Friday, April 30th, 2010I have a great mother’s group. We have been meeting weekly since miss A was a teeny tacker- a record five years or so- and I mostly love my friends. There are exceptions to every rule. Today was at my place and I was happy to see everyone…bar one. Tell me, why would anyone bring [...]
No.
Sunday, December 13th, 2009I am slothing around here at home. Alone. Which for those of you who have done the whole almost full term gig before know is sheer bliss. Necessary space when you already have two other boisterous non day sleeping kidlets. While my two ratbags are enjoying Santa photos and treats with the grandparents and mr [...]
The prodigal blogger
Friday, November 20th, 2009Hi there, remember me? I know, I know, I have not been the bestest blogger of late. It’s just that I don’t do the third trimester well. More specifically, I don’t do the sleep deprivation from flailing around in bed like a beached whale coupled with mood swings from massive hormonal surges at all. I [...]
Bodily fluid overload
Wednesday, January 21st, 2009My day commenced with A absolutely flooding her bed, I’m talking pillows, doona, sheets, sheet topper (those things are farking useless), mattress protector, comfort toys. The works. It ended with E pulling off her nappy as she pooed, covering herself, her nappy and the lounge room floor with a backlog of crap so enormous that [...]
Damaged goods
Tuesday, December 2nd, 2008Our lovely new floors already have a mighty big scratch and dent in a spot right in front of the TV where, last night, I threw and smashed a plate in sheer frustration, anger, and sadness. And then followed through with a sobbing fit that the entire street could hear. Don’t get me wrong, I [...]
Time out. Again.
Monday, November 17th, 2008Hello internerds. I have nothing of note to post and am in a very hissy mood because E, although mostly and slowly recovered, has decided to scream blue murder if she is placed in a cot to sleep anytime between 6 am and 8pm. I in turn have been spending a large proportion of these [...]
Not doing sick very well
Wednesday, November 12th, 2008Tell me people, whatever happened to the good old fashioned 24 hour stomach bug? E is still sick. She has lost so much weight and has so little energy from this stupid illness and the lack of sleep that has accompanied it (daytime sleep even though I am waking one to two hourly in the [...]
Meaningful or meaningless?
Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008Hi there? How’s things? Nice weather we’re having…. Um. So I’ve been a whole lot of nutcase a little bit craazzy of late. I’d blame the French, except they’re not the ones still waking me up for a feed once or twice a night now that they are in their own room. No names mentioned, [...]
Testing…one..doo..Memo to clothing manufacturers: builder’s cleavage is not appropriate for a threenager
Tuesday, July 8th, 2008What the hell is it with little girls’ clothing? I am sick to death of the fact that all pants and undies from the usual big chain department stores are hipster style, and no matter how big they are A’s little bottom keeps peeping out of the top. She’s not in the least bit comfortable, [...]
Not laughing, crying.
Tuesday, June 3rd, 2008First there was A’s ear infection. Then HFM for E and me. This was followed by another week of shocking sleep as E and I developed post lurgy snotty head colds. I’ve just returned from the doctor as I have the beginnings of another bout of mastitis. Now A is complaining that her ear is [...]
