Fun Monday – Pet Invasion

Monday, January 7, 2008

Todays Fun Monday is being hosted by the lovely Lisa Chaos who says, ‘Let’s meet your pets. I think most of us have at least one pet and I would like to see your fluffy or scaly pal. If you don’t have a camera you can tell us about him/her/them. If you [...]

What could it be?

It’s been a mad day today. Busy, fun, productive, but mad. Miss M and I spent the afternoon at The King & Miller, (a pub nicely situated opposite the local hospital), with a group of friends who have kids Miss M’s age, where we did secret Santas and a ton of hardcore playing. After picking up Miss E [...]

Ahhh today has been a good day and it’s only 9.11am. How cool is that? The Beaufoix babes are much better and Miss M woke at 1.00am and Daddy sorted her. I didn’t even stir. No really, I didn’t! And while I breakfasted the mini B’s on toast and fruit juice, they created works of art with Miss [...]

Remember Miss M’s body art incident? Well, we have progressed from arms and legs to other things… I’m all for creative exploration and self expression, but there has to be some limits right?? So, should I see this as a small hooligan with a brown felt-tip, graffiti-ing (is this a word??) a privately owned property? Or Miss M exercising her [...]

Have you ever seen an Ostrich with a hangover? It’s not a pretty sight… Barbara had far too much Creme De Menthe at the after show party last night and is feeling the effects, so much so that she is still in her dressing gown at five in the afternoon. Tsk. Daft bird. (My Coral Paintshop Pro X [...]

Mr B is in Notts rehearsing with his old band b-movie as they have a reunion gig in November. We’re eating lunch in the dining room. It’s nothing special, just sarnies, carrots, cucumber and grapes. Suddenly Miss M gives a squeal. Miss M: “Dare’s a fy, dare’s a fy.” I look up at the bay window and [...]

Today Miss M seemed to have forgotten about the rainbow poop. Hooray. Unfortunately, this afternoon I was introduced to the turtle poop. Miss M: “Mummy, my done a turtle.” Me: “Ohhh, it does look a bit like a turtle doesn’t it?” Miss M: “It a turtle poo.” Me: “Shall we take the turtle upstairs for a swim [...]

Ok. As promised, memes two and three today. But first this. At RC’s site yesterday we were given the opportunity to take the Nerd test and I am proud to say I am slightly nerdy. Look, I have proof. How cool is that? I mean, none of you guessed I was a bit of a nerd right? You can’t tell I’m the [...]

“Mummy, mummy, come and see what I’ve done” That was Miss E hailing me at 10 o’clock last night. I’m just having a quick game of Pirates on Facebook while Mr B makes a cuppa (rock and roll). “E, you should be asleep babe” I say as I march up the stairs, smiling with anticipation. What is [...]
