Interruptions and the Lunchbox
Life taught me a lesson this week! Well I hope I have learnt from it. My normal morning routine had a planned for change. Instead of the normal school run, I was taking my oldest to the Hospital for an appointment, an early one at that. It meant organising the other children to go to Grandparents… Continue reading Interruptions and the Lunchbox

I'm amazed that this combination… Continue reading The Punctuation of Life

Driving Blind
Driving home from work on a dark and stormy night is not the easiest ride. Visibility is poor. Conditions hard. Add to that driving in an unfamiliar car and you've got yourself a complicated trip home. Tonight, I had all the elements. I was driving our new car and I realised that I had not made… Continue reading Driving Blind
