Well, I hit the 30,000 today.
30,000 views of my blog thankyou very much and not all of them were me flicking back and forth editing. So thankyou to all of you who have been so loyal, particularly during my recent hiatus while I tended to the work blog.I finished my official job on Friday, and while I will continue to volunteer to update the Work Blog, Facebook and Twitter; I will be spending a lot more time over here in Hammieland which includes visiting all your beautiful blogs.
I'm sorry for not visiting and commenting. I must admit I have found it really tough to get the work/life balance thing right. I mean, it's really hard for me to do anything lightly - the other morning I noticed that my hair tongs actually have a choice of settings, and I was confounded by the concept of doing anything to the "minimum".
So I am taking this next month to enjoy summer, while the kids are still in school, and charge my batteries for August which is always the tenth level of hell.
After the school run I plan to swim every morning, read blogs over a late breaky and then get to work on my new secret mission; more about that later.
And so to LAST weekend when I lost 2 1/2 hours of my life taking Boo to "Transformers Dos"
(as he called it)
Trucks that turn into robots that have to save us from Bad space robots and an Airplane that sounds a lot like Lenny Henry which used to be a Bad space robot but now wants to help the Good Robots and earth and John Turturro in a g-string (really)
But Boo really like it and the credits were good.To offset the Bucket of Pepsi effect we went for a quick walk in the Glen of the Downs.
Not the dog shite side but the path up behind The Glenview HotelIt's got water, bridges, stepping stones, mud and puddles. What's not to like?
Oh and the end of the trail comes up into the landscaped gardens of the Glenview.Where someone left a chair next to the Stag
What's a boy gonna do?
Have a lovely Week! xx

Your secret mission sounds interesting!
Must try out that walk behind the Glenview and promise to pick up our dog poo as we go along!!
Boo seems to get taller with every photo!
Can't wait to hear about the secret mission!!
I look forward to hearing more from Hammieland.
I too intend to do some forest walks this summer as I know Snuggles will love it.
Oh...yeah I guess I'll have to do Transformers too! Though I could do what I did in Wal E....catch up on my texts!! xx Jazzy
Happy 30,000 hits!
