It's been another manic experience in day job land today. I only travel to the office about two or three times a week and can then work at home the rest of the time (which isn't 24/7 but usually feels like it). Consequently, when I'm in the office, I'm usually in meetings and discussing things with... Sign in to see full entry.

Manic days
For those of you who read my BookMark or Building Brands blogs, you'll know that things have become really hectic. The day job is consuming a lot of my time but I'm trying to maintain my blog posts in the digital flow! I got to a point today where I really thought I couldn't go on with the day job....

Thank you for the music
is one of my favourite Abba songs, probably surpassed only by 'The winner takes it all.' I mention this for two reasons really. The first is that I had a great birthday on Sunday and many thanks to everyone who commented on my last post and sent their best wishes. Susan and the children presented me...

It's my birthday on Sunday and we're heading off to Manchester as Claire is dancing in an all-England competition there on Sunday afternoon. We're staying with my sister and husband in...

Roma and reality
I'll post later or tomorrow about our experiences in Rome. Suffice to say that the travel all went without any hitches and we arrived home at about 1.00 this morning, only to get up again at 6.15. Feeling remarkably awake - I think there remains some strong Italian cafe in my system - but in the... Sign in to see full entry.

All present for the presentation
I 've spent quite a lot of the last few days in creating a website presentation for the senior team at work. This involved both updating them and challenging them to embrace the path we think we should be taking. 44 slides later the team bought in to everything we've been recommending and have a...

Domestic bliss
I got up early to make tea for Susan and I and then we had our Sunday morning bath. These are the moments to talk and share our experiences before little people are up and about and not wanting to miss out! Christian played football this week and made up for missing out last week by setting up a... Sign in to see full entry.

Boys day today
I was still feeling a little sad this morning about the empty room next door to ours. Thanks for all your kind comments about the 'lost' train set. I decided that this morning was going to be about Christian and I. Susan and Claire left on the 7.18 train to go and meet Ivan in London on his way home... Sign in to see full entry.

I've been here all along
That's the problem! I've been in endless meetings throughout this week and, unbelievably, it's the weekend once again. I'm sorry to have been absent while I've been here but I just don't seem to have got to Blogit recently. However, when this happened before I just went into a black hole - sad that...

Happy families
Claire and I got home last night to be met on the doorstep by Ivan who desperately wanted to listen to 'Fall out Boy' with me. It was as though he'd waited all day for the opportunity. I told him he could have done so on his own but he warmed my cold body by telling me 'it's just not the same... Sign in to see full entry.
