Break the Spine

      No Comments on Break the Spine

Today was the first day back to school, and because of how the school does the Reception year, I had to go pick Littler up at midday. It was sort of nice, insomuch that it’s been some time since I’ve had to do that. She was very chatty, and it was a pleasant walk back home. We get to do… Read more »

Baby Love

It’s here! My love! Our new printer, that is. Z and I are both big fans of stationary and stationary-related goodies, so a new printer to replace the model that’s as old as our marriage was a Good Thing™Â®. Add in the fact that work agreed to pay for it since I mainly am going to be use it for… Read more »

Plans For the Weekend

      No Comments on Plans For the Weekend

I’m gonna say that this plan was a fairly obviously one — playing games, and knitting. I’ve trotted out Animal Crossing: New Leaf to start giving it a serious looking at. Of course, since it’s at the start more or less, it’s a lot of ‘wait until later’. So basically I’ve been spending my time fishing and grinding up currency. Ah… Read more »

Nearly Ready

Tomorrow is the day we set off. This picture was from a trip to the store to grab a few last-minute bits, and I took this while waiting for Z to get checked out (I take the girls past the tills so they’re not in the way). I’ve got my non-suitcase bags to finish sorting, but it’s coming along. I… Read more »

It’s Getting Real

      No Comments on It’s Getting Real

Today’s task for the fam was to get our cases packed for our holiday. Z is a mega-star and sorted out his case, and the girls’ cases, leaving just mine to me. I’ve probably packed too much because that’s what I tend to do, but at least it’s done. Tomorrow I’ll have to deal with my other bags, but those… Read more »

All the Burning

It is officially Too Hot™ and Too Bright™ to take a picture outside without me looking like a total doof. Still, trying to share the goodness of my red hair, and that requires outside photos. What can I say, I’m happy with how it looks… but that ‘looks best’ is outside. In the sun. D’oh. *laughs* At least it’ll get… Read more »

Hail!

      No Comments on Hail!

Amongst the five million other jobs Z did today, he found time to help me build my new chair. I didn’t expect it to take long, but it was over even faster than I expected. Apparently it was designed to be done by one person, so two definitely made for quicker hands. While the distance between my butt and the… Read more »

Thunderplump

We finally, *finally* got a bit of rain. It didn’t last that long, but at least it happened. I think my head feels a tiny bit better for it, but it’s hard to tell; it’s been non-stop crap for weeks now. Which, of course, doesn’t help my sanity as far as work is concerned. I was starting to feel optimistic… Read more »

Summer in…

      No Comments on Summer in…

I went outside for a minute to try and capture how my hair looks in natural light… -200/10, would not recommend going outside. It’s supposed to be hotter again tomorrow, which ugh. But it’s also supposed to be thunderstorms finally, which would be an effin’ godsend. I’m pretty sure that we’re in the area that hasn’t gotten rain since May…… Read more »

Dye Moar

      No Comments on Dye Moar

As I desired to do today, I have done — mah hair is re-reded. It’s slowly doing the drying thing, though that should go fairly quickly /be done before bedtime in the scheme of things thanks to the air conditioner. It’s almost dry enough to get it brushed out, though it’ll probably be tomorrow before I get a reasonable idea… Read more »
