Tool Box

June 24th, 2007

I think I need to get Owen a stainless steel tool box. It has to be stainless steel as I will stick it out in the shed. It has to have many compartments so it will always remain neat and easy to access. It needs to look cool or Owen won’t be interested. It needs to hold tool! Hopefully that will mean that we can build a tool set and won’t have tools all over the house!

Madeleine McCann sighted in Malta!

June 24th, 2007

Is it not odd that Madeleine was spotted in Malta! It feels like they are being given hope. Let’s hope its not false hope!

Syndicate

June 24th, 2007

I can bet you heard of the national lottery and the huge amounts you can win. I am also sure that you probably heard of syndicates. This is where people pool together to buy larger quanities of tickets to increase the chances of winning. The amount they would spend would be the same as though they would buy a ticket or two for themselves. When a ticket in the syndicate fund wins, the winnings are shared. Often syndicates are found within families and at work. But not everyone has access to a syndicate. So if you really want to stand a chance to win and don’t have a syndicate… you may want to join an e-Lottery Syndicate. An online syndicate. The biggest drawback is having to share your winnings. On the other hand a shared winning is far better than not winning at all! Mind you, better still is not losing any money at all – if you get my drift!

Naomi & Richard

June 24th, 2007

Naomi & Richard came to visit this weekend. It was really nice having them over. It was really funny because Arthur would give Naomi a kiss but when it came to Richard, he would turn his face away. We’ve known for a while now, Arthur likes his “girls” and this goes to prove it!

Colouring

June 19th, 2007

I found some Free Coloring Pages? for Arthur. I am sure that he will really enjoy them. He has really taken to drawing. It keeps him really occupied too. Give him colours and paper and you have a very happy munchkin.

I recently bought him a colouring book. He loved colouring it. It was quite amazing when he started colouring. Obviously he did not keep within the lines… but he did seem to colour the picture area rather than just scribble. Considering that he is only 17 months old. Leave me rather impressed.

Anyway, I found this place which allows me to download and print pictures, which Arthur? can colour in. They do everything from Disney characters such as Winnie the? Pooh and the Little Mermaid to Scooby Doo, My Little Pony and animae (like the picture below). I do think the picture below is really pretty. It really reminds me of Desi’s drawings. She has always had? this amazing talent for this style of picture. I must let her know about this website. Perhaps she could submit her drawings.

Though I must say, my favourite are the alphabet pictures. Arthur gets to learn at the same time as having fun. Isn’t Mummy sneaky?

Movies

June 14th, 2007

I enjoy watching movies. Sadly I do not get to go to the cinema as much as I would like to because of having to arrange baby sitters and the likes. However, I have? found a solution. I found? a movie collector site? which gives details of movies. This means that I can chose whatever movies I want and then order them to watch on TV when Arthur is in bed. Now for that Projector!

Another Hint!

June 14th, 2007

I like things that smell pretty. I do not want or mean aftershave? as that is for men!

I adore classics, especially number 5!

And you do not have to cross the Chanel to get what I want!

Have you guessed what I am after?

Hurry – you are running out of time… My Birthday is tomorrow!?

Holiday Inn

June 12th, 2007

This is why I like the Holiday Inn….


Free Kids Activities- Holiday Inn SunSpree Resorts

I cannot wait to get to Ireland. We will be staying at the Crowne Plaza. :)

Sleepless

June 8th, 2007

I so wish I could manage without sleep. There is so much that I need to do and so little time. I need to blog but cannot manage much while Arthur is awake. I need to get my sitting room in order, but as soon as I start Arthur brings every toy out again. Very discouraging. And an even bigger problem is….. I am sooooo tired!

Rehab

June 3rd, 2007

As I keep mentioning, there is no problem with actually making a mistake as long as you learn from it and correct your errors. Drugs are often experimented with by teenagers. Sometimes, this experimenting, well goes a step too far and people end up using hard drugs and getting addicted.

Thankfully, there are drug rehabilitation? places where you can get help. Often places like Stone Hawk are run by people who have experienced rehabilitation, which is why they have highly successful treatment and rates.

With the right counselling and treatment, you are just one step away from being an ex addict.
