So now the Princess is back, we are into the swing of adult children visits. As some of you know adult children are different to small children. They are still a wealth of entertainment and strangeness, just in a different way.
Unintended Consequences-A Guest Post
Today I am featuring a post from a blogger friend, this incident happened recently and because she didn’t feel comfortable posting on her own blog where the woman involved may see it, I offered her a voice.
Voodoo In the ‘Hood?

The Truth Must Be Shared
Let’s talk secret women’s business, ok to be more precise, secret ‘older’ women’s business. The dreaded menopause. Yup I dared to speak the word. The change of life.
