Reality Me

Blast. A bill I thought was paid has reared its ugly again. $675 in a collectors hands.

Still feeling out my style with PHP Liking the if (): else: endif: syntax.

Time to quit fooling around. Where’s my water gun! The cat’s gonna get it! That’s better. Now she’s a gargoyle on the monitor. Much better.

Now, why is it that when you are changing the messiest diaper you’ve seen in a long time that the wipes refuse to cooperate and keep falling back into the container. At least the baby was very cooperative! I laid her down on the couch and she arched her back keeping only her head, shoulders and heals touching the couch. She was confused when I didn’t return her pajamas to her. I must go find her clothes. I wish I could record her right now. She is talking talking talking talking. So fun and pleasant!

The first thing she asks for after being changed is “nana nana!”

When I squat in front of this computer to type, the baby stands on my legs and hops up and down watching me type.

The 13 yr old’s bus arrived today and despite me rushing to the front door and opening it wide, he still honked the horn! This irritates me enough that I go out and politely ask him not to do that because of the number of “sleeping babies” about. He’s a nice guy but the horn should really only be used if we aren’t responding at all.

The baby is awake.

A New Day!

Let’s start the day off with a PayPal donation link:

This Morning

Yikes! Overslept. I actually was up at 5:45 and refueled the fire. I should have kept moving. Went back to bed and didn’t get the kids up until 6:30. Must prepare for carpool.

My cat says I’ve been on the computer enough. She is practically standing on the keyboard begging attention. She needs a bath and a grooming but I need my arms instead of bloody stumps.

Tense moment with the 13 yr old I only raised my voice once and not that loud at all! He yelled enough to make my head throb.

Wow. Once we’ve trained ourselves to be short and snappy with people it certainly is difficult to not jump straight into barking mode; however, it is possible to retrain ourselves. These old dogs can still learn a few new tricks! I still slip up and am either overly firm or snappy with the teenager on things that I should be lighter about but each time I am a little less firm and less snappy or the incidence of it is more brief. And I can always analyze myself during and afterwards. Look out David Caridean! This grasshopper is growing!

Had the pleasure of helping my son practice scientific notation. Helping these kids with their homework is very pleasant as sometimes it makes the brain ache trying to remember the facts; makes you want to go to school again!

Oh my son

Life is fun

When you are seven

And there is so much to do

Let’s pay attention

When a whizzing

And make sure

We aim true

With your little hose

So close to the bowl

Try to hit the water

and not your toes!

Should there be a miss

resulting in a puddled mess

Be embarrassed not

To clean up the lot!

Play with the kids
