It’s not my day off, it’s my life – how did this saying come about – last year I retired from my full time job after 17 years, but went back to work for three days a week.  The days I wasn’t at work my son would ask if I was enjoying my day off – and my response was I was not having a day off from work adding it’s not my day off, its my life!

Dear Mumsy,

This WordPress blog is especially for you. 

If you can spare a few moments, once in a while, tap out a few words with the help of your trusty keyboard.  You can write anything, absolutely anything.

Tell us about fracturing your elbow, all your employment adventures, meeting your grandchildren for the first time, falling in love … You can use it to remember the past, detail the present and dream of the future. 

Then again, you can just forget about it and let it grow dusty in a virtual corner somewhere.

Love, The Daughter x
