Back again

After a very busy few months, and after house cleaning my mind, I  finally tap away again and meander across my blog pages. Oh how I have missed this. Thanks to hell breaking loose in many fashions, none of which included Jimmy Choo shoes, Pickles and I have had a much needed rest and are back with a vengeance.

Oh it feels like home here.

Thank You Mum

Thank You Mum

You know the thing I love about writing a blog is that it challenges you to dig deep, be completely honest and tell the truth about how you feel. Even with the knowledge that thousands of people will be reading all about you! But without this thought I don’t think my life would be as charming.

I have been in love with David Cook’s new song Permanent for two months now. I play it over and over whenever I get the chance. Pickles hears it on my iPhone and always comes running. She loves it too.

Repeating actions: Pickles first intentional attention seeking.

“Ahhhhhhhh” I heard coming from under my feet. Looking down I noticed Pickles little leg had slid under the toy box. It wasn’t hurting but her little squeal was from feeling very unsure about having her leg stuck. ‘How do I get my leg out’ was the look in her big blue eyes peering up at me.

“Oh sweety are you OK” I started as I leant down to pull her leg out. She looked down at her leg as I slid it out from under the box and lifted her up for a consoling cuddle. She immediately pulled herself out of my grip. As much as I love cuddles all the time and probably give her way too many, Pickles is Miss Independent rolled with a bit of Miss Tough and Miss Adventurous, so they generally don’t last long or if at all when she has other things on her mind.
