It's all good fun and games till someone gets poo'ed on!

Well that is exactly how I feel, I am currently moving job locations from a very small 2.3 mile journey to 24.0 miles on the M1 something I am not looking forward to at all. However during my meeting yesterday I was dumbfounded to find out that according to my new work (that are going to be paying me a travel allowance for all the extra travelling I am going to have to do) I live 5.6 miles from my current job. Pants is all I have to say, followed by "it takes me 25 minutes to walk it, so unless I am an olympic gold medallist walker then your calculations are wrong"

Hopefully this will be sorted and I won't have to prove the distance my driving them in my car to my house but I should warn them unless they sort it then that is what I will do!

I'm now trying desperately to think of something bright and breezy to prove that normally I am a very happy person but as I am failing miserably instead I will write a selection of happy words and leave you with the promise that I will go off and do something great and exciting so that I can journal something happy and photo it to put it on here! Sunshine, kittens, yellow (urgh), pink, babies, tea, lying in bed, champagne, tattoo's (ok maybe that one is more for me) ha ha holidays! that should do it!

    Nope fraid not still sounds miserable - although if you want a change from the norm try my 'stressed' chat on my blog tonight - maybe we could link to all the other strangely not happy but amazingly true blogs out there - any chance you'll give yourself some art journaling to do on this front or are you too busy - off to paint - something - anything doesn't matter what

    Oh no! That does suck...having a long commute to work is never good but think of all the music you'll be able to listen to in the car and fabby journal pages you'll create with all the frustration you'll be feeling with the traffic...every cloud,sweetie!?!

    Do they have walking as an event in the Olympics..? If they had whinging, then Harry would definitely win the mood he's in today. Away to break out the Playdough and see if he can work through it...! xx

First ever post!

I thought I would get myself a blog, as Virginia enjoys it so much and Jude awarded me a blog award so thought I should do something to deserve it. Still not entirely sure if i will have anything of interest to write but I'll let you lot be the judge of that! Well it's mother's day and my lovely daughter bought me a card some flowers and a teddy. The card has a badge on that I am at this very moment wearing it makes me look very special but my daughter is happy so that's the main thing! I am wondering about how to fit more things into my day there doesn't seem to be enough hours in a day. Virginia and my mum have done loads of art journalling and I don't seem to have done any. I recently have got a boyfriend and so I have dramatically less time than I used to have. So now I have had a little waffle i'm going, but will be back xxx

Anyone who gets easily upset don't read this blog it's a little depressing, apologies!

Well I received my decree absolute through the post, I knew it was coming, I knew that it was well over due to happen but when I read that letter I'll be honest first thing I did was cry. I told myself to stop being silly I told everyone it was just because I knew my daughter would feel emotional about it. However, I was also a little sad for myself. The worse thing is at the end you can't help but look at the beginning. He was my first boyfriend, he was my best friend and we were very happy, sometimes, but often we weren't we were so young and trying so hard. But financially we were always counting the pennie's and there were never enough and so rather than working together we started to resent each other. Eventually we had both had enough and we split very amicably 5 years ago. This morning when I received the letter, I first beat myself up emotionally telling myself I should have tried harder not given up so easily. Then I started to wonder what my life over the las
