So right now my fingers are twitching to post more cocktail, sunset and beach holiday photos to social media, along with quirky ‘best holiday ever’ comments to match. I want to confirm to you all that my hours (bloody HOURS!) of research and our final decision to embark on a cruise ship was the best…
Trying Toddlers
HEAD TO THE BACK BEACH
Sand. Sand everywhere. Sand in places you don’t even want to know about. I do love Summer; the smell of BBQ’s wafting through the windows, soft serve ice-creams, sunshine sparkling across the ocean, icy cold drinks and people genuinely seem happier. But I hate sand. This Summer, because of a move for my husband’s work,…
SHOVELLING SH*T UPHILL
Picture this. A scene that is unfolding across households all across the world and very possibly in yours. Frazzled Mummy has decided that a bit of dry shampoo and deodorant will suffice until tonight as the clock steadily ticks onwards. Breakfast was a disaster as can be seen by the mess sprawled across the…
Princess Pissypants
Ol’ Pissy Pants is killing me slowly. If you’re searching the internet with poo smeared curtains and the washing machine constantly cleaning bed sheets; this is not the ‘how to guide to toilet training’ you might be looking for. Rather, this is the ‘how to get through to the other side with your sanity and…
SMILE AND SAY ‘DISASTER’
I could almost taste the umbrella laden, heavy on the pour, fruity cocktail. The sun was warm on my face, my bathers were shapely around my newly skinnied up bod (daydream sequence alert!!) and the children were happily making Dory masks in Kids Club. The fantasy was tantalisingly close. Just one, small hiccup… The kids…
SNOT FUNNY
“It’s a squishy one, Mum,” was shouted from the toilet. Great. Just.Freakin’.Great. Today, I needed to feel more than just an on tap arse wiper. It was a nothing Wednesday. Hump day. A long, long way from Friday. But at least we had plans. A lovely pre-school mum had given me the heads up…
WHOSE DAUGHTER IS THAT?
Kids say the darndest things, right? All those ‘cutesy’, mispronounced words, or funny little nick names for their siblings, or how they like to point out the elephant in the room that we adults try so hard to ignore. I really love getting a giggle from this. Except when it’s my bloody child, LOUDLY,…
MUMMY BLOGGER DUET
I may just live to regret this…. Decided to try something new and was getting my groove on in a little practice sesh…when I was upstaged by my two year old diva. Click on the link…….and it’s OK, I won’t give up my day job 😉 I have linked this up with : …
IT ONLY TOOK A SECOND…
Silence is not freakin’ golden. Silence is bad. Possibly VERY BAD. I turned the shower off and stepped hesitantly, nude and dripping, into the hallway. Nothing. Well….perhaps….something…. I followed the trail of biscuit crumbs in my search for Hansel and bloody Gretel, my witches cackle beginning to gurgle deep in my throat. And there they…
THE PRINCESS & THE PEE
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there lived a young and innocent Princess. Her complexion was fair, with ivory skin and long, silken hair. She met and married her knight in shining lycra and their castle was settled in the Kingdom of Suburbia. After traversing the lands up hill and over…
