Blethering Boys: March 2015

http://www.bletheringboys.com/2015_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, 8 March 2015. Happy International Women's Day! Today and every day! Today is International Woman's Day. Stuff like this matters to me. I am a feminist - no doubt about it. I believe as a woman, you really have no choice; after all, feminism is basically just saying you want a slice of what everyone else has in the world and that you deserve it too. And you know what? From babies festooned in sugar-pink clothes, to pink 'girl' Lego, books 'J ust for girls'. We can look at it on a high scale and ch...

Blethering Boys: Pregnant Drinks

http://www.bletheringboys.com/2015/01/pregnant-drinks.html

Saturday, 24 January 2015. So, I'm now 18 weeks pregnant. I've finally reached that glorious middle ground where I no longer have crazy hunger/simultaneous food aversions and somehow (most days) I feel replenished with the energy which has evaded me these last few months. Thus I am able to once again work as hard as I ever have and, when the chance occurs, sit down and relax, enjoying my evening with my favourite snacks and drinks. Except, I can of course no longer settle in front of House. Sure, over Ch...

Pondering, parenting, poetry and prose. What I’m Writing Linky. I’ve always enjoyed pumpkin carving – I used to do it as a child and loved that moment when the candles were lit, the lights went out and your artwork came to life! My sons now love making them too. The first year we tried them we cut the classic grinning faces but then a couple of years ago I bought a pumpkin carving kit from the supermarket (it came with special little tools and a booklet of designs) and we’ve never looked back. As a lover...

Pondering, parenting, poetry and prose. What I’m Writing Linky. Tag Archives: kids drawings. When Twitter is awesome. I’ve mentioned #ShapeChallenge in a few recent posts. Shape designed by my 6yo. Shape designed by my 8yo. The boys did tweet some responses that made me giggle a bit, like ‘you have pro skills! 8217; from my eight-year-old to a professional illustrator, or ‘keep up the good work! 8221; He says he feels really proud of himself and that he thought he wasn’t any good at art but now he ...

Pondering, parenting, poetry and prose. What I’m Writing Linky. Why labels are important. Some of my sketches for a song illustration. Do you ever find it difficult to call yourself a writer, or an artist or whatever the appropriate label for your creative niche is? I know I do, and conversations with fellow creative types has told me I’m not alone. But recently I’ve faced a new self-labelling question. I’ve been studying illustration since the start of this year I’ve submitted assi...No Surely not. ...

the remorseless horse - limerick challenge #28 - writing bubble

http://writingbubble.co.uk/the-remorseless-horse-limerick-challenge-28

Pondering, parenting, poetry and prose. What I’m Writing Linky. The remorseless horse – limerick challenge #28. I’m keeping all my best limericks for my book, especially the ones I think kids will like, so this isn’t one of my, or my sons, favourite ones. I think it has too much of an adult theme. Still, they both illustrated it for me as you can see below and their pictures are much happier than my words I think! A lazy, unpleasant old horse. To his wife showed no thought or remorse. More from my site.

Pondering, parenting, poetry and prose. What I’m Writing Linky. Waaaaay back in 2010/11 I had another blog. It was part of a babywares business. I ran with my husband and when the business closed the blog went with it. We kept the blog posts on a computer somewhere though because we had mostly written about our kids and wanted to keep those memories. My oldest two back in 2011. I think they’re looking at insects (not much has changed, then… ). Who had he seen, you might wonder? Oh no No one like that.
