I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
There are times my life is quite chaotic… and I swear it *isn’t* always my fault! Take this morning as an example. I take the kids to school as usual, with no problems to speak of and with the intention of continuing to the gym for yet more torture. However as I pull away from … More Flaming animals…
Might be a little quiet in here for a day or two. Somehow I managed to run the mower over my ‘computer glasses’ and wrecked them. My ‘spares’ have an arm missing… with the result that I can hardly see the screen! 🙂 Yes I could take out my contact lenses and use my ordinary … More Oops.
Out last night with the kids collecting lollies and sweets from the local neighbourhood. My daughters went by themselves in the end. The neighbours daughter was told she had too much homework to do so wasn’t allowed to go. I thought was a bit mean spirited really since it’s just one night, but there ya … More And away went the kids
Almost forgot to mention it’s Halloween tonight. Much as I loathe this Americanism it seems to have taken hold here as an excuse for kids to wander around people’s houses begging for lollies!! 🙂 My kids obviously took to this with much pleasure and now they team up with a young girl from across the … More Almost forgot
Not a lot happening really so yet again I missed a day yesterday! The eldest daughter was home again because of her tonsillitis, so I only spent an hour in the gym instead of the usual 2½ – 3 hours. The rest of the day was just a ‘blur’ chatting online to my sister-in-law in … More Quiet lately.
Had a good day on Sunday. Woke up early because the dogs don’t understand daylight saving any more than I do (see previous posts) and once up… I stay up. Started off mowing our little patch of heaven. Took ages but the sky was overcast and so was a bit cooler than usual. Also of … More Gardening, such fun.
Home alone?? I think not. The daughter was complaining over the past few days of a sore throat so this morning, off to the docs we go. He decided she has tonsillitis and has to have at least two days off. Oh gee thanks. Still it was worth going. She now has both a course … More Home alone?
I forgot to mention the start to my day. Daylight saving starts tonight… but because the wife was home Friday I got a bit disorientated and thought it was *today*. I woke at 5:15 a.m. to start nagging the kids to get dressed. The youngest has a skating lesson at 6:30 a.m. and the eldest … More Daylight saving.
Yes it’s true… Welsh Dog has finally reached the ‘Big Six Ohhhhh…. ‘, i.e. 60, today. Do I feel it? Well I didn’t until I went to the gym this morning and flogged myself into a stupor. Actually I decided there is nothing to be gained from over exerting myself any more. Since this ‘person’ … More Happy birthday me!!
The wife was intending to call the old man in the UK to let him know she was safely back. Unfortunately by the time she’d come out of customs and I’d dragged her off to the school to drop the kids off it was far too late for her to call. 😦 No doubt she … More Phone calls?
