It’s For the Birds

      No Comments on It’s For the Birds

Which is to say, that which is featured in today’s image is. Smallhausen had a school trip to the scout yard as she does pretty much every term, and this was a project they did. It’s got peanuts, raisins, popcorn… all the thing a bird is going to like, right? I just hope that Smalls gets a chance to spot… Read more »

Stay of Cake-ecution

      No Comments on Stay of Cake-ecution

The Cakefest fundraiser was originally supposed to be Friday night. I’ve had dreams I’d forgotten to make cakes, so I even remembered to bring my recipe binder through so I could start looking for what recipe (or two) I felt like doing. I saw today that the event has been bumped off to the seventh, so that means I don’t… Read more »

Ridiculous Threads

      No Comments on Ridiculous Threads

In addition to Z’s parents generously buying us a new bed, they have also told us to buy new linens for it. They quoted us a figure that we were bemused by… but quickly understood when we started shopping a bit more upscale like they would. And they met mum’s approval, hee hee. I won’t lie, I’m looking forward to… Read more »

Laundry Inspector

      No Comments on Laundry Inspector

Any time I’ve got the clean laundry spread across the bed, Batman thinks that it is his solemn duty to bury himself in my share of it. I get it, he’s my jealous boyfriend, and he’s got to get his smell all over my things. I annoyed him by trapping him in and smooching his face — after annoying him… Read more »

Cinnamon

      No Comments on Cinnamon

I have to preface with saying that yes, cinnamon rolls happened, but my dumbass left the oven on half the day before I was reminded that the oven was on. Whups. But at least they did happen, and were well received by the fam (and I got to eat most of them anyways <__<). Today has been a laid back… Read more »

Underwater

      No Comments on Underwater

Today has been… wet. There’s been a little bit of thunder, a couple spells of heavy rain, and on the whole has been delightful (except where I had to run through it, ha ha). Forecasters are saying we’re going to get more of the same over the next week, so as long as it doesn’t affect the school run, I’m… Read more »

My Water is Tooooo Pretentious

      No Comments on My Water is Tooooo Pretentious

Okay this isn’t the most inspired picture, even if it’s a picture of how my water is inspired by clouds. Yeah, your guess is as good as mine on that line of backlabel marketing. All I know is that the bottle has a sports cap, and takes up less room on my desk than the pitcher I had. I have… Read more »

Corner Views

I cannot remember if I’ve told this story here before, so I will take a moment to tell it now. My first Christmas in this country, my mother-in-law bought me several rosebushes to plant in our ‘garden’ (if you can call a bunch of effin’ rock ground cover a garden) — because she knew I loved roses and considered them… Read more »

Oh My

      No Comments on Oh My

So, I had my blood drawn for testing yesterday. And then I got a call this afternoon telling me that the results were in, and the doctor would be calling me Monday… oh my, ha ha. So whatever it is, it’s serious enough that they need to talk to me soon, but not serious enough that I’m going to die… Read more »

One Pain or Another

      No Comments on One Pain or Another

Today has been an annoyingly ouchy day. General pain aside, I got slammed with a brutal headache earlier. I’m pretty sure it was trying to head towards a migraine, but extra caffeine + codeine seems to have beaten it to the pass. So of course, while I’m celebrating that, I start cramping out of nowhere… sigh. At least being in… Read more »
