Here's hoping for a rest!

Have finally managed to get my daughter's birthday present. After trekking around the town, I've had no luck and decided to drive the 25miles to Milton Keynes. Lucy is mad on LEGO and they do have a LEGO shop there. I was in luck, lots to choose from and even bumped into my sister (who lives in Northampton like me) was a complete surprise but we managed to find time to have a coffee together. As she works, and I run around after my 3 (and my fiance) it was nice for us to stop for once and chat. I am saddened to hear of the death of Wendy Richard today, and I really feel for her family and close friends. She was certainly very brave and dignified. My fiance was working overnight last night and Lucy ended up in bed with me, she hates him being away overnight and finds it hard to sleep, hopefully she will sleep tonight, but then there are 2 more children, so one of them may well end up with me too!! Will I ever get the duvet to myself!! lolIts my birthday on Sunday and Lucy's on Monday. I will never forget spending my birthday in labour with her.....36hrs and she still refused to come out! I think she makes up for her laziness now as she never stops...talking or moving about! 4/5 weeks to go til the Easter hols, the girls have only been back at school for 4 days and are already looking forward to the next break!Maybe on Sunday I will get a lie in.........maybe? I live in hope!! lol

Hello

All new to this and really have no idea what I am doing! I guess it would be good to write down all the ups and downs life brings(and there have been many) and be able to look back on it all. Did try to write a diary, but due to problems with my memory (will explain sometime) I kept forgetting where I left it! Have just celebrated my son's 2nd birthday and he is currently very busy with all his new toys. Spend my life running around after everyone, so am looking for something that is just for me...and maybe a way to maintain some sort of sanity....although I reckon all that flies out of the window when you have kids. Bit of a quieter day today, which is rare, although there are still many things on my 'to do list' but am gradually crossing things off. Hope this all works as I'm hoping!
