bubbles and chickens make it better

I get to live my dream job….almost

With Joe still working plenty of insane hours at work, and me still learning to juggle work, the kids etc – many a night has been spent with me slurping a bowl of something in front of the computer.   I find the computer so much more interactive than television, it suits my rapidly shortening ...
