Making the Dogs Feel at Home
We have a couple of dogs in the house – called Bruno and Benji. They are a real part of the family but sometimes we feel that they get left out of things. They get their food every day and sleep on nice warm beds but it sometimes breaks my heart to see them looking [...]
I Hate Living Here
Do you ever look around your house and hate it? I hope that I am not the only person who thinks like this and I am sure that I am not. As my time is pretty limited there is only so much I can do to keep the place tidy and looking good. My lawn [...]
Just Like the Old Days
For some time now I have been worried about my kids’ hobbies. They spend hours on their PlayStation, their PC and in front of the television. When I was a little girl I played with my doll and used my imagination to create interesting worlds. I know that sounds like a cliché but it is [...]

The Stress of Looking After Sick Children
One of the things you learn when you become a Mom is that your days of not having a care in the world are now over. My youngest was ill last week but it was nothing compared to when he was really sick a few years back. He must have been about 18 months old [...]
Should I Let Her Get a Computer?
My kids share a room and while the little one is still happy playing with toys and drawing on the walls his big sister is now a bit more sophisticated. She asked us this morning if we could buy her a computer. To be honest, she actually demanded that we buy her one but leaving [...]
Should Being Unfaithful Mean the End?
We managed to grab a couple of hours when the kids were sleeping last weekend to watch a film together but it just ended in a big fight about being unfaithful. There was nothing good on television so we started to watch Indecent Proposal. I know it is an old film but can you believe [...]
