Dirk From Next Door is a lovely guy. He’s very smiley, happy, friendly, chatty and likeable. I saw the real contrast in our personalities tonight, when, at a barbeque at Richie Rich’s house, he approached a group of people he didn’t know and just introduced himself and started to talk to them.

Went round to Joy’s tonight - her hubby, The Climber, is away, and she fancied a girls’ night in with pizza and silly chat. Was greeted at the door by the sound of Mini Joy (her 3-year-old) screaming blue murder from upstairs, Betsy (another of the dying species of Single Girls From Church) hovering uncomfortably in the hallway, and Joy zooming around [...]

Err… sure.
Should probably tell you at this point that E1, [...]

Why is it that I absolutely cannot get out of bed until I’ve hit the snooze button at least 5 times? My planned morning sounds so mature, responsible and even godly:
7.15am - Alarm goes off.

7.40am [...]

Sundays would be fantastic if it weren’t for the thought of Monday morning. The sense of impending doom just takes away from the otherwise relaxed, comfy ambiance.
Have to say, I am particularly enjoying the fact that our communion time - once a 10.30am experience - now happens in the evening service, meaning that I don’t [...]

Hey - someone actually read my blog!
I must confess, I only started it to put off all the things I had to do re: moving house, and then forgot all about it when I entered my nervous breakdown concerning the actual process of moving house. Didn’t think anyone noticed I was here in the first [...]
