It’s Actually Happening

      No Comments on It’s Actually Happening

I know, I know, I keep going on about how the socks are going to be the same colour, but it blows my mind for some reason. I guess that I both amaze and amuse easily? I guess also in part because I wonder if it’s going to happen again with the next skein. I suspect that I will be… Read more »

All Curls

      No Comments on All Curls

I managed to rub a few spoons together to do a joint bath with the littlest one. She is, as far as kids go, a fairly good bathing companion, but it’s hard to wash one’s hair with someone else in the bathtub. Still, we persevered, and cleanliness and temporary coolness were achieved. So of course, a short while later I… Read more »

Out For Adventure (Sort Of)

      No Comments on Out For Adventure (Sort Of)

Z was volunteering at the school today, so I had the car to myself. Which was great — it meant that I could go fetch Littler without having to drag her home. Bless the poor thing, she had to keep stopping on Monday to catch her breath because of the heat, and it’s only hotter today. I had discarded the… Read more »

Yeah, No Idea

      No Comments on Yeah, No Idea

I was a bit at a loss as to what to do for my picture today, so I just sort of waggled my phone camera around until something looked vaguely interesting/arty. I’m not really sure my arm looking all weird and elongated (with no editing!) *really* fills that remit, but never mind. At this point, it’s more about the challenge… Read more »

Fab, Innit

The last couple of days have slammed into ‘hot’ so hard that I find myself wanting ice lollies like none other. And like, where last week ice cream was divine, this week I’m past the point where I sanely want to put dairy anything in my face. A bit of chocolate and vanilla is fine over the strawberry, but alas,… Read more »

Grr

First of all, I apologise if you didn’t get the snazziness of a featured image today. For some reason, I can’t get the gallery to accept uploads. I don’t know if there’s something down at Dreamhost, or something down at our end, but whatever. You still get a picture here at least? Of course, today’s picture comes to you compliments… Read more »

Pleasant Travels

      No Comments on Pleasant Travels

Yeah okay, I know, it’s all gloomy and rainy, but like… I dig it, especially when the temp is just low enough that the heat factor humidity brings isn’t murdering me. It was cool enough to be pleasant and fresh, and that is invigorating after a fashion. Having said that, still recovering from last weekend, woo chronic fatigue. ¬¬ At… Read more »

Drip Drip Drop

      No Comments on Drip Drip Drop

Seeing how we’re creeping up on summertime here, the UK remembers its place in the world, and the rain is chucking it down. I would have not minded, except for the school run. So I took pain meds. I put Deep Heat on my stiff knees. I shook out my raincoat and got my head into the right space to… Read more »

Fade Into You

      No Comments on Fade Into You

I’m still tired. And, bemusingly, eating like I’ve not had a meal in days. I had a huge chunk of leftover shepherd’s pie for lunch, and a ginormous kebab + chips for dinner. I guess I shouldn’t be that surprised. After all, I’ve been ill enough the past week or so that I find myself shaking. That is definitely lessened… Read more »

Silently Judging You

      No Comments on Silently Judging You

Well okay, not really, but it seemed the best caption to go with this picture of Poison. Any judging that HAS been done in the house in the past 24 hours have been accompanied by lots of laughs and snarkasm, because Eurovision. It was a good show, we had a good time, and as per norm, not a one of… Read more »
