Moving On Up

Morning all, Just to let you know that Sleep is for the Weak will be taking a short hiatus for a couple of days while I transfer everything over to a brand new hosted domain!! I know… it’s very exciting. I’ve given into blog envy – fed up of being jealous of all your gorgeous [...]

Logophilia

I have a confession to make to you. I am having a love affair. A passionate, toe tingling, heart-wrenching love affair. I have all the usual ‘being in love’ symptoms. That slightly ill feeling. Random transitory moods of weepiness alternated with extreme euphoria which I can’t quite verbalise. Obsessive thoughts and lying awake at night thinking about [...]

I’ll get my (waterproof) coat…

It’s been a long day. It’s been a tiring day. More than anything, it’s been a slightly disquieting day. Because now, sat here writing to you, I suddenly find myself a Baptised Christian. Yes friends you read that right. “But Josie!” I hear you cry! “Are you not famous for your public and extremely vocal rejection [...]

Kiss Kiss

I have been lucky enough to have been on the receiving end of some particularly spectacular kisses in my life. The first of any real significance must have been when I was about 8 and I fell head of heels in love with a boy a whole dizzifying year older than me. Him and his younger brothers [...]

You’ve met me and you’ve met Kai, and you haven’t run away yet. Let’s see after [...]

Welcome to new folks joining the sleep deprivation party here at SIFTW (acronyms mean I’ve totally made it!) This does of course now put me under immense pressure now to [...]

Crumbs on the keyboard and DON’T YOU TOUCH THAT!

Kai and I were supposed to be at ‘Krafty Kidz’ this morning (aliteration and creative spelling? You just know it was going to be all kinds of fun!) eating getting covered in paint and causing plenty of nice middle-class organised mayham. We are, however, not. An old friend decided to pop round for a visit instead. But not a [...]

Why I’m finding blogging a little like highschool

I wasn’t particularly popular at school (it’s ok ex-school mate readers, you can nod in agreement). I was also clever, but not THAT clever. Average clever. (More nods). But I wanted to be both. Desperately. I existed on the periphery of the more elitist social groups. Kind of cool by association but obviously not cool, especially [...]

Wordless Wednesday – Head Over Feet

Sometimes people ask me how I can manage to keep my patience with Kai through it all. This picture is how. Because no matter how bad the night’s been this is what I get to see when we all wake up*:   Did I mention I love this boy? *cot for decorative purposes only.
