OK Feel Bad Now

Sheesh I knew there was something i kept forgetting to do !!!!. Hello Blogging World sorry for my inexplicable absensce I think I was transported off by aliens..I will explain another time with another post I think..Christmas was fabish..what with 84 year old Grandma's opinions on my child rearing techniques and long lost friends coming to visit..(career woman no children and perfectly groomed hair). Spiritual and peaceful it was not. The kids thought it was all hiliarous to just keep throwing wrapping paper all over the living room ALL DAY !!! and totally ignore all of Father Christmas's well thoughtout and inspirational gifts much to my heart sinking misery. I believe there are still unopened gifts in their bedrooms that I shall be rewrapping next year and giving to them again on the off chance they might actually be interested in them. The New Year has started fantastically busy as to expected and I am still loving college. I have even managed to impress the tutor with a google app on my iphone though I did get several filthy looks of "teachers pet" from my fellow students while I was doing it..Clearly they were just peeved that I had found out the tax codes for 2010/11 so quickly and they still had to do it for homework.

Will post far more regularly from now on !!!

Troublesum Troubles

Its seems my inability to say no has got me in to trouble once again...We have ended up with Grandma for Christmas and while my head tells me this is not a good idea and will end in disastor, my heart tells me I have no choice because life is short and to be honest I am lucky to still have her around. I mean who knows what next year will bring though she will mostly likely out live us all. In the meantime the kids remain blissfully unaware of how Christmas probably isn't going to go exactly the way they would like it too. ie pjs till 4pm then clean ones on, no bathing, breakfast, lunch and christmas dinner in front of the TV/PS3 or nakey and thats just Pauls plans for the day...At least I have the blessing of living in my beautful 4 yes you read right my 4 bedroomed house so we can shut her in a bedroom and leave her asleep for as long as possible on Christmas morning. Having said all that I am still really looking forward to Christmas at home this year...Two ovens, a dishwasher and no turkey to be seen within 10 foot of my kitchen things should go smoothly...
