If I miss one of your posts tomorrow, I’m really sorry…

I am on a course tomorrow, outta the house before 7.30, to drop the kids to breakfast club, then I won’t finish until 4… Goodness knows when I’ll be back with the traffic! Kids in after school club too…

So I won’t be able to quietly peruse my reader with a cup of tea, as I usually do. Instead I’ll be speed reading this time tomorrow!!

In case I can’t wish it tomorrow, have a great Friday all!!

PC, Tablet or Phone?

I use all three of the above to update my blog, and to post on.

Usually it’s my phone, as I have it with me all the time, and my photos are usually taken on it too.

Or my iPad.

I use the Android WordPress app on the phone, and the Apple one on the iPad.

Occasionally I get on the PC, when Hubby Dearest isn’t working.

I have to say I love the convenience of my phone or the iPad. It’s a lot easier to lay in bed, as I’m doing now, posting away via one of my mobile devices, and the apps and their updates mean we can pretty much do everything on them.

However, nothing compares to my PC experience! The ease with which I can access all the features, and improve my blog, is incomparable! But, my only bugbear… The embedded link button won’t work, and I have to physically type the html code in to do it!! Good thing I learned from a fellow blogger a couple of months ago hey!!

I just spent the best part of 2 hours on my PC, and time flies! Then I realised I had to get the kids to bed!!!

How do you access WordPress? What do you feel is the best experience?

She never ceases to crease me up, my Lil Princess!!
So tonight we were trying to ring her uncle and aunt, but no answer. I rang my brother-in-law’s (BIL) mobile and handed it to her.

Me: Talk to him when he answers please.

Lil Princess sat holding the phone and it rang and rang, no answer, until the answering machine kicked in.

BIL’s phone: “Hi, you’re through to *** at Pitney Bowes…”
LP: Muuuum! He says he’s picking his nose!

I cut off the phone and was literally rolling about on the floor!!!!

Yet another children and what they hear classic!!!

As usual our school celebrated World Book Day and the children as a whole embraced the whole dressing up totally!

And the staff decided it would be a great idea to theme the costumes as much as possible.. so we had a huge amount of Oompah Loompahs, Willy Wonka, and me… a giant Wonka Bar!

Wonka Bar!

Rear View!

It wasn’t the easiest costume to wear all day, I couldn’t sit down as it was made of hard cardboard!!! So it was on and off, as need be, but as Chris, The Story Reading Ape really wanted to see my costume, I had to post the pics!
