It’s the last day of November, the last day of NaBloPoMo. I have enjoyed it overall. The task of blogging every day has been positive and has got me into the mind frame of writing, something which I loved years ago but got out of the habit of doing. There have been days where I … Continue reading

#NaBloPoMo Day 29 – Hair dye
Tonight I dyed my hair; it had got drastic. The roots were no longer roots, but the top part of my head. It was the week after we moved house that I last dyed it, so early August. Nearly 4 months ago! My excuses for my sorry state of hair include: mass hair loss (including … Continue reading
#NaBloPoMo Day 28 – Cheese induced dreams
Last night Dale and I both had bizarre, vivid dreams. In the past, we’ve both woken thinking that Paige is in the bed, but last night Dale woke to ask me where she was, as he thought she was in his toolbox at work! Then I dreamt that I’d lost my wedding ring. In the … Continue reading
#NaBloPoMo Day 27 – A nice end to a lovely weekend
I was on the phone to my friend C tonight, talking about her wedding plans for next year. She started to say ‘I’ve got something to ask you’…I felt my heart skip a beat as I was dreading being asked to be a bridesmaid. I knew that she’d already sorted them out, but you never … Continue reading
NaBloPoMo Day 26 – Visitors and bedtimes
Bedtimes have gone really smoothly recently. Paige may be grouchy in the early evening as she’s tired, or cries after the bath because she just wants to have her milk and go to bed, but that’s nothing! When we have visitors, although we keep to the same routine, it doesn’t go well. At all. Tonight … Continue reading
#NaBloPoMo Day 25 – A blog for the sake of blogging
This truly is a blog for the sake of blogging. A blog written only for the fact that I’m doing NaBloPoMo and don’t want to fail. I started writing a blog earlier, but didn’t get very far into it. Then I was intent on getting to bed in decent time and then I forgot. To … Continue reading
#NaBloPoMo Day 24 – I’m a Celebrity, get me out of here! (meme)
I’m a Celebrity, get me out of here! I have been tagged in an ‘I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out Of Here’ inspired meme by Bessytweets . I’ve only watched snippets of it, I really don’t like the bugs and I hear that all you really see is Sinitta screaming! 1. What one thing about … Continue reading
NaBloPoMo Day 23 – Extreme Couponing
Last week a friend told me to check out a very American, trashy TV programme called Extreme Couponing on Really. I found it repeated at some silly time in the morning, and it has sat there for a few days waiting to be watched. We stuck it on tonight as there wasn’t a lot on. … Continue reading
#NaBloPoMo Day 22 – The start of weaning
On Sunday, we decided to start giving Paige some food to play with. She’s five and a half months old, she’s holding herself quite well and can get things into her mouth to chew on very well, so we felt it was time. We knew that we wanted to go down the baby led weaning … Continue reading
#NaBloPoMo Day 21 – A baby brain incident
Off I trotted to Tesco this morning. I managed to remember the shopping list and my bags, had all the stuff that Paige might need and the vouchers to double up on clothing so that we could stock up on vests etc in the next size up, ready for madam’s next growth spurt. Paige fell … Continue reading
