Bringing on Some Blog Positivity and Saturday Memes

This week was a rather chaotic week for me as the kids were on a week long term break. My schedule was really messed up by having both boys at home with the girl and all three vying for my attention simultaneously. We went on play dates and outings during the week but too managed to do some catch up on some academic revision which I had scheduled for the boys. I can’t wait for school to start again next week so I can catch up on the tasks and pending deadlines which I have to meet this March.
Next week I’ll be taking part in Blog Positivity Week. I’ll be writing about how blogging has changed for me and evolved through the years since I started back in 2007. There will be a lot of stuff lined up next week with another giveaway starting tomorrow.
1. Have you ever felt that you needed to just forget an ex-lover?
Never. I’m too in love with my current lover to ever need to think about an ex-lover.
2. Spring picnics and cookouts are here! What would you want to have on your plate as you head back to the table?
I would like to bring the kids on a picnic one of these weekends. We could do a Teddy Bear’s picnic just for the fun of it. Sound’s great doesn’t it 😛
3. It’s St. Patrick’s Day, March 17th! Do you celebrate? Drink Green Beer? Go out?
No celebration here. As it’s the weekend we bring the kids out as usual. Today we went bicycle riding in the park but it rained halfway and had to leave early.
4. Did you remember to wear green today?
No. My son Doggie boy will happily wear Green any day as it is his favourite colour. His favourite pieces of clothes are his green Angry bird T-shirt and Jacket( See picture above)
5. What phrase or saying do you over use?
“Shh..be quiet the baby is sleeping”.. and the older brothers will be still oblivious and making a din until I go up to them and stare at them directly in their faces.
6. If you could (or could have) change(d) something about your relationship with your parents, what would it be?
Not sure about this..maybe I could have been more open with then regarding certain issues but at present I remain status quo.
7. If the NCAA Men’s or Women’s Final Four basketball tournament was played in your hometown arena or within easy driving distance from where you live, would you try to attend one of the games?
No. I’m not into watching basketball so I’ll give it a miss.
8. No matter what’s going on in your life, what always makes you smile?
Seeing the kids and R every morning. 🙂
9. We’ve asked this before: What else is on your mind? Go ahead and rant
I want to be able to make passive income or have a steady stream of income while being home with the kids. However it seems like so hard to get something really suitable with will not compromise my time too much and doesn’t pay peanuts for my efforts.

Sorry your bike ride got rained out =(

Oh, I feel exactly the same way about your last question. I’m hoping by being diligent and keeping my eyes open something will come up. Also, I’m heading into Spring Break week here and look forward to have the kids at home. We have some fun stuff planned. 🙂

I can totally relate to #9. I’ve got a contract job at the moment that I can do from home in my own time and it pays ok…. but it’s so boring! Can I get paid for something I love to do, please? (That still lets me stay home with my kids)

Definitely my oversaid phrase is “Quiet voice” which is generally to my son or my husband 🙂 who are both loud.
