Back on my size 11’s

Yes, I admit it: I have hugely big, get-out-my-way-or-I’ll-stand-on-you, squash-you-flat, showboat sized feet. I figure I’m almost 6 foot tall though so any smaller and I’d fall over! All that aside I’m back on them and feeling much better. Steve isn’t. Yup, he’s been in the bathroom most of the night and has taken up [...]

Back in the saddle…. almost

Thanks for all your well wishes, I’m on the mend and very grateful that my Crohn’s seems to be sorting itself out by itself. I’m seeing my gastro guy next week just to be sure but my blood tests have come back ok which is such a relief!
I had a very rough time when I [...]

A break in our scheduled programming…

Firstly my apologies to the 5 ladies who entered my competition, I’ve got your prizes ready to go but am really sick today and am unable to get to the post office. I’ll try and get there as soon as I can but can’t be far from the bathroom at the mo!
We’ve just got Joshie [...]

We had a great weekend with [...]

Counting my blessings…

Me and Joshie are learning to count together (well I already know how to count but if you saw me balancing my chequebook you might beg to differ), but this was a conversation we had yesterday…
Me: “One, two… and what comes next?”Joshie: “Four, three, yellow”Me: “Are you sure?”Joshie: “Meemee, meemee…”Me: “Yes sweetie?”Joshie: “Truck”
I think [...]

Monsters everywhere…

Yup, the demon next door is at it again. This time it was the lid of a bottle of V8 juice (which we don’t drink but can no doubt be found in their recycling bin) thrown onto the garage roof while Steve was inside. Then while he was weedeating the front we had a paintbrush [...]
