Laying on the limo

I am going to the Lake District on Saturday for the Phoenix 5 25th Anniversary Walk we are going for two days as we did for the 20th anniversary and I have volunteered to drive because I am not drinking at all obviously so it makes sense? The thing is I have had the idea […]

Sporty Reagan

Reagan joined and after school which is not unusual she loves the thought of putting herself forward to get noticed but today her after school club was a rounders club? She was very tired when she got home but was really enthusiastic to roll me all about it and how she and Jess won too. […]

A letter to la Porter

Lincoln has been talking about money and budgets and wants to know about jobs and mortgages and tonight he asked his mom if he could write a letter to his headteacher Mrs la Porter because he would like to learn these life skills as well as the normal school curriculum. Below is his letter… Hello […]

Falling from Grace

Jamie told me a story of how Reagan reacted when she saw Lincoln was with Mommy when she turned up at horse riding “What’s he doing here?” and questioning if he was Mommy’s favourite? There is no favouritism from Mommy or me but it is so difficult to handle Reagan’s moods and she can turn […]

TMS & Gable Trusses

Always a great day when I can spend the day in the garden listening to #BBCTMS and even better if I get to build a bit more of my shed which is what I did. Today I decided to use my last sheet of OSB to cover half of the RH end of the building […]

The birds and the bees

My day was governed by a trip to Stoke to get Jamie’s car windscreen fixed only to find when I’d driven all the way there that I was a week early ffs! Drove home and rebooked it for Thursday next week and this meant I could go with Lincoln to gymnastics and visit Grandad as […]

Weather resistant?

I want to get to a stage where I can chip away at building my shed but each stage I have got to since erecting the walls requires something else doing before I can move on. Today, I got all the roof joists I made yesterday fitted but was short of a couple so intend […]

The price of impatience

Lincoln actually played with Halle Orchestra at the the Bridgewater Hall Manchester, he likes the Saxophone and has stuck with it to the point that he got to do this amazing thing today. He want to give up the guitar even though he got a B+ for it this week but he prefers Sax so […]

No tickets

Lincoln, if only you could see how upset your Mom is that she can’t come to watch you play with the Halle Orchestra tomorrow after successfully rearranging her whole day to allow her to go to Manchester only to find they had sold out the concert! I have suggested that she calls the box office […]

Got ’em!

At 10am nothing happened I was supposed to get an email supplying a link to allow me to buy tickets to Wembley to see the Jaguars play the Broncos but nothing no email…panic set in, what do I do? A note appeared on the Jags site saying there was a technical issue and the pre-sale […]
