK, I admit it. I’m hooked. There is no other Bond for me. Daniel Craig is the best damn thing to happen to that franchise. What a bloody marvel. He’s the sexiest thing on the screen right now. All I can say is that I’m glad it was dark in the cinema. The story is, [...]

Got a call from N last night, who tells me that she and B are pregnant again after having unprotected sex ONCE since E was born. Bearing in mind they needed 2 rounds of IVF to get preg with E, I call that astounding. You can tell they’re shell-shocked. 15 months between the babies and [...]

I was expecting the day from hell, original model, yesterday and instead got a Good Housekeeping, Garden & Home, Technicolor perfection day the like of which I have never known.
I think that’s what’s so unsettling about babies - and life in general - that you can’t count on anything being what it seems.
In a way [...]

Holy God. 4am. Picture the scene - fed R at midnight, couldn’t get back to sleep, dozed off I guess around 3 to be woken by howling at 10 to 4. Went down worried there was something wrong and there was. There was too much DARK for him to play and some fool had put [...]

Yah, I’m going to Slimming World.
I decided this on Sunday at about 12.15 in the changing rooms at Dorothy Perkins when my slinky friend B asked me to go out and get her a size 10 as the 12 she was trying on was too big. Now, she had her sprogger at the same time [...]

Haaaa! The joys of liking the small things in life…. well, actually, this is pretty big. The APs have offered to take R one Saturday evening a month so the Husband and I can go out! See a film! Have some dinner! Aaaaand.. maybe even have some sex later on!! (Steady now).
This is fantastic. A get [...]

Perhaps not, but then, perhaps!
The facts are that I love him almost to distraction but I’m still stuck on the hook of hatred. Sounds mental, doesn’t it.
This weekend was good, because I finally managed to fight my way out from under the bell-jar of oppressive air that has been dragging me down for weeks. In [...]

Just back from London, having been there for work. I’d had to leave R with husband when he was ill, which I hated to do. But there’s an upside - he’s much better today. Although the distance was enforced and I had no choice but to go it served a good purpose - stopped me [...]
