Apologies for the quietness around here lately. I’ve lost my mojo. If anyone finds it please point it back in my direction!

I’ve copied this post from an internet forum where I have many good friends. It basically saves me typing it all out again!
Well the speech therapist & preschool support specialist arrived at 9.30am and were here until 12.40pm! I am exhausted now but Katie is at playgroup for the afternoon and I have a chance [...]

On my photography course this week I am asked to take two pictures of someone, somewhere or something that you really like. This has really got me thinking. I have been trying hard to think which two things are worthy of being at the top of that list and of course which two things are good to [...]
Autumn Days; a memory

Sorry, I can’t seem to leave Autumn alone! I just remembered a song that we used to sing at school. Anyone who has been a school child in Britain will probably know it. To me it sums up all of those things I have been talking about. I actually had a tear in my eye [...]

Robyns tests went well. The radiologist said there does seem to be a slight hernia which would explain alot of her symptoms. We are just waiting on another test now and then a follow up appointment. She was a superstar having the test done. She had to drink quite alot of the barium and said [...]

So after thinking I’d never get the DSLR that I was dreaming of before my OU course starts I am so chuffed to announce that I have got a Sony a200!
It has been made possible by my wonderful, supportive family. I am so grateful to them!
I’ve already been out taking pictures and I am loving it already. All [...]
Learning new things

I have been thinking about enrolling on a course to learn a new skill for a while. I’ve been teaching myself to sew but the sewing courses that are around are not at a convenient time for me so I got looking at the Open Universtity courses.
Lately I have been very inspired by the photography of some good [...]

Apologies for my absence from blogging. I have been well and truly sucked into Farm Town, an application on Facebook.
I struggled to see the attraction at first but persevered. Now I have a well planted farm and I am finding myself spending every spare minute tending to my crops and earning money so I can [...]
It’s been far too long since I updated my blog. Apologies. It’s been all change here recently so I hope to update a bit more regularly.
Anthony is 2 weeks into a 13 weeks New Deal training scheme. He is currently at a training centre every day but is waiting for a work placement to come up. [...]

Not just any old Monday morning… its Robyn’s 1st day back at school after half term and day number 1 of my diet (again!).
This Wednesday is Ash Wednesday. In the past I’ve given up the usual chocolate, crisps and sweets etc for Lent but this year I’m going to try and use it to lose weight. [...]
