A threenager of letters

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

As I have mentioned more than once in passing, I harbour no aspirations to be a writer. There is the matter of a lack of talent, as well as an unwillingness to turn my gaze inwards and search for the right words to convey my feelings in a profound manner. I freely admit that as [...]

How a threenager renders you speechless. Again.

Tuesday, April 8th, 2008

It is earlier this evening, and A and mr hissychick are taking a shower while I bathe E. All is as it should be -cosy domestic humdrum- until A pipes up with the following: A (gravely as she draws on the shower screen with bath crayons): Daddy, I’ve got a bolva (vulva)*, although some people [...]

Not a good idea

Thursday, April 3rd, 2008

My mother’s group have been rather slack of late when it comes to organising our usual weekly get together for many and varied reasons which I won’t bore you with. Which is how I found myself at a softplay centre this morning. Just A, E and me. Ahh playcentres. Silly me just thought I merely [...]

Provided they are nice, otherwise I’ll pout. Anyway. In keeping with my new and improved shiny goodness, I thought I would share some [...]

Anarchy chez hissychick, rhinovirus style

Wednesday, February 13th, 2008

It is lurgy central here at chez hissychick, with A, E and I succumbing to colds of the extremely snotty nosed variety. We’ve all dealt with it in our own way: A being A was happy to while away an entire day watching episodes of Playschool, and was back to her usual cheery self in [...]

It’s all happening

Thursday, January 31st, 2008

Tomorrow I will be braving the supermarket and spending way too much cashola on sugar and preservative laden non food and plasticky crap for A’s birthday party. And let’s not forget the cake, the butterfly cake, the BUTTERFLY cake that miss A has been telling all and sundry about, the one she keeps gazing at [...]
