Not a happy pussy ?

Fasting & Abstinence

Well, my New Year's Resolutions are going SO badly that they have all made the shortlist for Lent......giving up crisps is a leading contender although there are other possibilities:
do more (exercise that is)
eat less (bad things)
look more glamorous & wear high heels (hmmmm - I really DO need to do this)
be even nicer to my children (difficult)
sell more cards (vital)
get more clients (even more vital !)
HELP - I can't possibly do all of them

has anyone eaten a cold fish finger ?

There always seems to be great anticipation for pancakes in our house which is great - we are already planning what we are going to have tomorrow. I love them but kitters & flicks want chocolate, maple syrup, lemon sugar etc etc etc - as a dutiful mother I cook them - eat the ones that are NOT perfect which often amount to more than I would actually choose to eat THEN I have to eat the ones they leave because they are full - by that time they are cold, I shouldn't do it, really but I can't throw them away......has anyone eaten a cold fish finger rather than put in the bin or is that just me ?

Only 4 days to go

Still time to buy cards for your nearest & dearest xxxxxxxx

Frozen Rain ?

I don't understand how you get frozen rain.......why doesn't it just snow ?. Snow much prettier, more fun & less dangerous !

what's love got to do with it ?

......don't forget, it will be here soon.

When can I leave school ?

Flicks Age 5 "Mum, when can I leave school ?"
Me " when you are 16.....what are you going to do when you leave"
Flicks "Hmmm, probably just have a look at the shops & umm, maybe buy some wine or something"
Me " really, but if you are not at school you'll have to get a job, what do you think you might like to do ?"
Flicks "well, I could be a policeman....I think they might have beds at the police station and I could still come home for supper"

ONLY 5 !!

Hmmmmm - Women in Architecture

I joined this group on linked-in thinking it may be useful & possibly even interesting. After posting a post about equal pay for women I find I am getting a hard time from an ex-army (US) nut: a man who clearly hates women......not what I was really expecting to find.
