Our living room looks as it should now, the tree and decorations are down and ready for me to forget momentarily where they are next Christmas! It’s funny how they come down much speedier than they go up! T and D both go back to school on Thursday and I’ve started the chats around going […]
It’s been a day of attempting to get organised with regard to an upcoming event, one that is causing me some concern. It’s not D’s Annual Review, although that is this week but: School Trip. A residential week-long school trip for T, happening at the end of January and as part of his PE GCSE […]
I’m writing this post today about a #SSAmazingAchievement that has slowly but surely crept up on D and I. It concerns this: We’ve used a SN buggy for years now, it’s acted as D’s safety net. She’ll walk beside me and then her sensory issues will take over, it could be someone walking behind us […]

We’re aiming for a snuggly, sensory-loving Christmas and, after a long year, it will be welcomed. Thanks to Helen for the opportunity as ever x. Preparing for Christmas – the […]
It seems a little bit mean to write this funee today, whilst poor old Mr Bluecrisps is suffering at home with "man flu" but …here goes. Whenever it’s hair clippers time at home, I dread it. It’s not the fact that T wriggles and squirms, I can cope with that. It’s the fact that DECADES […]
When we moved into our house 10 years ago, the back garden was very sedate, very appropriate for the previous owners. It was half-paved (not ideal for toddlers) and had a low feature wall with a herb garden. We very quickly set about laying turf, replacing the fence that wouldn’t withstand anymore wind and the […]
