Whatever comes to mind I can’t think of a category for… or can’t be faffed making one for.
And so this is Xmas.
December 23, 2007
After the sojourn to the Ice Rink and saga of the internal squabbling described in the last post, and the fun of finding the pool being wrecked… we finally set out to finish off the shopping and buy ‘little’ stuff. The first thing we bought was totally inessential… but something we both agreed we wanted. … More And so this is Xmas.
Talking of skating…
December 23, 2007
We’ve had ‘political’ ructions at the Sydney Ice Arena recently. As said on many occasions, the youngest daughter is a competent little skater and goes to the rink at least three times a week spending three hours or more there each time. It’s a bit of a waste of *my* time since I have to … More Talking of skating…
Twas on the Monday morning…
December 21, 2007
‘Twas on the Monday morning that the poolman came to call… a couple of Mondays ago maybe… anyway the pump wasn’t working properly so they removed it… kept is for days… cleared leaves out of the impeller (they said)… and replaced it in situ. Two days later it stopped again. I rang, told them the … More Twas on the Monday morning…
Sporadic posts rule.
December 19, 2007
Xmas is coming and I’m not getting fat… yet 🙂 There’s just too much to do for me to keep blogging as much as usual, so for the next few days there won’t be as much happening in here as usual. Apart from the usual cleaning stuff Xmas is just around the corner and the … More Sporadic posts rule.
Ah yes… ok… hmmm.

The wife pointed out in one of her comments to the entry called “Wife on her way home!” that I’d missed out some of the story of Friday’s events. For a start the eldest child was to go to a Guides Sleepover at 6:30 p.m., but because of one thing and another… such as the … More Ah yes… ok… hmmm.
And I've been where??
December 17, 2007
Saturday… what happened? Beats me. I know I took the youngest skating whilst the wife slept in… then we went shopping… came home… and?? No idea. Obviously we did *something* but I’ll have to ask her what that something actually was 🙂 I know I went to the Guide Hut to do some mowing at … More And I've been where??
Prize Day at the School!
December 13, 2007
Off we go to the school’s Presentation Day where all the kids who’ve done something worth getting an award for… get… an award. Sadly I missed the schooling of my first two kids because of all sorts of factors so I’m making sure I get as much out of these two as I can. Isn’t … More Prize Day at the School!
It's beginning to look a lot like Xmas.

The garden is slowly reaching it’s ‘seen from space’ look with both house and vegetation festooned with strings of sparkling lights flashing and twinkling for all their worth using up the worlds energy resources as if they’re going out of fashion. On one side of the garden we have our 8 foot snowman leaning over … More It's beginning to look a lot like Xmas.
Done as far as done can be.

The house isn’t clean. The house isn’t tidy. Neither am I come to that… but all of us (and it) are as good as we’re going to get. Kids are off to school despite having had yesterday off to visit the doctors because of sinusitis, sore throats and flu. They both have to clean out … More Done as far as done can be.
