Weather…or not?

Today although a tad windy it was a bit warmer and it made us feel better as we trundle out of April into May tomorrow and for me it is a tonic when the weather improves. We walk together now every night “getting our steps in” but it is so great to spend half an […]

Hard to motivate

I am finding it so hard to be motivated to do anything right now least of all blog, my job isuch a huge part of my life and my new vocation is not lighting my fire at all! I have just spent a whole work day treading water because there does not seem to be […]

Reagan turns 14

I threw some darts hitting a couple of ton eighties and drank a  couple of beers which relaxed me […]

It’s 9:30

Reagan is changing in so many ways but the teenager aspect of the whole thing is infuriating the entitlement and lack of respect is beyond tolerable! No matter what you ask her to do, she never just does it she always says I’ll do it in a minute…then never does until you get mad at […]

Not one call

Did nowt today, I should have done but chose to walk with Jamie to the doctors at 07:30 and go and see me dad until 1pm and then I wasted the rest of the day. It’s 10pm and my phone has not rung once…
