Hectic House

Our house has turned into one hectic place, all i can say i am so pleased the xmas shopping is all done.
Mum and Dad arrived from Portugal on Saturday afternoon to stay with us for 2 weeks. My dad has been very ill just recently and it was thought best he have a bit of T.L.C from the boat, so with that they arrived with us. Now i only have a average 3bed house, so with 4adults two older kids that will not share a room and the 2 dogs i leave it to your imagination of what i am going through as well as my dad having special meals. On top of all this iam still working and doing everything i do.
Spare me a hug if you can as i need it, or i think a drink may just come in handy.......

We did it again

I thought after the telling off I gave Bruno the other day it may just have sunk in not to touch peoples trainers. yesterday was a good day and all were still in there place reined between me and Bruno.
Today peace does not reign, he has had a pair of Andy's trainers , yes not one but both happily shredded to say the telling off I can't put on the blog for various animal cruelty issues. He is still alive and I am now up the attic trying to find some old material to make a cover for the shoe rack. Hopefully what he can't see he will not go for. I have no space to move the rack to another place , so he either stops or the cage comes out of the shed.

trade in

I could really trade Bruno in at the moment, He had only been left for about half an hour and he decided to go through the shoe rack, he lifted a pair of Andy's shoes out of the way, one of his trainers, yes you guessed it he wanted a certain trainer belonging to Stephanie. He then proudly shredded it as he had done a week before to her best pair of sketchers.
Now i love my dog to bits but at over £30 a pair i am not amused, he had the harsh telling off, but yet we have another pair to go in the bin. So i have now to buy Steph another pair of trainers and she will have to keep them in her room.
The weired thing is he does not do this all the time , he must just get a thought and he only goes for hers. So the little S**T got another telling off and god help him if he goes for another pair......

no time

there just isn't enough time to blog at the moment, besides jobs x2 the kids the dogs, andy. i need to create time that just isn't there . I have steph's photos to do, dog beds to make, still do the dog training, be a mum, be a housewife and all the other stuff we mums have to do, well thats it time to do the teaand the kids want the computer again.......

Happy Birthday Stephanie

Gone has the small bundle i held 12yrs ago, and now is a mature girl full of life, she has such a will of her own that sometimes i find it hard to cope with. She definately takes after her dad, she knows what she wants and how to get round you to get it.
Having just started senior school life has turned another corner, me feeling another year older and being slightly left behind , steph wanting to explore more of life, and being more independant, me not wanting her to grow up as fast as she is but having to let her fly just that little bit more.
I cannot ask for more in more ways than one, her jest for finding things new and trying them for herself, of her ability to be liked by everyone who meets her, her attitude to people and school , having a grade A student with a love of knowledge, Her wanting to please and at the same time you just want her to do as she is told. She is not allways the angel she thinks she is but in my eyes comes a very close call.......

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MY BEAUTIFULL STEPHIE XXXXXXXXXXXX
