So it's been a month since the big move. It already feels like this is home. I remember my mum saying that when they walked into the house they bought when they got married they just both knew.

Time for some self care…..
Yesterday for the first time in more than 6 months I went and got my hair cut. I've been putting it off unable to justify a) the time and b) the cost.

With this has come many a fall - mainly just onto her bum bum. No where is safe now. Our previously… Continue reading Clumsier than a clown on stilts……
