Hello everybody. I bet you didn't expect to see me back in here..!!
Last year I decided I needed to take some time away from social media.... and a few other activities.... to devote as much time as possible to my family.
It's been a very happy and contented year, if occasionally difficult and even traumatic at times, but now I'm ready to show my face again.
I hope you have all been well and enjoying life. Me..? It's been a challenging year with much happening, but it's been good.
We've had a death in the family, a "close run thing" with my dad and Amanda got a promotion. We both play netball every week for a team in the local league and still enjoy our rugby.
The Mini Tsuanami is doing well at school and still loves to swim. She goes to swim club twice a week and would go every day if she could. I'm still a stay at home mum but am now starting to plan my route back to work. It won't be easy. I've suffered too much skill fade in the last 6 or so years and Brexit has already hammered my profession. It will hurt it even more when / if UK finally leaves the EU so that's going to be interesting. Oh well.... life was never meant to be easy, eh..?
I'm looking forward to picking up on all that's going on here and getting involved again.... probably not as much as before, but certainly on a reasonably regular basis.
It's nice to say hello again. Now.... how many familiar names am I going to see when I scroll through the topics, I wonder...

I really don't know how I'm going to feel this morning. Amanda's just gone off to work and I can't go back to bed even though I could get another hour or so in the kip before the day starts (it's 5.15 am here as I write).
Megan starts school today. She's looking forward to it and I've got her new school clothes all laid out and ready for her. New everything. We went shopping for a lunchbox last Friday morning. She chose one with Peppa Pig on it. No surprise there.
My baby starts school today and I'm absolutely terrified. I know it's completely irrational of me, but I can't help it.
Will she be happy..? Will she make friends..? Will she like her teacher..? All stupid questions because I know she's going to be fine. She was very happy at playgroup and some of her friends from there will be starting at the same "Big School" today so she'll see faces she knows in the playground, possibly even in her class.
So all my worries are completely irrational and I know that, but I'm still going to feel a dreadful wrench when I wave her bye-bye as I leave her at the gate.
I've planned out a day that will keep me occupied until I have to go back to collect her at Going Home Time but I don't think I'll be able to concentrate on it.
Somebody please tell me I'm an utter idiot and should stop worrying because everything is going to be fine and she'll love every minute of it.
Kids eh..? Who'd have 'em..? | |
