Remember Ivy? Well, one petition and over a thousand signatures later, she got permission to receive the treatment she requires. This makes me very happy and I just wanted to thank those of you who signed (and there were a few of you). Also to those of you who contacted me about doing extra stuff, taking…
This morning my husband threw off the covers, showered, and practically skipped out of the door to return to work after having stayed home with us for a week playing nursemaid. I can’t say I really blame him; having three sick people in your ear constantly with complaints: “I am hungry/ not hungry/ cold/ sore/ snotty/…
My Three Ring Circus is one of my favourite bloggers and all round favourite people. As I’m still sick, I hope I’m doing this right but I just wanted to lend my support to her and her daughter, Ivy. The following is taken from the original petition post at Sleepless Nights: Ivy is beautiful and Ivy is…
The kids and I are sick. We all went off to the doctors this morning where we got the diagnosis of, “You’ve got The Flu. In captial letters. The nasty one.” The doctor then leaned closer and said quite seriously, “The Flu people can die from.” I’ve never felt so miserable in my life. So…

‘Twas toy library day and we borrowed a sizeable puppet theatre and ten puppets of differing sexes and occupations. Keira demanded a proper show. I tried, but quickly gave up. She was bored. I was bored. I couldn’t think up of a ‘nice’ story to tell. Bad news for someone who tries to do this sort of thing…
Relish nominated me for this ‘I Love Your Blog’ award. Awesome, yes? I think so. The rules of the award are: 1. The winner can put the logo on his/her blog. {Done} 2. Link the person you received your award from. {Sure!} 3. Nominate 7 other blogs. {Okay} 4. Put links of those blogs on…
Two weeks ago, when I was on the Gastroenteritis Diet, I lost 2 kgs (5-ish pounds). To celebrate, when I could finally eat again, I rewarded myself with ice-cream. A fair bit of it. Today, my jeans fit just as they did before I got sick. {I’m sure I could’ve written that better – in…
