About Me

My photo
My name is Jo and I am a single parent. I have two young boys aged 4 and 3. I'm starting this blog in order to keep myself sane and to share my experiences as a single parent. My oldest son is called Charles but is very rarely called that, he is usually referred to as Charlie or Bobbins. He is very long sighted and needs to wear glasses all the time - when he has not broken them of course. My other son is called Leo, but is known as The Bean. He has a mild case of Spina Bifida and also has hydrocephalus, not that you would know that to look at him. My intention is to take a picture every day for a year and to write a little about it. The say that a picture is worth a thousand words and each picture will hopefully represent that day.

Damage Limitation













Easter is here again and like so many religious events it is associated with food. Easter eggs abound and for some reason seem to get cheaper every year. Then there is the hot cross buns spicy little treats that are delicious especially toasted and dripping with butter! It is a terrible time of year for those of us on a diet. My top tips are

  1. Buy one pack of Healthy Living or mini Hot Cross Buns. They are only supposed to be eaten on Good Friday anyway.
  2. Buy yourself a special treat instead of scoffing the kid's Easter Eggs. We have treated ourselves to a box of Lindor - far too good for the kids and so rich that you cannot eat too many at a time.
  3. It's a holiday so spend the time wisely, the weather is excellent this year why not go for a long walk and feed the ducks this is always a popular activity with my boys.
Have a great Easter and be good
