Today is my first ever mother's day. I really hope that the baby has organised something special, what with all of the free time she has! Ha. Joking aside, I can't actually believe that it's mother's day and I'm a mum. I used to sit and daydream about what it would...
Mr Bear giving me the evil eye. He doesn't like to be photographed during his private moments (when he's drinking water from the tap, eating whole prawns, on the toilet - not that I would want to take a picture of him in his toilet, though he does sometimes look very...
You may have gathered, from seeing the odd flash of house in the backgrounds of my videos and photographs, that my taste in interiors is - what would be traditionally considered to be - rather masculine. I tend to favour warm woods and clean lines and darker colours...
I have a new vlog for you to watch - it's quite random, but I've included some gratuitous pet and baby footage to sweeten the pill. I went to get my ears re-pierced but things didn't quite work out the way I thought they would... Talking of gratuitous pet footage; I...
You may have noticed that there wasn't a post yesterday. If you didn't notice then - quite frankly - I know that you don't love me as much as you say you do. Ha. I have decided that from now on, unless I suddenly manage to find a pocket of free time that has hitherto...
Oh man, I honestly thought I'd never feel normal every again after my two-and-a-bit weeks of cold/cough/throat/chest things. I started to get a bit depressed, lying in bed all day, and even my marathon reading sessions didn't really cheer me up. (On that note: I have...
What a week. A bit of a baptism by fire, in terms of mothering and also in terms of work, because I had to leave Baby AMR for the first time and attend my first "public" event since giving birth, and sleep has been very scarce recently. I think that by Thursday I was...
I found a rather snazzy solution to my sofabed woes the other week and it has just been delivered. I needed a very occasional spare-spare bed that could be stowed away easily but that was more comfortable than a blow-up, and after hours and hours of Googling and...
The past few weeks have pushed me to (almost) breaking point: I have never had to juggle so many different things inside my brain and try to fit so many activities into my day! Granted, many of those activities involve a computer or an iPhone, so it's not as though...
If you're reading these words then I haven't managed to write the proper post I'd intended; I'm at my brother's wedding this weekend. Yesterday was also my birthday. Twenty one! Woohoo! Actually I'm quite glad I'm not twenty one - my breasts may have been as firm as...
This week has mainly been spent bumbling about with eyeliners, trying to create the quickest and most foolproof smoky eye. (See photo above.) I've almost got it down (it's probably the same technique that everyone else has been using for years and I'm simply late to...
A shortened Sunday Tittle Tattle; I've spent most of the weekend in a sort of quiet contemplation, thinking about the atrocities that have happened over the last few days. I can't even begin to imagine how dreadful it must be to lose a loved one so suddenly and...
