The Blog is Back

New name, new format (what happened to the old Blogspot formats????), my blog and I are back. In a much regretted moment of pregnant stupidity, I deleted my previous blog and then failed to resurrect it before the 90 day expiration period. What can I say? Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb!!!!! Having not saved or backed any of it up in any other format, some of my best (and most personal) writing is now lost but maybe that is not such a bad thing as some of those posts are better left unread.

Onwards and upwards as, two years later, the cast of characters pretty much remains the same with one very important exception - the Dragon and I took the monumental leap of expanding our beautiful family and ten weeks ago welcomed our son, let's call him Bo Bo as that is what his sister calls him. Lawyermummie is currently on a government funded maternity leave. Contrary to all expectations, including my own, I am absolutely LOVING my time off as this time with my family has been some of the best of my life. That's not to say that there have not been ups and downs - indeed, that is what you will read about here - but after nearly tens years at the Bar with its attendant workaholic tendencies, the opportunity to be a full time mummie simpliciter is one which I cherish.
