Reflections . . .

Last night, my oldest son and I went to the PTSA meeting where he received certificates, kudos and recognition for making it to the state level with his entry in to the annual Reflections competition.  Here he is pictured with his school principal and the county’s PTA chapter president:

A very proud mummy I was indeed!

What’s a good running song?

I now have no excuse for not getting out there to run.  My darling hubby (yes, love him one minute and can’t stick him the next) found my gorgeous pink i-pod!  We had thought that the little munchkin had accidentally disposed of it as one day he was playing with it and then it was [...]

Please tell me why . . .

. . . it is that my hubby decided to take the most putrid smelling poop right before my company arrived.  We have three toilets in our house, yes, THREE, so why pick the downstairs one that opens up to the family room where we will be hanging out?  Go upstairs with your smell, I say! [...]

Memorial Day Weekend . . .

We spent Memorial Day at my mum’s house on the water and very nice it was as well!

Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr . . .

Mess.
This word can be interpreted in many different ways. 
What is a mess to you may not be a mess to me and vice verse.

A mess to me is not a couple of toys strewn about.  It’s the breakfast crumbs still on the floor at the end of the day, [...]

Well, in an open invitation on Mumof4’s blog!  Have a go at it yourself if you are so inclined . . .
1. Where is your mobile phone?
Errr, it’s either in the car or in my bag — never at the charging station which annoys DH immensely!
2. Your significant other?
Is upstairs still in bed.  [...]

You can’t see me . . . can you?

Oh my!
My little one’s latest trick is that when he is being terribly naughty, for example climbing on the coffee table or drawing on the floor with his crayons, he hides his eyes with his hands! It’s so funny and I have to hide my laughter when trying to continue disciplining him! Not sure what [...]

Hello again, hello . . .

That song is playing in my head as I say hello again to my little bloggie blog blog!!
The reason for my absence is that I have been working!  Shock, gasp, horror!  And, let me tell you — this working malarkey is for the birds!  No, not really!  After careful consideration, I had decided to go [...]
