So tired!

And the reason for my tiredness would be the eldest son, who was out on the tiles last night. I mean I know that he is 23 now but once a mother always a mother and I can't sleep properly until I know he is  safely tucked up in bed.
I woke several times and he wasn't home , by 4am , I had him pictured in gutters, mugged, kidnapped , eaten by a bear, you know the whole cadboggle.....and then ....oh yes I remembered that when I purchased my lovely iPad Air on which I am tapping away now, there was an app, a find my friends app. It is a find my son app on my iPad as I have no friends that wish to be found. 
Eagerly I reached for the iPad which is never more than a few inches away from me, and entered the app. I eagerly waited as it flashed locating........... And then horror of horrors it came back location not found!!!!!!! WHAT?????? I couldn't shout at the app as hubby was sleeping next to me ( how does he sleep when I am writhing with anguish)  I pushed the icon of myself to see where I was, luckily I was where I should have been... Panicking at home..... And then it started locating him..........and there he was still in town!!!! I have to say that I was relieved and amazed at how clever these apps and devices are....Well I watched his little icon bobbling around and judging by the routes he was taking he was getting nowhere fast. Having then perused Facebook for a bit I clicked on the way ward son app and he had transported as if by magic ( later discovered to be a taxi ) to the end of the road. I leapt from my bed and sure enough there he was moving in diagonals. I couldn't resist opening the bedroom window and yelling softly "Where have you been you dirty little stop out" to which he looked up gave me a huge grin and went ssssshhhhhhh. Cheeky bugger at 4.30am . Anyway he proceeded to babble about his night , I've little idea what language he was delivering and then he slopped off to slumber land and I wide awake, popped the kettle on and thanked my blessings and iPad that he was alive and well.
It's now 9.30am and I'm shattered lol, the joys of being a mother.... Only 2 more to go......

Well i have been clickety clicking away ... i have felt a bit under the weather this week so after doing all the chores i have been ensconced on the settee wrapped up in my nice throw watching the box set of friends that my eldest son bought us all last December as an early Christmas pressie. Inspired by Mrs Bond of woolly words i have been busy knitting and then re knitting as things regularly went wrong...odd sized legs, knee joints in thighs..head knitted in wrong color wool...(typo pattern error that one) , but finally.. not perfect by any means of the imagination, i have knitted my first ever project...so with great Tralaaaa's i introduce Geraldine... She was knitted in Dk wool that i picked up nice and cheap from the Range, and the pattern is a King cole Halloween one, there are also patterns on the sheet for pumpkins, cat and spiders.... i may knit a cat to keep her company as now my project is finished my hands are twitching for something to do. I must admit despite the

sad times and baking

Haven't been on here for a bit, we have had some very sad news concerning my father in law who has been battling cancer for the last 5 years.... unfortunately he has taken a turn for the worse and is currently being cared for by our local hospice, and now sadly it is just a matter of time. We have been reading all the reports of Britain in the big freeze and that the entire country is frozen or covered in snow.... well that would be all of Great Britain then..apart from Weston super mare... where i have not seen one little flurry of whiteness!! Not that I'm complaining because it does cause traffic problems and minor injuries, but a pretty sprinkle would have been nice. I've been  baking in the  week, I've made several loaves of bread..plus .some bread rolls that could have been used for throwing at coconuts..i didn't give them to the birds they would have probably choked. i did make some chocolate nut brownies which were a success, and i made some lemon meringu

Where is April going??????????????

Its already the 15th of April and the month is half gone, who has the last 14 days??? So i'm trying to rack my little brain cells and think what has passed since i last blogged. well the wedding and the pictures are still at the forefront, such a lovely day that you cant just forget about it in a hurry. i have found an album in my stash of crafting goodies that will be a perfect little keepsake so i shall start working on that soon, I've managed to get some really nice pictures so with a little bit of cropping and editing i think i will have a lovely album to give as a special gift to my brother and sister in law. The boys have been home from school but i have been at work on and off so once again i have done boo diddly squat with my little men. They have contented themselves mostly with bouncing on the trampoline that hubby rebuilt... the springs are a bit rusty where they had been hiding in a black bin liner, but it is working well, i just need to get a cover to go over
