Great Weekend

So we had a good weekend.

Saturday we went and got some more fish. We bought two male guppies and a Siamese fighting fish. Sadly on the journey home in the bag, I think one of the guppies was attacked by the fighting fish, because when we let him into the tank, his back tail had been bitten off. He didn't survive very long. Now the other guppy looks a bit lonely, so we might try and get a few more to keep him company.

We also bought a Kettle BBQ and a 10ft trampoline!

The BBQ was first order of the day, but thankfully Jon came around and started on the trampoline, much to the delight of the children, lol.

I suffer with the heat, and Saturday night went to bed very hot and headache brewing, which was annoying for Sunday morning! However, it was a little cooler in the afternoon so we finished off the trampoline.

I've booked a couple of weeks off in July, so we'll see if we can go away for a few of those days somewhere.. not sure where that will be yet though!!

I still need a break I think !

I need a break

I think I've figured out that I need a break.

A break from everybody, except Natalie.

Don't get me wrong, I love my children. But sometimes it's good to have some time to yourselves. And the last holiday we had was a week away in January, and I still felt pressured to be with others and do things with others.

So maybe a night away somewhere might help.

The beginning

Well, I thought it was about time I started writing down my thoughts.

I've written some fictional stories with a friend, and used a blog for that, but it's about time I used this catalyst of "blogging" for storing my feelings and thoughts.

Maybe others will read it. Maybe I'll just keep this private. The point is that my feelings get expressed, instead of being held inside. That's gotta be good.

So we start... Stay tuned.. ;)
