And I am already panicking about the school gate, so decided to come here to get it off my chest before I explode.

I still feel like an alien amidst all those people.

I wish I did not have to go there everyday.

One. More.Week.

Thanks for listening.

My first Award!

In Uncategorized on July 1, 2009 at 11:35 am

The lovely fellow Mummy blogger Emily from Maternal Tales from the South Coast has just given me this award:

honestscrapaward

I feel so happy , not only for receiving an award in the first place but because this particular one is very close to home, as the main reason I decided to write this blog anonymously (well, semi anonymously) was so I could be completely honest and open, and really write about things which affect my life without fear of being scrutinised by the likes of in-laws, neighbours and frienemies!

Emily thanks so much, and as the tradition is to pass it on, I would like to offer it to my lovely Mum-e who has has a rough last week and the fabĀ  Confused Take That fan!!

Michael Jackson RIP

In Me, Sad on July 1, 2009 at 10:47 am

Right, I know it is old news already but I had to write something about it as I still can’t believe it has indeed happened.

For the past couple of days it has been such an overdose of tributes, on the radio, TV, newspapers, Twitter, it is everywhere, but still it has not downed on me that we will not be reading about any more of Jacko’s antics, to hear any new songs, or watch his new video with such curiosity/expectation to see what cutting edge dance move he will come up with next.

I am really sad, not only for the talent lost, and for the way he went but because it seems to me like he went as a sad person who never in his life had true happiness and that makes me feel bad for him.

On a nicer note, HOW WONDERFUL IS THIS WEATHER????

I have been enjoying my morningly beach walks and picking The Beanie up from school and going straight back to the beach for an ice cream and yesterday even a swim!

My guests have enjoyed themselves and they were good, so not too stressed this timeĀ  :) ))

I hope I get to have some rest next week though, I know I am on a high now as the weather has been good, had a great weekend last week, but my body is saying “not for long!”

Did I mention how hard it has been staying on the diet this week? Oh I won’t even go there, but at least I have not put any on.

Blame the Pimms.

BTW this morning I found a very unusual bug in my garden, if anyone knows what it is can you please tell me, I am very curious about it, as it looks very unusual!

Here goes a piccie or two!

Cheerio!
