Great Fun etc: Twists & Turns on the Rollercoaster
http://www.greatfun4kidsblog.com/2016/09/twists-turns-on-rollercoaster.html
Twists and Turns on the Rollercoaster. Ahhh Life. We never know what it'll throw at us. I read a guest post on Ann Voscamp's blog the other day which really resonated with me, called " When you're living a life you didn't choose. That happens sometimes - we end up in a life that wasn't what we hoped/dreamed/planned. We have a dream for the life we want to live, and then it isn't. Life throws us a curveball. There's an unexpected twist in the rollercoaster. And oh help. But, yep, there it is. To ignore my...

How to Construct a GingerBread House (& have fun doing it). Right now you might be finding yourself in the thick of Christmas madness and this may at first appear to be another story to add to the pressure of all the things you could be/should be doing to make the season magical.

Great Fun etc: Rollercoaster
http://www.greatfun4kidsblog.com/p/depression-me.html
For nearly fifteen years I've been on a rollercoaster journey through Depression and Anxiety. I call Depression "The Black Dog". Sometimes the dog is chained up safely and I can walk along freely. Other times that darned mutt escapes and tries to chase me down, nipping at my heels and forcing me to run for cover. Living in Depression's shadow is a reality for one in every five people. No quick fixes, no miracle-cures, but hope. These are my thoughts and feelings, things that help me, things that give.

Mrs Readalot is my bookaholic alter-ego. She loves nothing better than to curl up with a good book and a cup of tea on a rainy night. It's one of her great pleasures in life (and a sure sign of aging).
