I said I wasn’t going to watch X Factor this year. I didn’t last year as I had grown disheartened by the fact that genuinely talented people don’t always succeed and that a lot of the winners just seem to disappear off the face of the planet. What’s the point? The point is, I get emotionally invested! I had a couple of early episodes on in the background as I’ve gotten Jenson off to sleep the last couple of weekends and I’m bleddy hooked. I’ve been watching them on demand this weekend and Jenson has gotten into it too! I think we’ll be tuning in this evening…

My kids also love watching the X Factor and I too am enjoying it again this year despite swearing I wouldn’t watch it again.
