Sledging!

Christmas Night Out...

You have no idea how much wine we had consumed....

I was 35 yesterday. meh. I feel old today and look it! Getting up for school after the holiday was really hard, thought I might sneak a nap in this morning but no, my neighbours opposite decided today would be a good day to take down their front wall. with a sledgehammer. brick by brick. slowly. It was like water torture, all you could do was wait for the next thump. I decided that if I had a headache and felt grumpy I might as well just plough on with things that needed doing, so I have washed up, cleaned the kitchen, cleaned out the dishwasher and put a fresh load on, put washing in the machine twice, shampooed the dog and trimmed his face, shampooed the lounge carpet, fed the chickens - no eggs, they are not like this cold weather and I'm not enjoying trying to get the ice out of their bowls each morning, poor things are so thirsty by the morning.

Jon is taking me to dinner tomorrow night at the best restaurant in town, it wasnt open on my birthday and we are having dinner at my mums tonight, also on Tuesday we will have been together 7 months! Its gone so quick! Some bits of the relationship are so easy, we laugh and talk so much in in many ways we are incredibly similar, yet in others poles apart. We do want to live together but I'm aware that he sees it as us moving in with him as he will take financial responsibility for us and sees it as his house even though it will be our home where as I see him as joining our family, I worry we both expect the other to change, we both joke about it but it does worry me. We're both set in our ways, him because he has never lived the family/kids lifestyle and me because I've lived that lifestyle all of my adult life!

Had the same cold for almost six weeks now, yet its not an infection so no point taking antibiotics, bleuughhhh.

Me as Mother Christmas!

It was great and better than it looks in the photos, weirdly enough I'm not big on Christmas but I love doing this each year, the kids are really into it and the dad we used this year to be santa was brillient, couldnt have done it better! We asked the parents when they booked tickets what their kids were into so Santa could be 'in the know', santa forgot at one point when asking what one little boy liked, so I suggested he liked GoGo toys, I had my sheet in my hand, his head spun round and glared at me in disbelief "How did you know?" he demanded angrily. Instead of amazing him with Santas incredible powers of knowing all the children of the world, he just think its all a conspiracy, ho hum...!

Hi guys, sunday night, been a lovely weekend, Jon and I tried to make a lemon cake today, dont think we beat it enough as it sank but it still tasted amazing! Saw UP, omg, I cried three times! Got Judes hair cut but he looks a lot like Julie Andrews in the sound of music unless we gel it...

Have the school fayre this saturday, I'm playjing mother christmas again, must go and get my costume prepared, promise to provide pictures!

huh, where did my post about friday go?

ok, Jons ex kicked off about us going to her nieces birthday party, Jon is their God parent and Jon, Jude and I were invited. She decided for various reasons that we shouldnt come, one being that her new boyfriend of two weeks wouldnt like it! Jon always wants to please people and I guess after 10 years of saying yes to her or her stropping, he did at first until I pointed out a list of reasons why it was out of order for her to even ask. A long 'discussion' then went on by email and text as I was too angry to speak to him, he also was in contact with her about the weekend, it was at the point that she refered to my son as 'your girlfriend and her kid' that I lost the plot, say what you like but dont bring my children into it. Theres a lot that was said, a lot she lied about but at the end of the day we stood our ground, stayed polite and calm and the party went without upset. I've always been respectful about her but now the gloves are off.

oh you guys...! I didnt know anyone was reading!

well, Jon and I got over the weekend, I'm not going to go into all the details but it made us stronger and the party went well, thats all thats needed I guess?

I'm sat here off my head on painkillers as I put my neck out making a sandwich, yup, a sandwich, hardly a high risk activity but it just went into spasm as I buttered the bread, still hurts but with the amount of tablets I took an hour ago, I just dont caaaaaarrrrrreeee! I'm off for a lie down...

The End

I'm not going to blog anymore.

I will certainly continue to read all my favourite blogs but I'm just too busy with my life to write anymore, I dont have the patience to write anything good! Jon and I have been together 5 months and are planning our future together, we want a baby together and with two kids, a dog and a cat, 3 rabbits, chickens and his two cats we're going to be busy! If I start blogging again I'll be in touch but for now its thankyou and goodbye x

I'm over the flu, just have been left with a cold, today is the first day I dont have severe sinus pain so I'm hoping I'm on the mend but....of course the kids both now have it, its pouring with rain and the cat decided he wouldnt go out last night so he crapped all over the bath rug again and started to pee in the corner of my room at 6am, I heard him scratching around and threw him outside before he did more than a tiny puddle.
