Well, I can report that this party seems to be going well. Only one person had to leave early for naps, but I’m glad that we had her for as long as we did. bat has stayed upright by the magical power of Adderall, for which I am grateful. I mean, if they had needed a nap, I would not… Read more »

A Day

      No Comments on A Day

That’s really all it’s been. I’ve been here, and more or less existing. I’ve done some knitting, I’ve been poking at puzzles on Flight Rising… that’s seriously about it. Well, and I cut up some jalapenos too, so that’s something. Even though I washed my hands, the burnination is imbedded in my fingers; I’m not sure I want to pick… Read more »

Serious Face is Serious

Oh okay, it’s not actually serious. But as I forgot to take pictures earlier, I had to scramble for something and I thought ‘Selfie, ’cause hair stick’. Z found a green one that I’d mislaid years ago when we were going through stuff before bat got here, so I’m happy to put it to use. Nothing in particular happened today,… Read more »

This Has Been a Post

Okay so like, I’m running hella short on time, so hello, speedposting! I did a dead good job of sitting still and not doing anything today. That included rounding off the year ends that needed doing for work, but not much else in that regard. I also eventually managed a bath to do that whole vaguely normal passing thing, so… Read more »

Full of Stars

I’m a sucker for new pajama bottoms any time I walk past a display of them. Which means that, mysteriously, I’ve acquired another pair in the past week. They get top marks so far, as they are kind of fuzzy, covered in stars, and has pockets. One of the pockets has a tiny hole in it, but yanno, that can… Read more »

The Other Two

I was running back and forth earlier when I noticed a white van pull up outside. I opened the door, since I knew it was likely to be a parcel, and noticed it was a Yodel van. My hypothesis that it was the remainder of my wool was answered when I clocked that it was indeed the signature pink bag…. Read more »

The Bat Has Landed

I’m pleased that I managed to take the least flattering picture of me ever to express my joy of being back with my bat. They are here, we’re fed, and much happiness is the order of the day. Well, they’ve just gone up to bed, and I’ve eaten their dinner remnants atop mine. I am going to sleep like none… Read more »

Bye Stuff!

Z and I continued our efforts on behalf of clearing up the house — and garage. This is a photo I took while we were at the tip, ’cause I like signs, and signs in a line are even more fun. Most of what we got out of the house were baby things, like the crib, carrier, and high chair…. Read more »

Sugar Crush

Cake! So many cakes! A surfeit of cakes! So what does Smalls want when she gets to pick? She asked for the cake I made and brought, ha ha. She had a cupcake as well, and decided that she needed to help me eat my lunch atop that. It was a pleasant way to spend an hour out of the… Read more »

Let There Be Baking

It’s been a long day. It’s been productive, so I’m a bit wiped out as a result. I made some good progress on work things, which was a relief after being so ill yesterday. Z and I organised to go to the store so I could get some baking bits//get some pizza from the pizza counter, and that went well…. Read more »
