Ups & Downs

February 12, 2021February 12, 2021 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

I think I (we) have had more than our fair share of downs in life. Our family motto is...if it can go wrong, it will...to us lol. Over the years we've had some almost comical bad luck, stupid things that test your resolve and at times its had me thinking that someone up there has… Continue reading Ups & Downs

The Nagging Task

February 6, 2021 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

In The Happiness Project, (love that book!) Gretchen Rubin talks about tackling a nagging task and how it can boost your mood when you get it done. Blimey...I have so many of these that I don't even know where to start lol. But hey, you just gotta start somewhere with something, right? Late last year… Continue reading The Nagging Task

Being Enough

January 22, 2021 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

I was having a bit of a CBA day yesterday (can't be arsed). Which was funny as the #teamtomm podcast was on that exact topic. Yesterday was kitchen day (on the #teamtomm schedule), but as I'd already given it a once over on Wednesday morning (we had a house viewing) all that needed doing was… Continue reading Being Enough

Childhood Memories

January 5, 2021 Vikki Thompson4 Comments

My Nan would make Bread Pudding almost weekly. If there was a lot of stale bread that week, we'd get one. I thought it was something invented during the war (WWII), but it turns out its been around since the 11th Century and was called "Poor Mans Pudding" lol. Anyway, today, I made one. I've… Continue reading Childhood Memories

Counting Your Blessings

March 30, 2020 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

My brain is completely shot to pieces. I just don't seem to be able to focus on much right now. The only thing I seem capable of is listening to Podcasts, reading non fiction and drinking tea...lots of tea...oh, and eating rubbish lol...I can feel my anxiety levels rising on a daily basis! I know… Continue reading Counting Your Blessings

Being Organised

March 21, 2020 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

Yesterday I did a bit or organising...and enjoyed it way more than I should have done lol I'm not a very neat, tidy and organised type of person. But I can see the benefits of living that way. Knowing where everything is and being able to lay your hands on something immediately must be great.… Continue reading Being Organised

Memories

Yesterday was our eldest's 32nd Birthday (how did that happen? 🤣) so we offered to babysit the little ones while our son and his wife went out for a meal. Watching 3 of our 4 grand-children yesterday brought back lots of memories. Boy, I couldn't cope with 3 little ones now on my own thats… Continue reading Memories

Songs

March 12, 2020March 12, 2020 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

I've been a music lover since I was a child, probably helped by my Grandfather, who would often get up on a Sunday morning, rummage through his record collection and play Nat King Cole, Perry Como or Andy Williams at full blast lol. Recently, i've rediscovered songs from my childhood, songs that my Grandfather played.… Continue reading Songs

Fabulous Evening!

March 10, 2020 Vikki ThompsonLeave a comment

Last night was our monthly Mermaids Writing Group meeting. About 4 times a year we have a guest speaker, and last night we welcomed the lovely Peter Jones to our meeting, as an honorary Mermaid 😉 I've known Peter since 2011, when I first met him at Swanwick (the writers summer school) where I bought… Continue reading Fabulous Evening!

Tuesday Best

February 12, 2020 Vikki Thompson2 Comments

I was brought up to save the best stuff for special occasions. Like your best outfit, or the best china...I have my best jewellery and my best perfume. As a kid we even had a best room (only used for visitors and Christmas! lol). Why do we do that? Surely we should enjoy our "best"… Continue reading Tuesday Best
