Standing at the bathroom basin, innocently cleaning my teeth and peering at my complexion (without squinting to avoid wrinkles....) I noticed a truly horrifying change in my appearance. Yes, that is right folks, grey hair had appeared on my head. Not one, not two but a patch! A PATCH
I say! It was enough to make me choke on my toothpaste.
I charged off into the bedroom, arms flapping about (and possibly foaming at the mouth due to aforementioned toothpaste) and accused my husband of terribly neglecting his wife's delicate mental state. He had no idea what I was on about. I pointed to my head and shrieked about grey hairs, my husband peered at me (with squinting!) and announced he could not see a single grey hair AT ALL! Oh the horror of a neglectful and colour blind husband!
I reached for the phone to call my hairdresser for an emergency appointment to colour my hair. My baby kicked me, and I remembered that I refuse to colour my hair while pregnant to protect my baby from the chemicals (and also that I no longer have a hairdresser on speed dial). The indignity of the whole situation! So I hit google instead, looking for glamour amongst the grey....
Three daughters, one ex dance teacher mum and a tolerant husband. I used to have highlights in my hair, now I pretend there are highlights to housework.

Our music was better!
Yesterday I had the radio on to a top 40's station, after being bombarded with the likes of Ke$ha and Katy Perry and god knows what other crap I had a rant at my husband! Something along the lines of how these songs had such shallow and ridiculous lyrics and that it was no wonder kids had such poor literacy and blah blah blah! And then I made the mistake of saying that music when we were kids was no where near as silly and ridiculous. My husband laughed and started reminding me of some very funny songs! I feel old now
How about this one???
Or this
or this perhaps???
Enough said I think!

Mother nature
Mother nature is not a women or at least not a very nice one. If she were, chocolate would have 0 calories, post baby bodies would be better than pre baby bodies, breast feeding would cure stretch marks and wrinkles and pimples would not be able to coexist on the one person!
