4 of 52 weeks of happy.

Good morning

All rather quiet here - the boys are staying over with their Dad for the first time. Yep that's the bad stuff - MrVV & I have separated :( Still friends but not currently living together. Not 100% happy still but getting there and getting on with it.

Am lucky to have a huge family and pretty wonderful friends who are being great and making sure that I keep smiling and busy.

Anyhow onto this weeks happy blog post and photo;


1 - Snowdrops have been appearing in the garden - these ones were loving the sunshine yesterday.

2 - A bowl of sweets - a pressie from Little Son who went on a school day trip to France on Friday. Despite him being the most awful traveller and being rather ill on the drive over - he came home happy having had a great day out with his friends.

3 - Blue skies and white fluffly clouds - always lovely to see.

4 - Spring flowers, a scented melt and a bunch of red flowers - making my dresser cheerful for the weekend.

Time to get into the lycra and head to the gym!!

See you soon

Hi Vicki
I echo all that's been said before, take care and keep your chin up. Life is pants sometimes isn't it, but at least you get along which has to be better for the kids.
