Dentist

My husband wants to go to the dentist, Because he’s in such pain! I had a dozen abscesses last year; And you don’t hear me complain!   But my husband insists on a dentist, Old pliers aren’t good enough! I’m the only one in my family, Who can deal with a tooth that is tough!Continue reading “Dentist”

Cherise Wins!

Let’s go back to 2009. Within a few days of buying our new little puppy Cherise Gavin went insane.  No this was not our first dog; I had lived with dogs all my life and we had owned 4 as a couple. Gavin had always made fun of people; like my parents, who bought coatsContinue reading “Cherise Wins!”

He Let His Mind Wander, Now People Will See It.

My husband has started a blog.  Oh I know you may recall that I actually made him a blog as a present; but its not that one.  He is still ignoring that one; but do I feel bitter?  Yes, yes I do, very bitter, more bitter than usual if you can believe that. It isContinue reading “He Let His Mind Wander, Now People Will See It.”

Look, I took a Photo

I am really proud of this picture. Of course the secret is the model: Look at my boy Danger posing so beautifully for his Grandma (He’s Tash’s amphibian). I had grabbed my camera to take a photo of my lazy layabout , the currently concussed but continually confused Gavin when Danger saw the camera andContinue reading “Look, I took a Photo”

Man Concussion

Don’t blame me, he said it.  “I have man concussion like man flu!” You know how when a woman gets concussion she reassures the kids and gets on with it (actually I was nicer & got more done because I was confused); men use their baby has a boo-boo voice and need someone to cut theContinue reading “Man Concussion”

Finally Embracing Normalcy or Should We Have Eaten That Goblin!

So we are playing Dungeons & Dragons.   I have played once before as a teenager; actually I always really wanted to play but it was more a guy thing and I wasn’t pushy as a kid.  No seriously, it may be hard to believe but in person; except with my husband & kids I amContinue reading “Finally Embracing Normalcy or Should We Have Eaten That Goblin!”

It’s Back To 6 Days Ago

In my last post I took 200 words just to mention that the previous post was part of the same series as this.  So for the sake of brevity just: Read 6 Days Ago. then 5 Days Ago and then this one.  Just believe me, its best. Are you back? Okay! So, somewhat stupidly I left off at nagging.Continue reading “It’s Back To 6 Days Ago”

5 Days Ago

No this is not just a quirky name.  I like quirky names, don’t you?  They kind of cheer you up when your life is ebbing down the drain.  They are the tinkle and gurgle that makes you laugh hysterically before the men in white coats tighten the staitjacket & give you the nice pills. MmmmContinue reading “5 Days Ago”

6 Days Ago.

Time is a confusing concept. Gavin took my new computer to fix a small problem I had when I tried to publish a post. I was expecting a 10 to 15 minute fix or an explanation of why it took longer.  The next morning 10 hours of working time, you know if you discount timesContinue reading “6 Days Ago.”

How Many Cats?

As I was sitting in my own lounge room; carefully selecting wrapping paper and gift tags (homemade of course) to suit each individual, using my best Sheaffer pens to write their names in calligraphy; my husband just started an argument out of the blue.  He said I was crazy!  I asked him, politely, what madeContinue reading “How Many Cats?”
