Its good to be different...

This shows how different my girls are, this was a fancy dress event at school both dressed up as they felt was right.....Lady K on the left who thinks shes 16 and Lady C who thinks shes 4....

I love them to bits, its not easy being a parent, lots of challenges every day but I always try to remember their challenges.....Lady C spends all her time anxious, negative and worried, not many people 'get' her or tolerate her...its not easy she has her own kind of inner language, she is trying to show how she feels and it comes out all wrong.......

I never mention hubby, he is Mr List, the lists can be about shopping, holiday, work and after jobs in the house...the jobs in the house list are written usually every January April/May and when we come back off holiday at the end of Aug after 2 weeks of 'thinking' we usually have a good laugh at the old list because of the lack of jobs ticked off from one list to another......
He has worked so hard this weekend, nothing he did however was on the list but to be honest who cares!!
Well done hubs x

Another bonkers visit,there is def no need to wear make up because we cry laughing....I mean tears running down out faces....the best therapy, Laughter..
I love it when Kirsty and Ellie come over, they just slot into our family life like a snog fitting glove, on Sunday they brought along the scrummy Eddie. My big worry was that Harvey and Nix's fave thing is sausage and with Eddie being a sausage dog there cold have been trouble ahead..but no, he slotted in just fine.

Harvey is very very choosy about who he shares his house with, Eddie is def one of the lucky ones x

we polished off a nice roast chicken dinner followed by the 'voice' and 'Britains got talent' then made a plan...we often make a plan to craft but end up taking, dancing and laughing..so instead of crafting we did this instead.

Lady K had a friend over and Kirsty whipped out her camera and took some amazing shots...I will pop them on later....really gorge..

Kirsty has said I am long overdue with a freebie, maybe something new so I will work on something and be back soon, hanks for reading.

Insurance? and the point is.....

A few weeks ago my beloved camera was stolen, with the memory inside (which is the saddest part) I have been really lost with out it so decided to claim on my insurance. 

stage one

Phone the police....long long chat on the phone.

stage two

phone the insurance company.

who are we insured with hubby?

don't know.....so I called Zurich...not us!, called LV...not us! Called Direct line...not us!....

after being passed from pillar to post hubby came home and found the docs (which were from Direct line!..) I called to get a claim form for my £400 camera...

After all this it turns out the excess is £200, the camera has de-valued to £249 so they were going to give me £49 and raise my premium by 10%....!!!!!! WHAT?

Hubby decided to cheer me up to buy me one , for work, really not in the budget at the moment AT ALL but I do NEED it...  

Here it is , it arrived on Sat....AMAZING...cant use it yet of course but lovin it...
