A little bit later than usual to
Karin's fab
Flashback Friday this week - I'm normally organised and prep in advance. Yes, I know I'm sad and I'm writing this on a Friday night but my husband is working late - cue violins and sad face - so I'm blogging. I officially have no life - cue another sad face.
This will be my second
post about my Mum this week but as it was Mother's Day AND her birthday - both on the same day (how cute!) I thought she deserved it. Maybe one day I'll tell her about my blog....or given some of the
rude stories I've divulged previously, maybe not!
Now I'm a mother I sometimes struggle to remember my life before my daughter so I imagine how hard it must be for my Mum. She's 66 now and has two daughters ages 36 (me) and 39. It must be so strange to look back on her younger days when she was footloose and fancy free.
So I dedicate this weeks post to my Mum before she had me!

If you're interested in seeing what my Mum looks like now and you didn't see my entry to
The Gallery this week you can have a
little look here.
Now I'm heading off to link up with Flashback Friday over at
Cafebebe and rummage through everyone else's archives on this lovely sunny Friday night.
