In the garden with li'l Blue Eyes


Diz enjoys some summer sunshine - Aug 2013

It didnt last long though. Those brilliant skies and bright sunshine have been replaced with concrete grey autumn vibes and rain. Lots of rain.. My mojo has fled with the warmth and I dream of hibernation in a warm, cozy cave.. or a holiday... if someone has some spare air fare and a sunlounger by a pool, please let me know.
 
Still, D continues to lighten up my day. 18 months old on Wednesday, she gets cuter and funnier every day. Even the tantrums are still cute (I wonder how long that lasts?) and I [mostly] have sympathy with her tears when she is upset. Is that normal??? Maybe it'll change by her teenage years....
 
Anyway, the family are away. I am at home with the cat and my To Do List for company. You know what it's like though. All those chores that need fixing get left when something more tempting comes calling. Like cricket on the radio. Or some really fascinating documentaries on the Internet. I would be writing a novel here on the dangers of procrastination but I'll get around to it tomorrow....
 
The kiddies have been a challenge at work recently. It seems they are ready to fly the nest to their 'Big Schools' and get more restless by the day. The laughs still come though, a four year old's sense of observation can sometimes be just as sharp as an adults with amusing results. I was discussing the Cebeebies show 'Magic Hands' with B the other day and he went to great lengths impersonating a deaf presenter signing. With hands fluttering like a tic tac man and tongue flapping like someone being electrocuted, he gave me the best laugh in weeks.
