Bliss and Mayhem

 Sleep. I love you..i truly do. Sleep and I had a fight about 10 years ago, we finally broke up and have only sorted out our differences recently. So far, so good. Our relationship is slowly getting better. When my trusty mobile starts singing relaxation melodies to me at 6.30am, i do curse at it, rolling over wishing for there to be just another 10 more minutes before another day has to begin. Within 15 minutes i have 2 coffees made for hubby and i , breakfast ready for Ethan, lunch made and packed for school and have snuck in a quick ciggie. Our gorgeous little bundle Jack announces to the world that he is awake, "mummy! mummy!", bottle popped in mouth , Ethan's rooms gets flooded with noise and lights of me storming around saying "get up!, it's nearly 7am! "  On top of this, i have a load of washing already going, half trying to dress myself while tackling a 2 year old that refuses to get out of his pyjamas, the dog wanting to be let outside and a husba

  I cannot believe that "writers block" has already hit me! Have been doing countless hours of research on the internet trying to "perfect" the idea of my first post. What to write about, the tone bla bla bla... and now sitting here infront of my gorgeous new MacBook Pro! ( yes very excited i am on my new buddy addition!) I have decided to wipe everything that i have read under the carpet and take a deep breath and just do it.  So what does a 30 something full time working mum have to write about? And will anyone really give a crap about what she has to say? Well i did think about this in depth before i started setting up this blog and looking back at it now i have to say that i'll hang on tight and go with this journey and see where it leads me.  Life contstantly throws us curveballs with a touch of  "wow!" as to the reason why i named my blog "a bit of bliss and mayhem", because everyday there is something crazy and hectic going on in the
