Argghhh, early starts...
Off to breakfast meeting (early starts don't set well with me!) and then meeting a publisher about a new book idea (top-secret). So later today I'll check in - have some things I want to share with you and I'm going to put up an extra "your e-mail of the week" as the inbox is overloaded. Till then! Pam X
Couldn't stop yawning during my breakfast meeting - simply not brain-awake. I was literally forcing myself not to yawn during our conversation. And sods law, when you're trying to stifle a yawn it gets worse and worse. But we finally got through the issues we wanted to cover.
But now that I'm back writing this at 1:40 PM it feels like I've done a full day's work. Much rather go for drinks after work for an extra meeting being a night owl.
Lots of fun stuff in the papers today: Off the back Gavin Henson's alleged "torment" at "seeing another man bring up my children" brings this terribly important topic to mind.
Of course parents feel threatened when they know their children have been introduced to their ex's new partner . It's extremely important to move on and make sure you put your child's welfare first. No matter what!
TODAY’S THOUGHT: There are many things to be considered to ensure your child/children have the best possible experiences when you may not be thinking straight after your breakup. In brief, don't row in front of them, don't use them as pawns in some sort of game of 'getting back each othe'r, and be fair about access.
Back to chat up lines - recently I wrote an article on the fun of chat lines as a survey found that around 70% of women actually enjoy them. The man that useslines might not be successful with them, but she enjoys the attention and the giggles that goes with his embarrassment, or the fact that the line’s actually funny. And he might be surprised that he gets a giggle but nothing more.
Would love it if you e-mail me some of the best and worst chat up lines you've heard to my homepage e-mail (see the yellow star) that says "your e-mail of the week". I've had a couple terrible ones that I will confess to if you give me some of yours.
Birth order is a biggie! As Jamie Oliver finally has a boy I'd love to -if I hae time - write an open letter to Jamie about the perils of having a fourth child of the sex you've been waiting for. I have three older brothers and I always had this feeling that my parents couldn't wait to have a girl. It's a lot of pressure! Then again there are tons of benefits - but Jamie has to be aware not let new son, Buddy, get spoilt! Because hands up, it's quite easy to get spoilt by three older brothers and I'm sure in Buddy's future life by three older sisters who would dote on you.
Love, Pam X
