Hello again…
I am back. Yes, finally. It has been a few long weeks since I last wrote an entry and even then the last one was just a half hearted attempt at trying to keep up. I decided to take an unannounced hiatus am very happy to say that I have come out on the other side and yes, indeed, there is a light and it is on! And this time, no one stole the light bulb!
So hopefully, I will get more time to write a bit more. I no longer want to bitch as much, life is just too short. In my roller coaster ride that was the first three months of 2009, I did learn a few important little lessons - take some time, sleep late, smell the roses, enjoy the view!
So hello again…



I am an 'almost middle-aged' stay at home mom who moved from South Africa to England in 2002 with Hubby and eldest daughter. Had another girl in the UK and in 2006 we all moved from England to the USA. We have a mixed bag of accents in our house (along with three American cats - no they don't meow with an accent!) and a whole lot of different experiences that make living in our home exciting and really busy.
Welcome back.
thanks Shawna – it feels good to be back!
