about me
I'm going a bit deaf...
There are never enough hours in the day...and certainly not enough sleep time at night...
I like to distress fabric with my heat tool and soldering iron before embossing, embroidering, beading and do whatever else comes to mind.....
I'd like to lie on a chaise lounge, eat Turkish Delight, and be generally pampered.....
I like to dance....so I've branched out into teaching belly dance (MED not Tribal at this stage) and also have a class for people with learning difficulties...
I like to make things. You should visit my Tribal Belly Dance costuming website at
www.blackwillowtribal.co.uk

I'll never be rich but I can be creative....

I think I have a wisdom tooth playing up. it's reeeeaaaaaallly painful. Last night baby boy bashed the side of my face with his head in an involuntary baby head-waggle moment and the pain was so bad I had to put him down to rest my head against the wall and cry. And he hit the side where there is no pain. It just travelled fast. Nothing I'm able to take at the moment did any good yesterday, but this morning was better, and I'm just beginning to reach the dreaded bedtime moment. You know...

...that's how long it took for Little Girl to be sleeping through the night. I found my book with "milestones" in it from when she was a baby. SEVEN MONTHS!!! Wow.....
Little Boy is an absolute joy and 12 weeks old tomorrow but I am beginning to feel the strain of being woken up in the night. At the moment he generally wakes me just once in the nighttime, anytime between 1 and 3am, and then wakes again at about 5am. Now, that's also Little Girls' chosen time of awakening, well, more l...

I've been wanting to share this with you for ages but Tribe was down every time I got a few minutes so now time has marched on a little.
So, baby due date was 21st September. On thursday 11th he was moving around loads - feet and knees everywhere and a hand or two clenching and unclenching way down in my pelvis. To say it was uncomfortable would be to understate it! Found myself thinking that I couldn't bear more than a week of that kind of movement. Then on Friday 12th I was overwhelme...

My goodness, baby was soooo wriggly last night. Late wake up time is about 11pm, so it's always pointless going to bed before then but last night I was tired after a day out with friends on Friday and a day at Longleat on saturday (all with a child who was coming down with a virus at the time). There's so little fluid I could feel every twist, turn and wriggle last night!
There were feet and knees poking out all over, and the hands were so active down in my pelvis (ouch!) that there was ...
