Blimey! She's back!

So, it's been a while since my last post, not the best blogger in the world! lol

A lot has changed since i last posted, we've finally bought a house and settled down after 20 years of Army life and endless moving. It feels really weird to not have the safety net of being able to abort mission every 2 years. It was something of a comfort to know that if a posting wasn't going too well, was boring, crappy area, whatever the reason, we could escape to the next place and get on with life. Now the anchor has been dropped and we're building a life in our newly chosen hometown, helped along by some amazing friends, a gorgeous new house and the knowledge that we'll never again pay for shoddy military housing with excessively high heating bills due to poor maintenance on the building! Maaaaaaarvellous! 

So, with the newly planted seeds of home starting to take root, I decided to firstly get a job, more on that in a moment, to also continue with Bandana Heaven and to attempt to blog again! Let's see how long my efforts last this time! lol

The job
I've searched for nearly 3 years for a job that i could work around the 2 kids and not have to leave the dogs alone too long. Well, I finally found it! I call people to book appointments for them etc. Not the most exciting of jobs, but I get to chat to some lovely people, encounter some hilarious names and best of all, work from home! Perfect!

The Dogs
We've still got Stanley, my perfect little confused Staffie and he now has a little sister called Iris, she's a Staffie cross. We thought she would be company for him as he always seemed desperate for a friend. Sadly it hasn't quite worked out that way! Don't get me wrong, she's a beautiful little lady, we love her to bits, she's feisty, funny and a total babe, but she's so bossy to Stanley! She nicks his bed, stops him from jumping on my lap for hugs and is really rather rotten to him! Poor Stan, we still have our cuddles, we just have to be a little secretive now! lol

So, that's all for now, I'll bore you some more very shortly! I have plans for some life hacks, cleaning tips and hoping for some vintage events to talk about very soon too!
