Okay, I confess it, I'm writing about cats again. But only because I simply have to. Or rather, because I'm trying to kill two birds with one stone. A) We're on holiday in the Isle of Mull (Scotland) and I needed to write an instruction letter to my daughter's friend about how to feed our … Continue reading Fantastic Cats and How to Feed Them
Exit Stage Left
This coming Monday, I am taking my youngest child to her first drama class (since giving up gymnastics. Yay!). And I’m not sure why, but I’m apprehensive for her. I know she’s a little bit concerned about being ‘the new girl’ again – who wouldn’t be? But she’s such a lovely, bubbly character, I’m … Continue reading Exit Stage Left
Let’s Get Quizzical
The time of year has come again for the annual and much celebrated ‘Pop Quiz’ held at my daughter’s primary school. Yay! I have a bit of a thing for quizzes; I like to exercise my knowledge (or lack of) against others whenever possible. And I particularly like pop quizzes as I’ve always had a … Continue reading Let’s Get Quizzical
Note to Self
In recent months, I’ve noticed a number of vloggers and bloggers writing or reading an open ‘Letter/Note to My Younger/Former Self’ (sometimes it's future self [Captain Kirt, Rahul Singh]) It’s an exercise in writing a letter to your childhood/juvenile self; things you would like to tell the mini-you of a bygone era if you had the chance. … Continue reading Note to Self
Aaaaaand that’s a wrap!
Fiddly-dee *prances about like a slightly weird and not-in-the-least-bit cute foal*! The day has finally come! My trilogy of books is complete and available to all the world for a very reasonable price! The third and final book in the saga (as you can see) is called 'Foreign Affairs'. I'm so excited about actually finishing a … Continue reading Aaaaaand that’s a wrap!
You couldn’t make it up…
As far as I’m concerned, it isn’t the norm for me to write about things that drive me absolutely insane. Well, I have on a couple of occasions, but I don’t believe ranting is my ‘thing’ either. But the other evening, I was caused to become so irate about a certain matter that a scathing … Continue reading You couldn’t make it up…
Two
Today, the 11th February, is the second anniversary of my blog. Which I suppose is kind of cool. I was all set to write an upbeat, gong-banging, self congratulatory post. But for some reason, I don't feel wildly pumped about this milestone. I guess two years in the blogging game is nothing to be sniffed at … Continue reading Two
Miss Adele’s Feeling for Snow
It may seem a tad usual to write a blog about snow, coming from a country that doesn't get a great deal of it. And where I live, in the South West of England, we get even less. And thank the Lord and all that is holy for that! I don't like snow. I’m sorry, … Continue reading Miss Adele’s Feeling for Snow
All in the Game
I'll admit straight away that I've written about the various social media platforms before (here). I've written about everything before. But I wrote about them a month into my blogging career (which is almost exactly 2 years ago - I might write a post about that in early February, I'll definitely be scratching around for … Continue reading All in the Game
Crazy Cat Lady 2
Almost a year ago, I wrote a blog called, ‘Crazy Cat Lady’. This blog performed exceedingly well – for some time it was ranked as my ‘most liked post’. It's still in second place even now. It got shared on Flipboard. I personally didn’t share it there, I didn’t even know what Flipboard was at … Continue reading Crazy Cat Lady 2
