Back from our trip...

We got back on Friday and on Saturday morning, I had to do a wedding for my beauty business. Jet lag is still affecting me, but I'm feeling better than I did yesterday, so I guess I can't complain.
Coming back is always difficult. Our trips to the US are far from relaxing. We spend the entire trip driving from house to house visiting friends and family all over NJ and NY. We

Im so happy for you. Atleast you can say you did it, you lived away from everyone. I could never imagine having a baby away from home with no help. So now, our kids can be friends!

Top 20 Lists

Recently, a magazine here in the UK issued their list of their Top 100 women in show business. This sparked conversation between Wayne and I and one rainy weekend when we had nothing to do, we compiled our own Top 20 lists. The rules were we had to judge on looks alone (not their physique) and only one token model was allowed. For fun, I thought I'd add our lists here for you to view and enjoy. Maybe it will even spark conversation between you and a friend or loved one. Wayne and I actually had a really good time creating our lists together - judging each other's taste in the opposite sex and laughing over how long it took for us to prioritize our selections. We still change the order every time we look at it! (although our top five have remained the same) Enjoy and feel free to comment!

Fight Club for Five Year Olds - Part 2

The other mother and I went into the school to meet with the teacher and the assistant head. We both let them know how upset we were that we were not informed that our children were sent to the office and how much we were against the children being allowed to play fighting games on the playground. I told them I wouldn't allow it at home and I'm really unhappy that it's being allowed at school. They admitted it was a problem and explained that they are planning to introduce a a scheme to teach the children to play in a safe way. They will be calling it 'Super Hero Training'. They plan to give out capes & masks out to children who behave well as rewards at playtime. They will have assemblies where they will teach the children to play fighting games without making contact. I find this to be absurd. The problem has gone on to long and I doubt they will be able to teach little children to change their games when they have sixty other children to look after on

Feeling the rain

After I worked out today, I went into the kitchen for a bottle of water and saw the pouring rain out my patio door. There are few times I can think of wanting to feel the rain more. Without a thought, I went out and stood in the rain. English rain is cold, but today it felt incredible. I live in a very public place, but in that kind of weather there was wasn't a soul in sight. I thought about twirling, but the grown up in me squashed the notion. What I did do though was close my eyes and raise my chin toward the sky to let the rain fall on my face. In my mind I slowed it all down and took it in. I swear in those few moments I felt every drop. I've always loved the rain. I love the sound of it and like to open the windows and listen to it while drifting off to sleep on stormy nights. Even as a child I would love to go out and play in. When I got older, I found it sensual and and dreamed of romantic moments that would play out under dark clouds, surrounded by grey
