It was my birthday yesterday. It was a mundane sort of day. Work was more hectic than usual as I’m also now covering for someone who is away sick, and when only 5 people work for the entire business, you really feel that extra work. But I need the money and am lucky enough […]

Birthday Fun with Balloon Time
You may have seen me mention online, but it was Dexter’s birthday yesterday. I’m now the proud mother of two boys aged 20 and 11, although to this day, I maintain I don’t look nearly old enough. I told Dexter, perhaps somewhat naïvely, that he could do what ever he liked on […]
Tween Life
Dexter is 11 next week. I know this because not only did I give birth to him, so I’m pretty sure I’ll always remember the date, but in the three months running up to his birthday, Dexter is always there to remind me. Every. Single. Day. I kid you not. I have […]

Silent Sunday: Happy 70th Dad

B-Day!
I couldn’t let the day pass without mentioning the fact that today, it is officially my fortieth birthday. I have complained about this day coming for long enough now, so thank you to those of you who were kind enough to listen. Both of you. And now B-Day has arrived! This momentous, defining, monumental day […]
