Alive & well

Doesn't time fly?

It's been a while, I feel quite ashamed. Not even checking my hotmail to see some heartfelt messages enquiring into my whereabouts and wondering if I am OK. I know that feeling when blogging pals suddenly vanish for a while....you do wonder... I didn't intend to be gone so long. It's just that summer rolled on and quite frankly the chances to blog just got taken up with being away - my daughter had two more weeks at the back clinic in Suffolk, being away again - we visited Ireland and traced some of hubby's family roots, and more being away - 3 weeks at the base in Malta. Then home to the frantic business of getting everyone ready to go back to school. This exercise requires nerves of steel and a very fat cheque book. All three at different schools, two of them at new ones, getting ones head around the requirements of each system is quite a feat, but we managed.

Now I am training my youngest, who has just begun secondary, how to go to and from school whilst remembering the correct books, kit, watch, key, head, flies done up...you know the kind of thing. Girls are so much easier in this respect.

I have my dog home. He wants walking. Yes the cheek of it. I just got soaked for his benefit. Bless him, he doesn't expect much.

Then there's the business of trying to find a house. Oh and of course Mr. Reasons is hardly ever here so that little gem of a task is for moi aussi. So there you go, I am not complaining, all is good, just a busy bee. So now I am back and will be posting again as often as possible.

I don't really want to be going on about me, I am so keen to see how you all are. So will be off to visit lots of blogs over the next week.
