Welcome to my blog. I thought I’d start one a) to see what all the fuss is about (several years after the rest of the world, admittedly), and b) for fun.
I guess, and it is a guess, that the things I’ll be writing about are the things on my immediate radar, which are: my family (I’m a seemingly permanently sleep-deprived parent of two toddlers), my culture (having been recently reintroduced to kiwi culture, I’m finding it has changed a lot in the last ten years) and my own journeys, thoughts and improbable musings.
Currently, I’m in bed and have been for a whole afternoon. Doubtless that last sentence is probably right up there on the list of ‘things you don’t expect parents of toddlers to write’. It’s because I’ve been struck by a horrid sore throat that’s making me feel very tired and ill. That said though, it’s been bloody brilliant! I have not had an afternoon ‘off’ for nearly three years! I have read Vogue from cover to cover, eaten several chocolate biscuits, drunk several cups of tea, caught up on about a dozen outstanding emails to friends around the globe, and even started a blog. Who knew illness could be so productive and relaxing. Well, aparts from the odd wail I can hear coming from the lounge from F, B and, er, D.
