Three Things on Halloween

October 31, 2008

Tidying Up… We have friends coming to stay tomorrow and it is just the boot up the bum I have needed to get our house back into some kind of order. Tomorrow I will do the every day boring house cleaning jobs, with helpers, and they are actually pretty helpful. Tonight I tackled the study…. [...]

If you can’t beat em….

October 30, 2008

We don’t do Halloween in our house. Growing up Halloween was just not something that was celebrated here, though in recent years, I guess with more and more US culture being assimilated into our own culture more and more people are celebrating…. but not us.

Three Little Things From My Day…

October 28, 2008

Chasing my tail… We’ve been almost late for everything today and it looks like dinner will be no different. I wonder if the rushing from thing to thing will ever end? Worrying… It looks our new rooster may be on his last legs. I’ve had a good read of Back Yard Poultry and I am [...]

A Man of Few Words.

October 25, 2008

My boy doesn’t say much. He is the strong silent type…. Actually he isn’t silent at all really. He grunts and shrieks and screams and moans and clicks and snorts and moos. Yep, he moos. Really, it’s not so strange when you think about it. His first ‘word’ was ‘Duck’, closely followed by ‘quack’. Now [...]

Happy Birthday Baldy Boy.

October 24, 2008

It is my darling husband’s birthday today. We celebrated on Tuesday – his pretend birthday, because he had to work today and then, as he does almost every Friday night, he’s gone out to play cards with ‘the boys’ so we won’t see him at all today (we were all asleep when he left and [...]
