Still no Pictures

Still not able to post pictures. Which is frustrating as the biggest joy of having a Blog is being able to share pics of the kids and things we have been up to. I think tonight I may if I have time see if I can get around to sorting out posting from my laptop at home, time allowing, and as I have some new stamps and pens to play with it may not happen tonight!

A Long Time

Since I posted - due to being unable to upload any photos and feeling that without photos a blog page is just not the same!

Today I decided that even a paragraph would be worth writing even without pictures.

New house was moved into on the 17th of August, am still back and forth to my Luton house at the moment as the sale on that is going along at a backwards walking snails pace.

Trashed the side of my car - which I thankfully have had repaired, OH took two of the kids to see England and lots of other things have happened too!!!

Holidays..................

We went to Bognor for our Holiday this year - I have been wanting to post for ages but havent been able to as the Photo upload just wouldnt work - never thought about using my dell mini laptop DOH!!

Manic Sunday

We always have a busy weekend but recently they have been even busieras we try and sort my house out to put it back on the Market.

Phil worked himself into the ground Saturday and I wasn't far behind and as a result we have had a quiet but still busy Sunday.
The difference to the garden is amazing. Hopefully I will get agents round in a couple of weeks.

No Time

Even to post about Lucy's Birthday - now how bad is that! So rewind to 3rd of July for updates.

3rd July - TAKE THAT!

Phil bought me Take That tickets for my Christmas pressie - was really exciting and we set off to go there via our house, to measure up - which was great fun and I noticed that the house had the same tiles as my current house - must be meant to be :) as I love them and picked them myself.

Then we went to Ikea and did some planning shopping - ate Haddock Chips and Peas and headed for Wembley.

I have never been to a big concert before! But it was great - although I would have liked them to be a bit closer as they were very much like tiny little pin heads - but it was great, very good - very entertaining - not too hot - and once we sat down very comfy - standing is not something a 41 year old lady can do for too long when she is being pushed and bashed and jostled about!!

Saturday we did house things and Olivia went home for a BBQ which meant Phil and Jake and I just crashed and watched TV, we did watch a film but I had already seen it so I spent an age wrapping up presents.

Lucy's Birthday!!

She was at her dad's in the morning so we went to pick out a NEW SOFA! How exciting!!

We did find one we loved in DFS so we have ordered it - will post pictures once blogger decides to work - VISTA and blogger - don't get on!!

We only had cupcakes and presents for her - but she was happy with her DS and sat and played with it happily while Euan and Olivia argued over her Littlest Pet Shops!

Better with Pictures - Some on VISTA!

Tut Tut

No posts for over a week again!

Been an odd week. Was full of good things but I didnt have the energy to take them in as I have been exhausted for most of it!

Lucy went to Dell Farm on a school residential trip - so I spent a lot of time and money getting together all the bits she needed. She skipped off quite happily on Monday and on Thursday I had a postcard to tell me she had made friends with a Turkey!!!

She came back yesterday(Friday) safe and sound and said she had missed me. Euan was desparate to see her Thursday but by Friday was playing it very cool!

I have spent most of the week feeling miserable - and being totally worn out - I think I need a week at home and someone to do the school runs for me - any takers?

On a positive note we found schools and got places for both Lucy and Euan in Hemel, Jake had a week at M&S which he seemed to really enjoy and this weekend Olivia is over. I am stuck in work at the moment but about to leave to recover Jake's Duvet from my washing machine and head back to my Hemel Home for he weekend!

I also ordered a 3G Iphone but no idea if I will get it - yet - I would say SHHHHH don't tell Phil - but A) I already told him and B) he reads this so if he didnt know he would now!

Thank Goodness

The trauma that was going on next last is about to come to an end. I won't go into detail but it was enough to make me doubt anything anymore. When you are questioned about anything to do with your children whom you love to pieces well it makes you feel very sad and upset.

Been a lovely week other than that - although we are all extremely tired. Jake and Phil came up Tuesday to see us, and Lucy, Phil and Jake played Game of Life.



Jake won - he always seems to and I think it is because Phil was talking to me and Lucy was messing and Jake was playing with the spinner a bit longer than he should have been on quite a few turns LOL, never mind - they all enjoyed it!

Last night Phil went to Quiz night and we watched the Footie. Got bored half way through though as they won 6-0 in the end! and Jake took over the remote. Lucy was up half way through the night and Euan woke up in a bad mood too. We were supposed to have Lucy's Cousin on a sleep over tonight but Lucy didnt feel well this morning when I sent her into school. Hope she is okay - I did give her Calpol but if I wasnt needed at work would have kept her off!!

Other than that we have a good weekend ahead planned. Friday Phil will be out till 7 or 8 and then Saturday we have a house viewing and then Alex's - which the kids just love!! Sunday back to the gardening! ARGH :)
