My Daily Sigh Morning. Yesterday, BM got himself holiday ready in his new jeans and sandals. Emulating the fashion look of a young, twenty year old dancer, was always going to be questionable when you are several sizes bigger, your legs don’t ‘bevel’ and standing in first position requires you to hold on! The queue …
My Daily Sigh Evening. It‘s been two weeks since I was blessed with this lovely gift. I’m not sure I should be thanked. In the care of my useless green fingered hands, this rose has not grown, but is on the verge of death. Thankfully, my skills with teaching small children are not so disastrous. …
My Daily Sigh Morning. You know you are old when you start polishing and notice there is a funny smell. Yep, I was polishing with FLY KILLER. Kill me now. Morning. Todays the day of the BBQ and we’ve not had the best nights sleep. A mosquito got its horrible jaws into my leg and …
My Daily Sigh Morning. BM mocked me as I put son’s oversized photo into my handbag on the day of his graduation. “He’s not a missing person!” he exclaimed! He decided to photoshop one of my photos! Yesterday, as BM stood in the garden looking up at a tree full of tweeting House Sparrows and …
My Daily Sigh Evening. Tonight my passport has been renewed online. Who knew it was so quick and easy?…well, for BM to do.

My Daily Sigh Morning. Gig on the Green was hot hot and VERY HOT.! This is the body that wore factor 50 in the heat and the face that really struggled. Whilst some people wore fashionable crop tops, shorts or mini dresses, I tried a parasol, a fan, water, a hat and sunglasses, but this …
My Daily Sigh Evening. BM is away working. He’s enjoying a week of fine dining, sunshine and sailing. I’m truly sorry for him. I’m feeling my age. I’m working, chauffeuring, struggling to sleep, failing at being a domestic goddess and am not fine dining. I’m truly sorry for me. I’ve apparently failed at the simple …
My Daily Sigh Evening. Today, June has been busting out all over… with rain! Wearing open toed shoes and a cotton cardigan was a ‘cold’ mistake, tomorrow the socks and boots are back on my feet. The day has had a few family stresses and BM is thrilled to be driving to Luton airport to …
My Daily Sigh Evening. When you cast a glance at the wedding photos you took and realise your friends deserve a special award for patience and understanding! Not only did the selfie stick photo require deep contemplation but I appear to have either drifted off or be doing some anti ageing facial exercises and cheek …
My Daily Sigh Evening. Son arrives home from work, pops his head round my bedroom door and blows a kiss, I blow one back! “Ah was that for me?” I ask sweetly. “It was actually to the cat!” he replies. I know my place. Next time you want to borrow £10 or a lift, why …
