Still Busy

Yes I'm still busy, too busy to blog. But I have added another link at the right hand side of my blog with some of my favourite links to websites and shops. I'm promoting this as I try to slowly change our household over to more ecofriendly products and way of living. We are even going to sell my car and just have one family car! Shall be interesting to see how we cope with that change. And no doubt I'll blog about it. But for now I wanted to say a big thanks to everyone who has kept asking after my mum. She's doing a lot better now, and now doubt over the following months she will be regaining her strength. She's still yet to see the cardiologist, but otherwise she's fine.

Toodle pip everyone

Ooops

time does fly when you're having fun/working your backside off/getting ready to study a part-time degree/preparing for red-tag in Tae Kwon Do/cooking/cleaning/making a retro taggie/shopping and I mean clothes shopping/organising play dates/organising school meetings/Governors Meetings/buying and sending birthday presents/organising a girls only night out at a posh restaurant/jogging twice a week/making sure my bank account is safe after HM Revenue lost precious data/reading up on latest laptops, webcams and media centres oh and baking banana choc-chip muffins.

Boy and thats all in one week.

Is it any wonder that sometimes I do forget things?

New Year, New What...

Well its been busy to say the least. Mum came out of hospital just in time for Christmas, and I think that was the best Christmas present our family got this year. We spent 3 days with my folks after Christmas and we also managed to squeeze in a short visit to Aberdeen to see some old friends. So good to see everyone in such a short space of time.

Anyway we saw in New Year at a friends house and had a great time, I only had 2 drinks and was glad that I didn't have a hangover like I had earlier in the week at Lorna's house!
We are also still awaiting the arrival of GrandKiddy Scott Number 2. So I'm sending some "hurry up baby" and "good birth" vibes to Rob and Suzy, and I can't wait to hear from them with some good news about their new baby.

I've just had a lovely day of bowling with Lisa & Paul and family , and Liz & Jez and family! 12 of us went bowling though only 2 had to sit out as they were too young (Emily and the very very young and new born Phoebe - she's such a cute baby, she made me feel slightly broody). Ok I have to say that I totally sucked at bowling (out of the 10 playing I came last equal with Phoebe) so me thinks some practice is needed before I send out another email with a challenge to more bowling. Ahem onto other things, many thanks to Liz and Jez for kindly providing a lovely lunch too. I shall return the favour soon I hope.
