Another bad, bad night. Between D snoring and J waking up, moving around, playing and generally making noise, I'm functioning on caffeine and sex.
A friend was supposed to come over with her baby this morning after dropping her older two at school and nursery (respectively). I had a pretty rough time getting up - D got kids ready; in fact, I ( Read more... ) -

Hellish night with J last night. Ouch. He literally climbed out of bed dozens of times. D managed to sleep through most of it but did get up once or twice. Still, hellish. I spent most of today feeling tired and slugish and a bit shaky. It doesn't help that we were up rather late last night ;-)

We did our usual "week in review" at dinner tonight. M sent email to his friend who's gone back to the US, B couldn't come up with anything he'd done for someone else, D helped a PhD student. I've done a few things this week, but I was thinking more about the ways in which I fucked up this week. Like not communicating with D the way I should ( Read more... ) -
Veganism
I promised to post some food pics, so here goes... D had a Japanese colleague staying with us overnight last year and he makes a point of photographing pretty much every meal he eats. I've photographed a selection over the last couple of months. Enjoy!
