Two Like Glue

      No Comments on Two Like Glue

Tonight’s picture comes to you compliments of the girls being silly after dinner. I’m not sure whose idea it was out of the two of them, but they kept the up and down going for a good few minutes. And then Littler topped it off by walking over to me and trying to climb me like one of those climbing… Read more »

Pride

Smallhausen has a lot of fear-anxiety in her. It’s something that we as her parents understand, because it’s a problem we have as well. The only difference is that we have more years of experience with it, so we can sort of work with/around it. For her, it still pushes her into total shutdown panic, and it takes a lot… Read more »

Bubbles

      No Comments on Bubbles

If there was one thing that the girls wanted to do today, it was to get out on the back garden and play with some bubbles.  I was dragging my heels on assisting them because I was trying to get work-work done, but  I eventually got them dressed… just in time for Z to show up with, surprise, bubble guns….

That Western War

      No Comments on That Western War

Being, of course, the correct way to eat a scone during a cream tea. For what it’s worth, I had one each way and couldn’t make my mind up as to which was better, so I guess I’m just going to have to eat more scones until I have a more definitive opinion. I suspect that it’s going to be… Read more »

A Day in a Picture

      No Comments on A Day in a Picture

Today was the first day of half-term. And as it is during half-term, Smallhausen always reminds me that she wants her nails painted. She can’t have them at school and she takes after me in loving having a splash of colour on her fingertips. I usually sort of muttergrumble and forget to do it, but this time I sucked it… Read more »

Derfacé

      No Comments on Derfacé

That’s der-fach-che to you, ha ha. I had a lack of pictures on my phone, so I figured I’d take a silly selfie. After all, people are more likely to read things in if there’s some sort of picture right? <__< Today has been one of those days where I have negative focus. I couldn’t get my head into work… Read more »

What the Eff, Skin?

      No Comments on What the Eff, Skin?

I’m having an acne breakout right now. I’m not impressed. I’m even less impressed because the lot of them seem to be cystic rather than poppable, so they’re just *there* and painful and not doing a thing besides being annoying and lumpy. There is one coming up over my eyebrow that I discovered by brushing it gently, which sent a… Read more »

The Lady Waits

      No Comments on The Lady Waits

Today has been a mixed bag. I woke up and found out that someone had died that was, to me, a problematic person. I knew she was going to die any time for the past decade or so, so her actually dying wasn’t a shock to my system. After all, my stepfather has been terminally ill for like, 30 years… Read more »

A Surplus of Cake

      No Comments on A Surplus of Cake

Went into work. Got stuff done, got some other stuff not done, and managed to stump myself and a co-worker. I guess par for the course when I’m actually in the office, ha ha. But yeah, I’m going to die by cake before the week is out. We took in a cake to the office because ‘office rules’ are people… Read more »

*pats own face*

      No Comments on *pats own face*

I’m tired, heh. It’s not like I’ve done much of anything today, but I’m still tired. I managed the one thing I *had* to do past childcare, which was bathing. I was commenting to Z that I wish it didn’t take so many spoons to handle bathing, ’cause I was feeling so freaking good for getting scrubbed off. I guess… Read more »
