A mother's life

A day in the life of a mum is often a blur of rushed activity, trying to ensure that everything is done that keeps the family ticking over - are they fed, watered, cleaned, taxied, homeworked, etc to say nothing of the other basic household chores that often take over your life. I have decided that everyone needs the opportunity to tap into their creative or indulgent side and make, bake, read, watch or pursue something that you feel makes you individual. If I can do it..... so can you.

The benefits of those jewellery tools

I knew they would come in handy on more than one occassion - son of 15 years has just come downstairs with his automatic light timer for our resident gecko - Joey.  For lvoe nor money the pin to set the timer could not be removed by hand.  However, clever mum (ME!!) thought of those nifty jewellery pliers and equipped with spectacles to aid vision and an array of tools before you could blink I had removed the pin from the automatic timer.  'Oh, that was a good idea' son of 15 years announces.  'I knew you could do it mum'  Ahhh, you've got to love them.
