It’s an insomination!

16 May 2012 Mummyhood

Seriously dude, who the hell decided insomnia was something that could exist? It’s 1.57a.m on a school night, and here I sit. Awake. Eyelids stuck open. Brain on overdrive. Body exhausted. Thankyouverymuchlyinsomnia. Not. I had a ride in an ambulance earlier. I figure that’s what this insomnia shit is about tonight. BJ7 fell down the [...]

1. I am sitting here surrounded by kids. They are sending me crazy and I think this is their plan for the day…. BJ7 is a little hypo.. I’m trying to figure out why. I would like to muzzle him, but that’s against the law. But oh me gosh it’s tempting! The PS3 is on [...]

“Some Boys Kiss Me, Some Boys Hug Me…..”

8 January 2012 The Inbetween

If you don’t know the song, it’s “Material Girl” by Madonna. And the admission that she lives in a material world and is a material girl. The realisation is, money doesn’t make the world go round. People do. And possessions won’t jump to life and save you if you’re dying in a fire, or drowning [...]

Resolutions are for Pussies

2 January 2012 The Inbetween

Words are for awesome people. And I’m awesome, so obviously I don’t make resolutions. Strangely in the blogosphere I had never noticed anyone else choosing words for the year instead of resolutions. But this year is different, which is great! I’ve found quite a few blogs with words instead of resolutions. They’re awesome, like me [...]

Footsteps in the night….

11 January 2010 The Inbetween

Finally! Husband heard them too! Many many times since we’ve lived here I have heard footsteps running down our hallway… they sound exactly the same as when B4 runs down the hallway [his room is at one end, ours is at the other]. So I have always put them down to BJ4 being up and [...]
