Day 338 – More sleep on Sundays….
Sunday 4th December 2011. It’s always a difficult decision, and one that can result in me snoozing for hours. Do I get up early on a Sunday and make the most of the day (and do the Sunday market -often, or bikram yoga- rarely!), or do I die under my duvet? Today was a ‘die … Continue reading
Day 320 – The start of the swim season
Wednesday 16th November 2011. Otherwise known in our household as ‘Do we really have to get up now?’ It’s hard on the kids, and dare I say it, even harder on the parents.

My head then throbs behind the eyeballs, nausia sets in, and is matched by a strong desire to switch everything off and hole up under the duvet. My brain plays image after image, and won’t sleep. Sensory overload … Continue reading
Day 77 – Friday night…..’Snore on the Sofa’ night
Funny isn’t it? When we were younger, friday night was the night out. End of the week, time to let your hair down, and sleep it off the next morning. Nowadays I hear thursday is the new friday (and presumably the sleeping it off continues, in the office the next day!). I also have quite … Continue reading
