About Me

Hi, I'm Jo.When I started this, I really didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I do. My OH (who is basically a techno-nerd) said it is fun and I should embrace nerdom more! Well, I have and could even be addicted to Myspace!!I live with Paul (the techno nerd) and our 4 year old daughter. I'm lucky enough to be a at home mum at the moment but that is all set to change when our daughter starts school. So, when I'm not running a house and all the other stuff that goes with being a parent, I make handbags and purses which (hopefully) I can turn into a business at some point.

What a weekend!

So, I started the weekend kind of excited but also kind of dreading my driving test which was this morning. I knew I couldn't know my stuff anymore than I did and that chances are I would fail as it ...

Nothing can ruin my mood today!

If I didn't know better, I'd think my OH was up to something!

So, my OH decides to whisk me out Sat night for dinner as a surprise. How lucky am I?  He books the restaurant and even organises a baby sitter without the slightest prompt from me (although I do...
