Who is soon to become the big 40.

I have known her for nearly 20 years. She has had a hard life. Horrible parents... snooty brother... not a lot of money...no luck with men... husband who nearly caused her a breakdown before he left her to live with another woman...she has a much wanted child who has never actually seen her scummy Dad... friends who have mostly moved away... So she is a working, single mum who struggles.

She is someone who has been at all the pivotal...

If you are reading this cos you think I am going on about wanking- well you are wrong (you bunch of sex -starved pervs) I want to talk about proper house-related DIY.

Im fed up with it!

We got our house 4 years ago. It was live- able, but needed work on the house and the garden. When we discovered that I was having twins we thought 'lets put a large two story extension on the side'. Why not? We just love throwing away money...

The existing garage and outbuildings...

We went to Bournemouth beach today. Mr R was working, so Edmond kindly gave up his time to help me with my 3 munchkins, as they love him.

Day was ok, bit cold/cloudy but they were happy digging in the sand and paddling. I was putting Brodie's shoes on and I looked up and Ella had gone. The beach was quite empty and I scanned it and she was no where to be seen. She can have only been gone for 5 mins.

Edmond sprinted off to look. I made the other 2 sit still on the towels...

What a great weekend! And yes, I am a little tipsy as I write this - hell yes ok, i could be described as slightly p*****.

Any how... I am aloud as it is my 7th Wedding anniversary today! I wanted to blog about love and how great it is... Not just with your partner, but with your friends -real true good friends, your kids, family and even people who you dont know that well who just make you smile. Hell even my 'buddies' on FH and FFM. It really is what it is all about.
