A whirlwind of baloons, pass the parcel and musical chairs still doesn't erase the looming knowledge of my overflowing in-box. I have sadly taken to requesting that the pretty people around me refrain from tempting me with invitations to enjoy life. I do miss the outside world but I think I really need the one that I'm in for the time being. Loopy ( Read more... )

Today is a fantasmagorical day.......... and thats not just because its my birthday. So far upon this bountiful morning, I have received a phone call notifying me that my scholarship application has made it to the second-round selection process. Additionally, my credit card application has been approved and I have also managed to talk my way out of ( Read more... )

Anyone who has a daughter between the ages of 2 and 10 would be very familiar with that schmucky show on telly in the afternoons called "Saddle Club". It's about 3 young girls who grow up on a horse ranch, they each have a horse and they randomly break into song and dance etc...Well last night I dreamt that I had to exorcise demons out of the ( Read more... )

My night time technique employed to silence my child and to encourage her to drift into dreamland has left me in foetal position and scaling the walls. Ha - its not that bad really, more silly than bad! As Justaprimate suggested, I've been leaving her door open at night time as bribery to get her to sleep. Strangely, its working.

It hasn't been a hard and fast rule given that the last few entries have been inspired by my old friend misery, BUT, things are looking up ( Read more... )

I'd like to take a brief moment to re-cap on how much I would like to vomit on monogamy. Furthermore, this week can go fuck itself.

Ayla told me over and over again this morning that she really needs to go and see the ducks go swimming in the sky again? (WTF) And we have also established that when she grows up, she would like to be a Kangaroo. Bless her.

Thankyou to the lovely peoples that spent the balmy friday night watching me pour vast amounts of beer down my throat and for remaining consistantly engrossed, even when I managed to change the conversation from discussions of the primordial mitochondria to the colour of my urine during my kidney infection. I really had a great night, enjoying my ( Read more... )

As much I have been enjoying the beautiful unity between mother and daughter full time for five solid months, I cant help but squeal with delight at the fact that the beautiful daughter will be taken on a little adventure with her grandparents over the long week end. This being the most recent and probobaly one of the very few times that I will ( Read more... )
