Now that wasn't so hard was it...

I'm still here :D  And I've even gained a few followers overnight which is great news!

I'd love to post a better introduction to myself, my family, the purpose of my blog, and the sort of categories, topics, opinions that you can expect in coming months. But, in reality that's not me. For the moment I'm going with the flow. And today  is all about family.

 Its my son's birthday, my parents arrived this week, and my husband heads off on a business trip on Monday. So its all go here today. Did I mention that we might be expecting 10 people to turn up any time now for a BBQ. I say "might" coz I'm not sure if there will be 2 or 10...   but we have enough food to feed an army, and the fridge is full of beer & wine so What the Heck!  Crazy house time.

And I love it. Days like this are what what being a mum is all about for me. Three generations playing on the Wii together, my first ever attempt at a pavlova sitting dolefully on the kitchen top while my mum finds the nicest way to word her suggestion that we try to do something creative with it, and most of all, the bubble of love, reinforced by laughter, which is keeping out the realities of everyday stuff. These days don't happen too often, but I for one appreciate them when they come around.  Everything else can wait....   until tomorrow
