Wowzers
Has it really been a month? I guess I do have a habit of letting time slip away from me, especially between writing! This year has flown by, and I’m trying to think about all the things I wanted to happen this year versus what has actually taken place. I was hoping for a vastly…

An Insane Christmas (Eve)
Happy Holidays everyone! I bet yesterday was the most unproductive work day for people who actually had to work. I spent the majority of my time in the office doing some testing on our newsletters to get the spam score down. Not a very easy task when your content is all sales, finance and money…

Insanity Round 1 Day 3
Thank god today was Cardio Recovery!! Half an hour of stretching and yoga poses, along with a few core, balance and leg moves thrown in for good measure. I was still sweating at the end of it, but it felt really nice and here’s hoping tomorrow I’m less sore!! I had a nice long soak…

We’re off to see the wizard…
London this time of year is absolute mayhem. So. Many. People. Our weekend didn’t get off to the best start, when we were ready to go to the train station Hubby’s car decided it would refuse to start. Not a nice way to start any day. 🙁 We managed to get it moved and my…

The Holidays are Upon us
I know it’s only November 11th, but when you live outside of the US the holiday season comes early and is, in my opinion anyway, more joyful because there aren’t 3 holidays crammed into less than 10 weeks. Take Halloween as an example. It is celebrated here, but not even close to on the same…

The Most Wonderful Time of the Year!
That’s right, folks! It’s December!! This is my favourite month. Always has been, always will be. It’s the month of presents (for me!) since it’s my birthday and Christmas this month. We’ve had loads of snow/ice already as well, which makes it so much more wonderful. I seem to be in the minority of people…

Overwhelmed
That pretty much sums up the month of September for me. Hubby’s parents decided to move to Spain, have already sold their house and now have to be out by the end of the month. Hubby’s Gran is also going with them! We had a friend and her two kids round for the weekend last…

MIA
I know I have been MIA for a while. I’d love to say it’s because so much has happened in the past month, but that just isn’t true. I have been busy, most with work and also with getting things around the house done in preparation for the holidays. Most things culminated this weekend –…

Merry X-Mas
Well today marks the first Christmas I’ve spent 1) in England, 2) with hubby (and married for that matter!), and 3) away from any of my own family. 1) Christmas in England is not much different than Christmas in the US. The UK has Christmas crackers and not so much Christmas TV. I miss Frosty…
