Love/Hate Blogger Challange

I'm so pleased I have been nominated for this by the lovely Clare at  Sons Sand And Sauvignon as I'm intrigued myself what I'll come up with..

The challenge is simple, to list 10 things you love and 10 you hate.

And it gives readers a chance to see a bit more behind the blogger at the other end of the screen.

So here we go!



10 things I love

My husband and beautiful girls 

Festivals

Eating a piece of chocolate followed quickly by a ready salted crisp. Yes. Seriously. 

The feeling and noise of turning a page over in a book when you have pressed down quite hard on your pen. It crinkles. 

Diaries and note books. 

My girls giving me hugs out of their own accord.

Writing.

Music and dancing. 

Custard. 


     Baths that are far too hot  


10 things I hate

Feeling sick.

Soap operas. 

Dust in my children's bedrooms.

People who don't say thank you.

Unvarnished toenails (just my own!) 

Me with short hair. 

Stew.

Rushing.

Having a list of unfinished tasks. 

      Sitting in a dark room with the TV on.





There you go. Slightly random maybe, but honest! It's quite good fun thinking of all the things that float your boat.

So now I nominate these wonderful peeps....

Large families. Lady in the line.

When I had two children, the lady in the line didn't bat an eye lid.  When I had two children people walked past me, I blended in nicely to what they deemed as socially acceptable.  I didn't cause a stir.  When I was pregnant with my third daughter, my youngest was only just perfecting her ability to put one foot in front of the other.  The looks started, the comments of 'how would I cope' followed, and the very endearing 'I just couldn't do it, I'd go insane'  Aaahh, cute, thank you for that helpful insight into your family planning. I just wanted to give those people a great big kiss, go sit and have a Costa with them, and hear all the concerns they have for me and my family.   And then after take my Tomme Tipee bottle warmer out of my hold-all sized change bag and smack them round the head with it.  Little darlings.  Hey, I'm a chatter, I'm a people person, I'll talk to you about my kids, I'm even one of those that will let you touch m

The Blogger Interview

So here you can delve a little into my history with blogging, what I'm hoping for and what my opinions are on a couple of areas! I have been nominated by the lovely Jemma over at the rather fabulous  Living Life Nottingham  to answer the questions below. Here I go: How did you get into blogging? It was about 4 months ago, it feels like a lot longer though! It just happened that one day I was reading an article on  Mother Pukka  and for some reason I decided to send in one of the many pieces I had stored in the 'notes' section of my iPhone. I would just write them for fun when the moment took me. And so I sent it and the lovely Anna said she would like to publish it! I was completely shocked and couldn't even give links to a blog etc, so the next night I went and set one up! And that was that and here I am now! What advice would you give to a blogger just starting out? Get on Twitter! I had never been a member but thought it was the best place to get to know s

An open letter to Pinterest

We've had good times, great times, some of the best.  But here's the thing. I'm not quite sure how to say this, I need to break up with you.  Wow. This is tougher than I thought. Remember our Elsa themed party last summer?! You showed me how to erect a giant 'pin the carrot on Olaf' You held my hand whilst I wrote 237 stickers saying 'melted snow' on bottles of water... For a party of kids that couldn't read yet.  Good times.  You've been there for me Pinterest,  2am ,  4am , any hour of my sleepless nights, I could count on you to show me a wooden pallet bench that only took 5 steps to make.  It gave me a project, a focus. And we know I love one of those.  All I needed was pallets, a hammer, nails, circular saw, sander, varnish, and, well my husband to do it.. It was going to be immense.  I pinned it. I pinned you. I'd pin all of you, but I try to be selective, realistic, if you will.
