My Daily Sigh Afternoon. I’m feeling sleepy and it’s not even 5pm. This is me singing ‘ I’m so over men’ in a recent cabaret, it caused me to clench my fists and pull this attractive face. In the middle of last night, this face and fist clenching was also pulled when BM woke me …
My Daily Sigh Afternoon. Not only has Art Week been therapeutic for both me and the class, but it has opened my eyes to a potential career change. A child took one look at my pastel owl picture and announced it was good enough for Marks and Spencer! Praise indeed. Just waiting for that phone …
My Daily Sigh. Morning. Yesterday was spent removing Christmas from our home. The waifs and strays who turned up for NYE might have only been a few, but Alexa had her work cut out keeping up with multiple instructions, and the already delicate Christmas tree took a huge battering. ‘Shake the Christmas tree’ and ‘Throw …
My Daily Sigh. Morning. For the first time I’ve gone for gold. It’s Christmas, so I’m hoping with all the preparations my nails will last. For the first time I have Christmas bedding and sadly, no panto to go to. Not for the first time, I’m feeling chilly, my body temperature is all over the …
My Daily Sigh. Evening, Christmas has arrived! Yesterday I ate my first Christmas dinner, pulled my first cracker and donned my first Christmas hat of 2018. Today we performed our final show of the ‘Inn Spectors’ Nativity. The donkey sang the blues and did his Elvis Presley dance to huge cheers, the star angel twinkled …
My Daily Sigh. Evening, my Monday might have had a few moments, but I had the joy of finally seeing my winning raffle hamper! What a selection box of beauty goodies, an added bonus of a bottle of pink fizz to help me on my way and £30 worth of Indian Takeaway vouchers. Christmas has …
My Daily Sigh. Evening, Christmas has come early. Not only am I mid Nativity rehearsals, I have just purchased my first Christmas present and these battered old hands with short stumps have had some festive cheer applied to them this evening! Thank you to my dear friend Sue, you are a star. Evening, we had …
My Daily Sigh. Evening, today I wore odd socks. I haven’t suddenly become some fat ankled footwear fashion icon, although I’m wondering if there is a market for models with unflattering ankles and humongous feet. If so, I could indeed be the woman they want. My ability to wash and match socks hasn’t gone out …
My Daily Sigh. Morning, wishing I had the same control over cats as I do of small children. Trying to learn words for the Cabaret and Pepsi does not understand the simple word “sit” or the words “leave me alone!”. Apparently, small children with good language need to learn 8 NEW words every day. I’ve …
My Daily Sigh. Afternoon, when BM says he’s purchased a new steamer and son number one looks excited you know both brains are at cross purposes. Son might be concerned about the sugars and preservatives in an animal diet, but steamed vegetables is not yet high on his desirable list. A voice steamer however, was! …
