Back to Reality

After the excitement of the last few days, today is defintely back to normal.  Saturday morning was the usual standing on the sidelines of the football pitch - fortunately, unlike last week, the sun was shining.   My son's team won and it wasn't too stressful for me as the team largely kept the ball away from him. As he plays in goal that's always a good thing.  I've aged so much since he started playing in goal!  Last week, even though they won 4-2, he was really upset on the way home because he'd let two goals in, bless!

 

This afternoon has been uber exciting, defrosting two freezers and a fridge, supervising homework, and cleaning the bathroom!  Don't I know how to live life to the full?

 

Now though I'm off to have a long hot bath before watching Strictly, the highlight of my weekend!

 

Hope you're all having a much more exciting time.

 

Welcome Back!

It was lovely to see Marian Keyes on The Apprentice, You've Been Fired, last night. I've always been a fan of Marian's writing and loved her passion when she used to appear on Strictly's sidekick, It Takes Two. Being married into an Irish family, I also love her sense of humour and general Irish quirks.

Marian has overcome some difficult struggles in her life, more recently she has suffered from severe depression which she has fought valiantly. But seeing her again on You've Been Fired last night is a sure fire signal that she is coming through the other side.

To be honest, You've Been Fired is the only reason I watch The Apprentice in the first place. I love Dara and the panel makes a funny programme, often side splitting.

I'd love to see more of Marian on both this series and next season's It Takes Two.

Well done Marian, I hope your dark days are behind you
