Sunshine

Good morning everyone....

Its gonna be a beautiful day......

I have a brilliant day to look forward to today, I'm at the office this morning then coming home to make up a picnic, were off to the beach tonight....

I have more photos to do and the kids are coming with me to make sandcastles, so its keeping everyone happy..lol

If you've got to work you may as well make it enjoyable .... so thanks to the glorious sunshine it should be a nice night, perfect for mixing kids and work happily...

Yesterday was a really busy one, so hopefully today will be a bit more peaceful...

I finished off some photos last night fell in a heap and want to get the rest done tonight so it Free's up the week, Ive arranged a sitter and want to spend some time at my oasis, i haven't been swimming for ages so if i get the work done out of the way i can enjoy the week, and get some time out for myself....

I may also spoil myself and get an extra lesson in at the stable too, lol now i know the way there will be no stopping me..lol

Enjoy the sunshine everyone and have a great day.............

I am now officially car less...lol
She sold to the first person who drove her...sulk.. but at least its a woman..
I hope they have as much fun in her as i did...... I have many happy memories to be thankful for.......

Refreshing

Its monday..... back to the grindstone..lol

Ive had a really good weekend got loads of things done that were badly needed, so am starting the week off in much better shape...

I spent the day yesterday sorting out. the radio got turned up and i spent hours lost in my bedroom...

Ive been putting off sorting out my wardrobe for about 6 months so yesterday we tackled it...OMG.. its got to be done as i want to decorate....

I am the first to admit it was in human, i have enough clothes to easily fill 2 shops, and for someone that doesnt have a fetish for shoes ive done pretty well, i counted over 14 pairs of boots 30 pairs of shoes and found 5 new pairs of playboys under the clothes still in boxes (i cant even remember buying ) so ive been ruthless and got 400 tops down to 60 (which is still hideous ill admit) but its a good start for me... i used to have a double rail so full of couldnt actually move the hangers to find anything so the bedroom looks so much better today, I also hung up my fellas picture he was given as a pressie for his birthday so i get to look at that as soon as i open my eyes..lol

It was good to spend some time with him, weve been like ships in the night this week and i know next weeks just as bad, so we enjoyed some time together..lol

It was lethal cleaning out the bedroom with him though... i got to have 3 showers yesterday, with the kids all asking whys mum in the shower again..lol ask your father..lol

Im ready for the week today, very sore from horseriding, but feeling so much better and loving the sunshine this morning...

My car goes to the garage today to be sold, so ive cleaned and polished her up, someones going to test drive her lunchtime so i dont think shell be coming home anymore...

I wanted a fresh start so im happy, ive seen her replacement, shes much more modest but has 4 seats and a soft top, so if im a good girl and work hard ill have another in a few months, the horseriding provides the wind through my hair so the money has to go into stock, as agreed...

anyway i can pinch my fellas car now, he doesnt need one so ive stuck my keyring on his and slowly started to move my gear and cds in.... (well he did it with his toothbrush !) lol

Im looking forward to today, ive got loads to get into, the suns shining and im feeling good so the weekends done me the world of good.....

Hes working all weekend next week so im glad we made the most of it......

Back to ships in the night again now...........lol

Sunset

What a weekend... i hope today's as good as yesterday...

I spent an afternoon yesterday entertaining myself and the kids, the day flew by, but I'm happy as my home is now my home again the garden looks amazing so I'm happy...

I went to pick fruit with the kids(ate most of it as we went along) but they were so well behaved and didn't argue once.. it makes such a difference having Ryan back....

My fella got home around 7 and instead of having his meal ready i had a pile of clothes sitting there, told him to get changed and took him out for the evening...

We didn't do anything glam, just went and got fish and chips and sat by the beach.....as it was such a beautiful night

The sunset was amazing, there were also a really friendly group there all camping having a beach party...

They had lit the beach up and were really having such a great time so i sat there listening to the music in my element, its just what was needed after a hard week, mother nature always has a way of making me smile whether its getting me soaked or feeling that sun on your face... things that cost nothing except a little time, I'm not gonna get into a life of being so busy I lose the things I love... so ill make sure i make more time... its too precious not to...

I'm going out this week buying a decent sized tent and going to sleep on that beach.. Ive always wanted to do it, so decided its next on my list....

Have a great day everyone ...............

Hammer Time

Sorry estelle i had to post it...lol
Bruceees bonus edition..hehe

Flying

I did it.................yipeee

I cant believe i actually found the place for the first time ..lol

Not just that my kids were beautifully behaved for me as they all had to sit and watch and ive now been allocated my own horse to ride every week... I got Freedom ! shes the one they thought would be too powerful for me, but the one i really wanted and trust, so its 2 huge acheivements for me today, as i rode well and was cantering round those fields today in my element, with a smile as big as the sun...

I stuck a packet of polos in my pocket and that horse knew...lol she was so beautifully behaved and it all seemed to click into place...where theres a will theres a way eh..lol

I cant wait to tell my fella I DONT need a satalite system if i know noones there to rely on, I can and will do it .....

Someone get me down from up here will you...

im flying today..............

On route

What a beautiful day... its not raining !! lol yet

Its horseriding today at 12.30.... so im having another go at finding the place as my partners working today, so with 4 kids in tow im going to try again...lol

I have been offered a lift again, but its like i said to her if i dont keep trying ill be admitting defeat and thats not in my vocabulary... so if i get lost again, so be it..lol

Im glad to say im back to feeling fit again, i still have a husky voice but as my fella likes it i cant complain.. except i dont see my fella anymore that is.. but you cant have it all...lol

Hes getting on so well at his new job, the changes are unbelievabe in just a week, hes found his forte and is growing in confidence by the day...

This weekend ive got some stuff planned to keep myself amused, its been a matter of adjusting all week to new things and new routines (yuk taboo word) but im starting to really enjoy the challenge...

Anyway.... wish me luck,theres noone to ring today if i get lost... so if that doesnt make me find the way nothing will.... lol

French Tart

Its nearly the weekend, were getting through the week.....lol

Kids make me giggle sometimes, i promised i would spend at least 2 days a week after work cooking and teaching them pastries and cakes (that's my speciality)..lol my fella has to do the same with meats so i got the good part.. all those lovely calories....

I haven't been well this week, but they wont let me get away with it that lightly, so when i got home today i had to swap wanting to go to bed, with a cookery course...

I have never seen so much mess making quiches and tarts, its everywhere....lol

But as promised i have taken a photo of one of the quiches (it looks almost edible too lol)

So im having a 5 min break to write this while they argue about which pie base is theirs armed with jam and spoons dripping strawberries all round the kitchen... god tomorrow its sponge cakes and butter cream so that should be fun... not ... lol

I must say though they've really enjoyed it, and didn't argue quite as much as usual, but they also get to know what we do with those herbs and vegetables we have been growing, so I'm happy Ive managed to do the work bit today and keep this lot amused and still have some hair left ....

I'm stealing my fellas car this weekend and taking them down to the beach so hopefully that will blackmail them enough to be good for me tomorrow, and we've completed week one without complications... 5 more to go..........................

I much prefer dirty dancing to cooking though... so ill try that later when they've gone to bed...lol

growing pains

Lol .... god i know its the start of the holidays alright...

So far today the triplets went out to play got bullied again, thrown in a puddle so are now having to stay indoors until my eldest gets back from holiday, as noone messes with him, thanks to kickboxing....lol

Im struggling to get the website back up as the servers a mess so ive been all morning shouting at those responsible..lol so it looks like ill be working most of the night as i cant get it done until its back up...

So ive been using the time and getting some bits organised to keep the kids entertained... theyve chose mums gardening first ..lol only because i have some strange plants to grow......

Laurens got a venus fly trap and a hooded executioners plant..

Brandons got a cobra lily and a dracula plant...

and Callums got a waterslide of doom and draculas tongue.... you see i do love to give the kids interlectual things to learn...lol please remember i do have strange kids ....

So tomorrow (thanks to my sister) im outta here and in my unit, its the first day of the school holidays and i can already see its not going to be easy....

The headsets out already..... im trying to work and not listen to the arguments in the backround and pray today gets better...........

Happy Birthday To A Lady ......

Well as my friend now has her title ..lady (lord & lady eh) lol

I couldn't just put a cake picture in could I now ...

Happy birthday J ...........

Thanks for one of the best evenings we've had out in a long time (we went to a posh ball...ahaa) yep me! the most un-lady like person you are ever likely to meet...lol

My friend looked totally stunning and shone inside out, so the fact it was the eve of her birthday made it all the more special for us ...

The food was wonderful, the music was out of this world (i loved every song) but the highlight was definately the company.... unbeatable...

I hope you have a great night tonight with your family, and enjoy all your gifts, (don't forget to feed them ! )

Thank you so much for a brilliant night,more wonderful memories and for sharing your special time with us.....

I know you may have the papers now hanging on that wall (but you don't really need them)

In my eyes you always have been ....... A class act, my friend, and a true Lady ...................

XXX

New steps

Yipeeeeeeee.... Its true !! im now the boss again......lol

My partners officially landed himself an excellent job, and starts full time Monday.. god I'm so pleased...

hes back working in a field where he excells so will soon be back overtaking me ...

hes given me a huge boost tonight, i was hoping today would go well and it did..

The one thing ive learnt this year is, don't work with your partner, no matter how well you get on, it doesn't work the work spills over into your social life and if its a bloke he naturally tries to take control..lol (sorry about that if you are male)

Its true though, you tend to let the guy take charge and as mine said today, hes not me and doesn't work like i do, in fact we are complete opposites... he doesn't read (i read everything twice) he likes to sign everything without reading and it makes me have to work like a mad woman to get ourselves out of positions one signature put us in..lol

Its been a huge journey, and made me stronger as a person as i know now i can really dig deep, probably more than i even realised, but someone just took a huge load of my shoulders and put him back in the kind of job he does beautifully so we'll be back to competing again now and ill put him in his place by winning of course....lol (lets hope he doesn't read this) hehe

I love a challenge but this year has tied my hands so firmly up and made me work with people i didn't want to, but now im free..................................

Ive got a list of stuff i want to get into, machines that will be humming by Tuesday and a head full of wonderful things that now will come out without having to discuss anything with anyone ... im now away...

Im now gonna go jump in the biggest puddle i can find, scream at the first person who walks past my house, (get arrested) and watch my fella get back to best....

Hes done wonders to the website shop so has brought many good changes to the business, but hes also going to be able to take what he does best and mix the two, its not sexy talking about clothes all day with a partner, id much rather prefer taking clothes off with no discussions...

I'll get to see him sexily suited up every day and really enjoy listening to what his day has brought, so its great news and reason to really feel excited again....

Right most importantly first things first............ the first thing on my list anyway...

PUT THOSE FLAGS OUT....lol

(estelle were freeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee)

Symphonies

Its been a brilliant weekend, today Ive been trying to get my house in order (and failing dismally lol) so Ive had a day of enjoying my kids instead....

Yes they are noisy, make such a mess of my home and blame each other, so sometimes its a struggle and you can forget the good parts they bring to your life..

Last night we were invited to our best friends house to a party at a neighbours, Ive been looking forward to it all week, and it took a day of me getting my lot organised at home set up meals etc just so i could get there, but it was well worth it..

my friends have a gift they bring to my life i cant explain, its like going away from everything i have to be here at home, there are so many demands sometimes its like i get in the car and leave mum ,the boss ,the cleaner, and referee at home, there i can go out simply as Jo...

My fella feels the same, hes struggled lately to find the good parts of himself , he sees himself as a failure in ways and that's NOT how it should be, his greatest gift is helping others so its a good gift to have, to put others first, even if sometimes it doesn't go right, look at me with my sense of direction, I'm that bad its untrue, its my time i do allow myself to admit I'm wonderfully good at being hopelessly bad at finding anywhere.. but at least i still keep trying... so in my books its the trying that counts the most... so we shouldn't look for the bad stuff in ourselves so much, we should just look harder for the good... and he is a good man..

I was really pleased last night as my friends children were also there, we've heard so much about them so you feel you already know them in some ways, but im so glad i got to spend an evening with them, it gives me hope....

Hope my kids could perhaps turn out as well, and that although sometimes being the parent is hard work and brings many sleepless nights and emotions we don't sometimes want to feel, it also changes when they grow in years, as it then changes into a friendship....im looking forward to that..

Who i met last night was a young lady who is the image of her dad, gifted beyond belief musically, but also caring, honest and totally down to earth... its a rarity...when she played on the piano its like everything stopped you couldnt help but get lost in her notes, it was really moving... and really moved me....

She was joined by her brother on his guitar who also has so many of his mums wonderful characteristics and talent its untrue, you can see the intelligence and kindness but also a real strength they are totally different characters but moulded together perfectly, its was such a beautiful balance...

coming from my house here, where the children have not yet discovered how to blend together, there is still attention seeking and rivalry, so I'm glad i was part of last night so i can see it wont always be like this, i love my kids unconditionally, but sometimes i just cant seem to be enough to keep them all happy, and I'm looked at as the referee, to stop the squabbling....lol

I spent quality time with my friends last night, and felt richer for the night they gave me, as they made us part of it, its the first time we've met the kids and as they are so much like their mum and dad you couldn't help but love them, they are both amazing ...

After rescuing my fella from falling into the Jacuzzi backwards, the whole night made me feel really warm, the band was brilliant (esp the Pink Floyd tracks) and has left me today smiling inside out....

If my kids ever grow up to be half as nice as J and S then i for one would be the tallest blonde in Norwich...

I have a daughter who plays the violin, a drummer, a guitarist and a keyboard player (who now wants a piano) so hopefully when they get a little older and decide they actually do really like each other, there may be hope for them yet....lol

Its so true what they say, music really does bring people together....

different characters, colours, from all walks of life...one things clear ...

everyone can hear notes... but it takes a special person to feel them ...

if we can learn to feel them as a group, thats when it all comes together...

That's what I'm hoping for someday , my peaceful sibling symphony......lol

Blonde roadsigns

Ive just been to my weekly horse riding lesson so thought id give you all a giggle...by telling you about my morning....

I had a map all ready decided i really did know the way so off i set, i left at 11.20 for a lesson that started at 12.30 so you would have though i would have easily made it on time wouldn't you...lol ...nope not me !

It went ok i went through the city fine all the roundabouts fine til im on a straight road ? thats where i went decidedly wrong.. i missed my turning..oops

My mobile is a pain the battery only lasts about 30 Min's so I'm doing 70 up a duel carriage way trying to ring home, my fellas NOT impressed with me at all today...oops again

There i was sobbing my head off telling him I'm lost again and him trying to ask where i was so he could help... i didn't know (if i knew where i was i wouldn't be lost now would i ! lol) so i kept driving...lol

eventually i found a turn off stopped the car and tried to remember how many bridges id been under so he could work out where i was, with some guy was shouting at me in the car behind ...oops oops again

with my daughter shouting you'll be late mum if you don't hurry up... lol

We eventually got directions with my fella getting up a map on Google (thank you ) im not sure how he did it but he got me back on route and to my lesson 1 minute late, id been driving for well over an hour .....

the funny part was when i got there Shadow was waiting for me (yes the white horse that doesn't like rain wind or sunshine) and was riding her today... lol

As it turns out i was upset enough with my driving i got on the horse without being nervous today and did really well, we happily trotted round on my own with shadow responding perfectly to everything i asked of her (bless she has hayfever) the instructor says i should get lost every week as my riding was excellent, so alls well that ends well...

My sister was also there with my niece today and knows exactly how bad my sense of direction is and offered me a lift beforehand, but i wanted to try it on my own? lol

yes i know now i should have took the lift, ill probably do exactly the same thing next week and will eventually buy myself a satellite system that i keep saying i don't need and do......lol

I defiantly prefer driving to the beach ( i also know the way there)... lol

Do they make such a thing as road signs for blondes ......lol

so if you see me out and i offer you a lift....... Dont .. not if you actually want to get anywhere

.... unless you want to go to lost of course...lol

Friday 13th

Its been a good week, busy but good, so apologies for not posting for anyone who reads..

By the time Ive got finished every night Ive been falling into a heap ..

Today's my fun day... yes its Friday again, that means its a girls day, with my fella off to play with his worms again..lol

I decided to take my cuppa upstairs and have a bath this morning, so in i get smothered in bubbles to feel what felt like sand all over the bottom of the bath?

i couldnt work out what it was, it was spotless when i got into it, but after picking up my sponge which i keep 6 feet up away from the kids i discovered exactly what it was , lovely black grit.....

my son (bless) had decided to use my huge natural bath sponge to clean his skateboard with and popped it back without telling , so the minute it got wet out came all this lovely grit... im all up for exfoliation, but this was stretching it a bit far especially at this hour of the morning....lol

So I'm sitting here its now five o clock, and after calling my fella for over an hour I'm giving up, his packed lunch is ready and its like waiting for the dead to rise...lol ill send his dad up when he gets here, I'm sure he can get him out of bed, i seem to work in the reverse and he tries to get me into it... lol

I have lots of good stuff to do today that's been saved for the best day of the week, well my working one anyway ....I seem to have found my second wind this week and am rearing to go...

We had our pervy guy ring up again yesterday, hes becoming a regular now..lol

he starts the call every time by asking for help to find his daughter some sexy clothes.. (seems harmless i admit) til he swiftly moves on to she has huge tits... and likes to show them off, (getting friendlier now) and moves onto the heavy breathing while he describes what hes doing in graphic detail (not a good time to eat lunch, weve been there ! )he only lasts about 40 seconds (if you mention black lace and g strings)(so of course i will ) but yesterday we thought wed get our own back,... i have the perfect antidote all ready so am praying he calls again today.... what a way to end his friday 13th eh..... lol


I love the date, everyones nervous so im gonna enjoy milking it to the full today... lol



Have a great day everyone.....

dont walk under any ladders ! lol

Freedom

Say hi to freedom... lol

I went to my riding lesson yesterday, but as my usual horse is the worst behaved there lol (funny that) and doesn't like Sunshine, rain or wind i was asked to ride freedom, this week another white one... she was lovely..

Shadow threw off the instructor last week due to the weather and she got hurt so, they decided to let me ride another grey this week, shes bigger more powerful but behaved impeccably for me.. bless

My partner came again to watch, but Ive asked him not to anymore for a while i like my Independence and will learn quicker if i know no ones watching, besides he doesn't want me to learn to jump so its probably better that i go alone, i do want to learn...

I drove there this week.... its a breakthrough... i actually found the way, Kimblewick isn't an easy one either its on the way to Dereham, so I'm really pleased with myself, i get to take my car now.....

I was with the group this week, still a little nervous but slowly grasping to just use your feet and bum and leave your hands loose, she caught me a couple of times by spinning circles but im managing to stay on....lol

This week i was trotting happily along on my own, my bum is slowly getting adjusted, but is a little tender, doesn't help that i went and had my bikini waxed just before...lol

but im wearing my g strings happily and really enjoying Saturdays....

My fellas decided hes buying me a proper hat ! every week i borrow one and they are not nice... i got what loke like an army tin one this week which cracked me up, but seems im there to add to my experiences .im not worried what i look like, its what it feels like im interested in.. so yes im posting the picture with the tin hat on....lol just so you can all have a giggle...

Next week im riding with my daughter, so were going on our own in my car with the top down if its sunny... watch it rain.... lol

Friday feeling

yipeeeeeeeeeeeeee.... Fridays here...

Its a day for the girls today, my fellas gone to get that windswept look so its just us girls.... lol

Ive got a few things planned for today and plan on letting everyone go home early, im having some time out....

I got up extra early watching the coyote ugly girls dancing on that bar , as you do...(god why dont they do bars like that here) Englands so boring... its that society thing ... someone open one please, id love a night out especially in a place like that.. ive got the boots too..lol

Anyway ive started as i mean to go on and todays defintately not gonna be a boring one...

Have a great day, dont work too hard (unless the boss is looking!)

Dreamz

Im tired today and have just finished the computer work to start again on the photos...lol

I am really restless and dont really know why, we all get days like it i know, so i hope it goes as quickly as it came...

Its been a real giggle at the unit today, estelles had me in hysterics and ive been singing so it says it all really, we were winding Julie up saying we are gonna install a speaker system so i can sing to her in the packing room, lol and in her words i couldnt sound any worse ..... does that mean i have permission ! hehe i guess so....

I have dresses to photo this week........ oh shit ! that means i have to hold my breathe and make myself look like i have curves, when i dont... by bending into shapes a yoga instructer would be proud of...

My friend has what i class as the perfect figure so no matter what i do i always see so many flaws but all i can do is try my best, the dresses are beautiful though and im making a special one for my friend, so I can see what it should look like....... Im praying she likes it...

My thoughts are all over the place today, ive been dreaming weird stuff about prof snape (yes from harry potter) lol (dont ask me why) i am the butt of everyons jokes today, i dont even watch tv, i just listen to music ..... so if someone out theres poking pins in a doll that looks like me, making me dream such amusing things please can you put Brad in them instead... now theres something i wouldnt mind dreaming about...lol...

Ive been left a note tonight when i got home from sandra....lol

She loves my partners book our friends made him..... oooooops she was crying with laughter, so as my fella never reads my blogs i dont think ill tell him, i forgot to put it away... only me sandra and all you all know.... he looks great anyway and has nothing to be ashamed of.... we were all born naked... well admittingly not with scarves tied round articles, but he likes to be different...lol

So It will just be our little secret........lol

Well have a brilliant night everyone, wherever you are and whatever you may be doing...

And remember its friday tomorrow........yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Get out there and enjoy that rain...........lol

The weekends nearly here.....

Come on no more pins..

Much better mmmmmmmmm

comments

Thanks for yesterdays comments, im glad to say it worked...........
the room is spotless so i am happy....

Mens muscles ...lol

What do you do with a partner that needed cheering up.... only one thing i can think of.... but a 1001 ways to do it ..lol

The party went ok, but we were let down by a few people, so my fella was a bit disappointed.... hes feeling uplifted now........lol

On the positive side the friends we did have there, more than made up for it, so its got a huge plus side...

I think personally hes sulking as hes now hit 40 ..lol (it must be a man thing) i cant wait til i get to 40, ive already decided im off somewhere hot so wont be wanting any party except for a beach and a bottle.... im gonna totally misbehave myself and not remember a moment ...... lol

Todays been a good one, im getting my house back to habitable, and catching up with little things i didnt get time for over the weekend... (like making huge rockets! lol) the boys needed rockets made and painted for tomorrow so im now smiling quite happy covered in paint and glitter but enjoyed doing my blue peter impression.... ive got brownie points too from the kids for cool custom flame effects.... my son claims i should be a famous artist, like the one whos dead !.... bless (thanks for that...)lol

Getting back to men, sorry i wandered off a bit there... we were into girls talk today and want to know the answer to a very important question, thats bothering me....lol

I want to know why mens bums dont sag ?

its true, men have more pert butts ... so im intrigued to know why...

if anyone can answer than one cleanly, id be really happy to know, it seems that the older a woman gets the more gravity takes things down, but with men its opposite... lol

The more men age the more things stay firm ...... i meant muscles..lol

come on ..you know what im talking about... im trying to ask a serious question here and its coming out all wrong... lol

Id love to know your opinions on this one, someone said today its because their muscle structure is different..lol agreed they have an extra one.... but women have muscles in their butts so why do ours lose shape and males dont (and if anyone says its because we use ours to sit down more.. (bare in mind i have your ip addresses..lol and a strange sense of humour) so please put me out of my misery..... cleanly....
