My first blog attempt.

Good morning. Well, actually I'm not entirely sure it is. I've been awake since 4.15am with Daisy, my youngest, who is 2 and a half and has got a rotten cold and a hacking cough. It was the cough that woke us up.
My hubby, a painter and decorator, has just left for work and my other two children are still, luckily, fast asleep.
It's the school half term break and today we haven't got much planned, the kids wanted to go to a theme park but I'm not sure I've got the energy, or cash, for a day of screaming children yelling, 'I want this', 'can we buy that?'. Oh well, they went to the beach for the day on Monday, they can't have everything and neither can I. Otherwise I'd be a size 16 with long, flowing, thick hair.
