To anyone out there who hasn't yet given my blog up for dead; thank you - I'm back.
I cannot believe my last post was in June.
Simply far too much and far too little has happened for me to give a blow by blow account but the abbreviated version of my life recently is as below....
Pictures are; Ella dressed up in uniform (thank you Aunty Karen) for the WW2 rememberance march in the town square. Theo sulking without uniform as only year 4 and above get to march!
Dom with his toy of the moment; Mr potato head and Dom again, helping mummy bake a cake...and Daddy with his two boys....
July 08; My lovely brother and sister in law came to visit with their children...a good time was had by all; despite the fact it makes us miss them more....Mini Golf continued to hot up as the month progessed. Children all well. Duncan losing his sanity whilst playing mum 6 nights a week!
August 08; so very very busy at work; losing kilos every week and discovering lost calf muscles. Great!!! Other sister and brother in law visit Crete for the first time; again a lovely week and a brilliant trip to Aqua Plus...get out your bank loan though!! Dom was 2 and Theo became 6; my boys are growing up; sob!
September 08; Yippee! Kids back to school; Theo started proper primary school; big boy now! Racing around the playground chasing Ella who would have much rather played french skipping with her mates! Oh the perils of younger brothers!! Dominic all well and enjoying abit of one to one with mummy every morning....
October 08; finished work at the very end of this month. It was dragging on in the end I must admit. Dug out my knitting and sewing and 'spring cleaned' the house....
November 08; Spent all my summer earnings on Xmas presents and winter clothing. Had all my long hair cut off into a very fetching (or so I'm told!!) crop....Dom had all hospital appts for the six months; is doing fine. Theo and Ella making more and more friends and going round each others houses to play plus Ella has started Art classes in Neapoli so I am a 4x4 mum (so my mum reckons) but sadly without the 4x4.
My dad is moving house to be closer to us so he is painting the new place. Duncans dad moves to live in Crete tommorow; staying with us. Quite bizarre really but it really is becoming little Britain for us!! (NOT the tv series).
Have been doing lots more knitting etc. Spending more time with the kids but still managing the occasional boozy night out with Duncan and friends (have to show off that new hairdo and all my new clothes; shh! Don't tell my mum!!)
Very sad in the last week reading about this BabyP case in all the papers. Must admit to shedding plenty of tears for him. If only we had a magic wand....
Anyhow I hope to post more soon. Enjoy the photos....
