Well Ok I'm once in a blue moon blogger !

Well, I can't keep promises to blog, quite frankly I'm really not reliable on this front- I can't even blame face book, farmville or even mafia wars as I haven't been on there either.

I'm not actually sure where I've been! I wasn't abducted by aliens, or ship wrecked on a desert island or sadly whisked away by Johnny Depp(!) Regretably, I seemed to have aged by two years since my last bout of blogging, and my laughter lines have all of a sudden decided to grin at me like a cheshire cat coupled with the fact I now own several strands of silver, but not in the jewellery department sense of the word.

Life has bumbled on carrying me along on the crest of the wave, sometimes gently swishing me to a good place and other times dropping me in a land which has challenges, annoyances and sheer frustrations.But on the whole I have enjoyed the last year and a half being busy with other things.

I no longer have any children at primary school, my babies having grown and now walk themselves to "Big school". Health wise we have been very lucky apart from one tonsillectomy which was fairly traumatic and unpleasant.Weirdly I seem to have shrunk some what in the height department, with my boy now towering above me- the pencil marks that I lovingly have etched on the kitchen door have started to fade indicating how quickly the kids have grown in what seems such a short space of time.

My chickens "Scarlett and Tallulah" have kept me busy and rather entertained, despite the fact that my garden is no more... I had my first double yolker egg a few weeks ago, which was very exciting !! The poo mounds have not decreased in mass or velocity.

On the work front, I have been very occupied.My good friend Lyzzy and I have a plan on how to make our first million in a future proposed creative empire outside of work. We are practising a variety of different crafts at this time until we are proficient in one or bankrupt from all of the stuff we seem to be buying..

Christmas came and went having crept up silently behind me and now in a New Year I have made my annual list of resolutions and plans of things to do.This includes such goals like eat healthily and get fitter ( may be I'll start this after I've finished off the remaining 5kg tin of chocolates and boxes of biscuits that seem to have reproduced in my cupboard over night.

So this may be my unique 2012 blog entry, although I do hope not, once again I have been shamed into blogging by dear Lyzzy who seems to make the most out of every mili second -may be I need to adopt this stance... but pass me another choccy first !!

I'm looking forward to catching up with blogging friends old and making friends new and hoping that you haven't been as lazy as I have.

Happy New Year Everyone !
