A bit of Monday night random thoughts for you all.....cos I know you need it!
Please tell me I am not the only person who is regularly greeted with poo in the toilet? You know, you innocently walk into the bathroom and go to sit on the toilet to see that the person before you has not only failed to use toilet paper, but has also failed to flush? Do little kids just have this inept ability to "snap one off", or could it be that they have no problem walking around with poo stuck to their undies every day?
Told you it was random.....
I am taking a strange amount of joy in taping empty boxes together and filling them ONLY with stuff I am remotely interested in carting to the new house. I am taking even MORE joy in putting a whole bunch of crap next to said boxes, preparing them to go to their new home at the OP shop! Or bin - sssshhhhhhhhh........
I continue to be freaked out by the 13 year old MAN that is residing in my house. It just IS NOT RIGHT that he has gone from being a little boy to a mumbling, deep-voiced, pimply and somewhat hairy human being. It does not help that this person also thinks he can raise his voice and question every. single. thing. we. say. Nope, not helpful at all.
I wore leggings today. And leopard print. Together. I got some strange looks - I'm always in jeans or skirts - I think everyone at school pick up was confused? Cadyn was confused - Cheetah or Leopard?
We watched an epic of a basketball game on Saturday - Chelsea's under 10 team in the grand final - coached by my husband. They came from behind to draw and went in to double overtime. At some stage during the last 15 minutes of the game I felt like I was going to keel over. The Mum sitting next to me said I went white as a ghost whilst I took the "Brace" position you learn over many years of watching serious airline stewards. Lucky for me I had lollies in my bag and powerade was rampant on the bench! I can laugh about it now - but the serious side of this is that I have had a pathology request on the fridge for two months now. I'm off to have my GTT test tomorrow. Remember the two hour torture glucose test you have to have when you're pregnant? I am *meant* to have them every two years - post gestational diabetes with all four kids. These funny little episodes I have been experiencing for a few months now are hopefully not indicative of anything serious......cos I will seriously KILL someone if I can't eat chocolate or lollies anymore!!!!
And last but not least in this Monday mundane. During Chelsea and my post-grand-final-loss-shopping-trip, we I came across this delightful product.....
If I were Kate Middleton/Wales, I would not be a happy Princess!
Thanks for the laugh Midge! Exactly what I needed! I too am regularly greeted by a poo (accompanied by toilet paper however) as one of my kids ALWAYS forgets to flush *sigh* Love that Princess doll!
ReplyDeleteAhhh yes - but is it cheetah or leopard?!?! lol
DeleteMy youngest is 18 and I still have the poo-floaters issue. All the males in the household swear that they've flushed so heaven knows where the excreta comes from.
ReplyDeleteAnd I totally commiserate on having teenage males in the house. One day you're they're guiding light who has the answer to everything and the next you somehow become a blithering idiot who is only good for finding things that they've lost. Enjoy the next few years :)
