What do you think?

We often write about our friends in real life that ‘just don’t get it’ and it started me thinking about why.
I do believe that this whole experience has changed me for the better. I would like to think there was a part of me that was always like this, but now I think about everything I [...]

I can’t believe it

Please, please don’t mock. I am beside myself with excitement.
I thought he would never ever do any more shows in England. He just announced two dates at the O2 arena, London in December.
My heart was racing as 10 a.m. arrived this morning, the tickets went on sale. My fingers have never worked a keyboard as fast before. [...]

A new era

If we’d have carried on with treatment as quickly as possible, I would have started down regulating today. It feels a bit weird not to be doing something when I know I can. It’s new territory for me, this self imposed wait. Hopefully it goes quickly.
So in honour of this new era, I decided to turn myself [...]

But the thing I want most [...]

It’s all about me…

I have been tagged by 2 lovely ladies, Lisa and Emily, so here goes.
4 things I did 10 years ago (1998 )

Moved from the North East of England back to my home town (Blackburn) after breaking up with my footballer fiance.
Sat outside a hospital all evening in my car, looking longingly at the windows. Knowing my 2 hour old [...]

Confessions of a married woman

I think it’s fair to say that all this IF crapola has had an impact on our bedroom jiggery pokery. Most of the time I just can’t be ar*sed, I’d rather be sleeping or watching tv. Sad, but Mr Big Time Charlie and I have a laugh about it. So cue a conversation in Bee [...]

Looking Back

I have been thinking about our wedding recently. Maybe it is because we have been choosing the album photos and also the DVD should be with us soon.
My mind took me back to the time of the day when we had just sat down to eat. We were married, I felt great and I really [...]

Just the day for it

It’s fabulous day for sitting in the sunshine and watching my beloved football team.
As long as I can remember, I loved football. I used to go to the games with my Dad and sit in the old wooden stands, watching the fans singing on the terraces. I have laughed, cried and have memories to last a [...]

New image

Wahey the en-suite bathroom is now finished. I am really pleased with it.
I forgot to take a picture of the ‘before’ but I remembered just after. Here’s what it was like ‘in between’. Pale blue walls, pink carpet a white toilet, sink, shower and black and white tiles.

Mr Big Time Charlie painted the walls white first, ripped [...]

Small things amuse little minds

Look what just arrived!! 

I am so excited….maybe between the gym and this I will look at little less lumpy this summer.
