BUSY WEEK... GOD HELP ME NEXT WEEK!

Hi everyone

Sorry, have been so busy this week with marketing my website and making new things and keeping up with three lunatic kids......

Half term = nightmare, but I am going to think positive this time. Hopefully this sunshine should last and they will be outside most of the time.

If you have any fun FREE ideas that you do with your kids, just let me know. Everything costs a fortune to do in this country with three kids and they all want to do different things.

I think we might need to go on some bike rides.... that will be a laugh.... might order some oxygen tanks first (for me). Gotta get fit though for my summer holiday, cause at the moment I resemble a large white whale..... just need the motivation. I think I might hunt out a picture of me when I was skinny (pre-child bearing days) and stick it on the fridge.... great idea.... right going to hunt through the photo albums.

Hope you all have a fun weekend.

SUMMER DIET HERE WE COME

Wow am I glad it is Monday. These kids have drove me nuts this weekend, I keep blaming the sunshine, but I think that is my excuse, they are just horrible.

My twins are at eachother's throats most of the time. The house looked like someone had burgled it this morning..... washing everywhere..... walked in grass..... millions of ants.... which I am going to committ mass murder on today.

Oh well, as usual the hot weather is not going to last. I have just booked another craft fair for July to get some pennies for my long awaited holiday to Spain. This year we are going for the summer, but without hubby for a couple of weeks, he has too much to do here. Shame, but somebody has to entertain the kids.... ha ha......

The diet must begin today... I look like a beached whale and the thought of exposing myself in a swimming costume just makes me feel sick. I have got to loose 2 stone is 9 weeks, can it be done.... too right it can. Just going to look for a good diet online now and off down the shops.

My diet plan and lost weight will be monitored on here, so cheating for me.

God I am going to be moody doing this.

THE THINGS THEY SAY!!

My son informed me today that he would like to be adopted by another family... you may ask why?? Well I only said that he should stay in a few evenings next week and get on with his project for school. You would have thought I had asked him to have his leg amputated..... talk about freak out........

I told him I would be happy to pack his bags for him but only the actual things he has paid for..... this would be very little.

He decided he didn't want to be adopted at this point. Yes son, you know where your bread is buttered, I said.

I think this unexpected heatwave affects kids moods.... they are unbeliveably moody at the best of times... but this makes it much worse. Let's see what tomorrow brings. Night x

TIME TO DE-FUZZ....BEST PRODUCTS PLEASE..

OMG with all this gorgeous weather we are having it seems it's time to get the razors out.... well hedge trimmers in my case. My legs have not seen sunlight since last August so they look like oak trees..... only joking they are not that bad.

If anyone has a great product for removing these horrible leg hairs let me know. I have tried loads of things in the past and waxing is just not for me.... I am a complete wuss when it comes to pain. The trouble is that leads to other maintenance....like toe nails and chapped heels... Christ this sounds so exhausting.

Would do anything for a pedicure.... but I don't think anyone in their right mind would want to touch my disgusting feet. They are such ugly things really when you look at them.

Time to go and buy some open toed shoes..... best get the paint out first though.

Have a fun afternoon. Laurie x

OMG I DON'T BELIEVE IT

I have Jeremy Kyle on in the background as I am working.... well unbeliveable, these people are nuts.... I do believe I am totally sane after watching these freaks.

Why would you want the world to know about your mother taking drugs, your boyfriend sleeping with your mother, whose baby is it?? Jesus, get a life..... I cannot believe that the TV Channel actually pay for this tripe to be on out TV's and pay Jeremy Kyle for shouting at them all. We could all do his job, if given half the chance.

They get DNA tests for FREE, lie detectors, counselling and God only knows what else, I wonder who is paying for all that.

Do these people not know that they are just exposing and embarrassing themselves in front on millions of people. Surely we could put something better on in the mornings. Come on Eamon and Ruth at least they talk some sense, not that I watch telly all day.... it's just on in the background.

Enough ranting and back to work. Laurie x

THE THREE HORRORS




Thought I better introduce the three horrors I keep moaning about...... Mia, my mad football fanatic daughter, her twin Niamh, couldn't get much different, girly girl, and Zac my little man, the most annoying, but gorgeous son ever!!

BIT OF SUN AND OUT COMES THE FLESH.....

OMG I can't believe it is nearly June, this year has flown by so fast. Just deciding whether to live in England for the summer holidays or go to Spain for a month.... decisions, decisions. The kids would be bored silly here and probably cost more to stay in England. At least we can guarantee the weather and a pool on tap.

That's that then, off to Spain we go.... which reminds me, got to get 2 passports sorted as they have ran out. That is something to moan about £125.00 to get mine and my son's passports renewed....scandalous.

Right better get onto that today, because knowing us they will go on strike or something. We are driving down so no worries about Volcanic Ash stopping me.

Better get on a crash diet too..... I look fat, pasty, and to be quite honest disgusting..... time to get the fake tan out I think.

Why is it when we get a bit of sun, all the horrible, white bodies come out. People obviously don't have a full length mirror anywhere in their houses.

Right got a Summer Fair to go to tomorrow with all my jewellery and bits so better get started on that. Have a fun day in the sun and remember your sun screen!!

PEACE PERFECT PEACE

Oh wait, spoke to soon..... my 10 year old has just said there is nothing to eat, I am starving..... the fridge is full..... huff huff, slam the fridge door......

It is 10pm why are you always eating this late at night..... strange child. Mind you he would rather starve than lift a finger to get something for himself. Is that a boy thing or is he just a lazy sod???? I think the latter.

Right that is it, he needs to go to sleep and so do I before I murder him.

Nighty Night xx

WHY DON'T MEN TELL U??

Why is that a man has a mobile phone, but dosen't use it to let you know they are going to be late. Well I for one am sick of it.... another dinner ruined, well the dog has ate most of it. Serves him right... Christ I am moaning again... can't help it.

I'll be back in an hour, ye right, that means 2 hours, starving, filthy and moody too. What joy being a wife, mother and general Cinderella.... one day my prince will come (dreaming again).............zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

MOODY MOODY KIDS

Christ, it must be the sunshine, but my daughter has come out of school like a bear with a sore head.... nothing new there then!

For nine, she is the moodiest child I have ever known. I could quite easily throttle her at times. Nothing is right, down to the popcorn I had bought, there is never anything in the fridge that is right, even though it is full......

God help me when she reaches puberty and to top it all she is a twin, so I will have it double.... can't wait (not).

I sometimes wonder why I bother at all. I think I will put it down to the heat today, should be getting hotter tomorrow so will look forward to her being in a worse mood... can't wait.

Signing off now to cook dinner, I suppose that will be wrong or not not good enough.... will let you know later.

MAD MOMS UNITE

Hi Everyone

This is my first blog about motherhood!! Needed somewhere to vent my rants and raves, feel free to do the same.

I have three children, 1 boy Zac nearly 11, and twin girls, Mia and Niamh both 9. It is like world war III in our house most days, but they make me mad, make me laugh, and make me completely insane.

I get 6 hours of peace per day when they are at school to work/cook/clean and generally cinderella around the place.

Well the sun is out all my kids are healthy, so most people would say I have nothing to moan about.... but that don't stop me.

1 more hour and the second phase of World War III starts until bedtime. Please feel free to rant and rave about anything motherly on here, just so that I know I am not the only lunatic on the planet.
