What We Did In March

April 1, 2018

March: The Month of Snow To be honest, we didn't do a lot, because of the snow. There were school closures, late openings, college closures for Adam...I won't risk going out in the snow for fear of falling over and being pregnant I'm just really cautious of anything doing me a bit of harm. The month has been long although it feels like we've sped towards the two week Easter break. I always like this two week break between the Spring and Summer terms because its a nice bit of rest.

Baby Christenings: Why I Won’t Be A Part of Them

March 29, 2018

Do you have any Godchildren? I don't. I've never been asked, which is absolutely fine with me because to be honest it's just going to be an awkward conversation.

My New Sunglasses – Perfect Glasses Review

March 19, 2018

Loving My New Sunglasses I think I've been wearing glasses for the last ten years or so now. My eyes aren't too bad and I need mine for distance however I usually need to use them if I'm working on the computer for a long time or watching television. I usually make sure my I order prescription sunglasses too but as I don't drive I don't really have a need for prescription sunglasses so it's a bit unnecessarily. However, I do want to make sure my sunglasses are comfortable, stylish and ... Read more
