While I haven't done much research on this topic, I figure that promoting your blog offline, in the real world, would be beneficial in bringing more traffic. I was actually thinking of getting business cards printed, maybe even promotional pens and I could get all the kiddos a tshirt so when they are out and about, they can promote my blog too! I'd be interested in reading your thoughts about ... Read More

I'm so excited I can't contain myself! My sister called me yesterday to tell me to keep Tuesday free because she needs me to be one of her support people when she gives birth! I'm going to be an aunty for the first time!! Because I live between their house and hospital, they're stopping by to pick me up on Tuesday morning. She's going to be induced because her ... Read More

I don't like credit cards. I have seen too many people get way over their heads in debt because of their uncontrollable spending habits and not being able to keep up with repayments. I prefer to use my own money and if I don't have the money to buy something, I either save for it or I don't get it...simple. It's only recently that DH and I have just ... Read More

I have to tell you that I am becoming quite the Wii Sports Star. The way I take control of my tennis racket and smash my opponents, the skill in the way I send that bowling ball down the lane, the way I take full control of the baseball glove and ball when I'm pitching..............

This person WAS someone we considered family but no longer do so and her only way to interfere in my life now is to harass me through my blogs. What she doesn't realise is that her comments will never see light of day on this blog or any ... Read More

You get told that if you keep holding on, if you keep apologising first, things will get better and it will be more fun only to find out that it becomes even ... Read More

As if it's not enough that we already have one learner driver in the mummified household, next year in March DD15 will be turning 16 and will be old enough to go for her learner's permit! And I have already said that there is no way I am going to be getting in the care with either of them until they have their provisional licences. I'm too much of a ... Read More

In recent times, you may have noticed that I have passworded some of my posts. No one gets to read these posts except my DH. I used to write in journals but I unfortunately found out some years ago that someone had read my journals and took it upon themselves to tear out some pages.  I never found out for sure who it was, but I have a fair idea ... Read More
