Life is good again….
A month or so ago I wrote about taking Miss Frugal to the hospital to see a specialist about the headaches and dizzy spells she's been having. The specialist we saw spent a good hour examining her and then sent her to play with the toys before telling us that he'd been examining her to look for signs of a brain tumour as some of the symptoms she described pointed to that. She said she didn't think that was what was causing the dizzy spells and headaches as she was missing some of the main signs. She had an ECG and they told us to come back in a month and they would consider a brain scan if … [Read more...]
What I don’t want my children to know….
I want what every parent wants - for my children to grow up feeling safe and loved but also confident and independent. I think I've mastered the safe and loved bit but as a natural born worrier, I have to try really hard to encourage the kids to be confident and independent which is really difficult for me.

My Laminated List….

Michael Buble 2. Jensen Ackles (Supernatural)3. Jared Padelicki (Supernatural)4. Gordon Ramsay5. Dermot O'Leary You can read everyone elses lists at Kate Takes 5 but I think we can all agree that my list won't … [Read more...]
Sorry….
I sent Miss Frugal to bed this morning after a quiet game of Lego Star Wars somehow ended up with Master Frugal being stabbed with a mini Lego lightsaber and screaming so loud that you would have thought that his whole arm had been chopped off!About five minutes later, I got a text from Miss Frugal (yes, she has her own phone) telling me to check my e mails....On her way upstairs, she'd sneakily grabbed her laptop (which she's normally only allowed to use in the same room as me) and was now apologising by e mail. Master Frugal read the e mails she'd sent him, decided to forgive … [Read more...]
