Am I taking this too seriously???

Oh how foolish I was to think that I wanted to move house. Because it’s not just the moving, is it? You don’t pick a house, sell yours the following day then tele-port all your stuff a la Star Trek and get on with the painting and decorating, do you? It’s all coming back to [...]

Wake Up and Smell the Coffee thinks I’m all welcoming and thoughtful and courteous and has bestowed upon me a lovely new award. As I have a visit from the Rentals (in-laws) on Sunday I should have told to to wait until next week! But seriously, thanks to my manager, my husband, my dog, my [...]
