I prefer the term childlike to childish, it had a more mature ring to it. To me I'm me. Determined, understanding with a little bit of a temper. I'm married and have children. I also have a brother and two sisters, I work in a school with various kids who need a little extra help, one way or another. And to all those people I imagine that I'm someone slightly different, depending on their needs. Once you read me I will become, to you, who you need me to be.

Rumour has it, although I haven't checked, that today's prompt has to do with the last thought I had before I fell asleep last night. Since Sunday is my lie-in day I go to bed silly-late on Sat...

About to go to the dentist to have a tooth re-filled. About today's entry, I do not have a bucket list because I feel it's just a way to add more pressure to life. I mean, heck, when we get to t...

Remember, remember the 5th of November, gun powder, treason and plot... What job would I never take. This question, I feel, should lead to the questioning of our standards, priorities and snobb...

My first thoughts when I wake up. Well that depends on the day. If it's a get-up-and-work-out day then my first thought it's to switch the alarm off before I wake the whole house hold. If it's a...

What makes my family unique is today's suggested nojomo. I love then more than anyone else's family. That's what. Now dammit, why does Up always do that - I have to cry twice before the story ...
