Have I told you about Loulou?

Filed Under random | Leave a Comment

Loulou is my dog that I don’t own yet. I have never seen Loulou but I know that she is a tiny, fluffy, black Pomeranian. I’m not sure when Loulou will be joining the mummified household but it will probably be when the mummified kids are starting to move out because I don’t think this house can handle an inside doggie diva LOL

I’ve already been checking out pet beds and collars and everything that a spoiled-rotten doggie diva needs, including a Paris Hilton-inspired doggie handbag!

The husband isn’t too keen about Loulou joining us, even though it’s not going to be for a few years! So I figure I have enough time to work on him…LOL

Eating my emotions

Filed Under health/wellbeing | 2 Comments

I eat my emotions.

When I’m bored, I eat. When I’m angry, I eat. When I’m depressed, I eat. I don’t think I’m a naturally motivated person. I really need to psych myself up to do certain things that I don’t want to do. I have to remind myself what will happen if I don’t do it, and what will happen if I do.

It’s a pity I’m not one of those women that go beserk and clean or fix everything in their path. If I was THAT kind of woman, I would be thin, my house would be spotless and the door hardware wouldn’t be falling off in the hallway right now!

How do you deal with your emotions?

Warm me up!

Filed Under random | Leave a Comment

It would be so nice if the auto air conditioning actually warmed up the car when we first get in it instead of just starting to heat up as I’m pulling back into our driveway after the trip!

I had to dash down to the supermarket last night because we were almost out of milk. It was cold and raining so I quickly jumped in the car, turned it on, turned the air conditioning on, trying to keep warm. The silly thing takes so long to start blowing warm air!

Silly car!

Wanna live in a warehouse

I’ve always had this thing for warehouses done up as homes. I would love to rent or buy a warehouse and renovate it in "our style". I often check out the local commercial real estate to see what is available and whether permission would be granted to turn into a residence.

I don’t know how the kids would handle living in a place that is all open with no walls inside, but I know that I would love the open space. No more feeling claustrophobic between four walls.

Could you live in a warehouse?

Neither Bold nor Beautiful

Filed Under entertainment, random | Leave a Comment

It’s not often that I sit and watch a whole tv show but the one show that I do try to make time for is The Bold and Beautiful. Laugh if you like, but it does happen to be my favourite soapie and when 4.30pm comes round on weekdays, you can usually hear one of the kids calling out, "Mum, your show’s coming on!" LOL

It’s almost become an unspoken rule that when B&B is on, mama is not to be disturbed which is fine by me…lol

I would love to find out how I can wake up with my hair all perfect and my makeup still on my face and not on my pillow! I also want to know what kind of air tools the soapie actors use to blow away their wrinkles and crows feet!

Although I can do without the who is sleeping with who now, and who’s trying to kill who…..but then again, the who’s trying to kill who could be referred to my extended family!

Ah, who needs the soapies when the dramas in your own family make better story lines!

Hairy ice cream, anyone?

When I’m not looking for a hair elastic, you can be sure that there will be hundreds lots very visible, like hanging on the door handles of the bedroom doors or over the bathroom faucets or just "put away" on the floor.

But when I need one desperately because my hair keeps getting in my bowl of ice cream (oops, wasn’t going to reveal why I needed one), do you think I can find one?!

Seriously, I need to buy a safe or something! LOL

Someone’s in trouble!

Lazy Town is an educational program that teaches kids to

I could have blogged on my "mommy blog" about how Lazy Town teaches kids about healthy eating and being active and while that is true, I’m more interested in..ummm….getting my daily piece of eye candy each morning…LOL

150px-Lazytown_sportacus Have you SEEN Sportacus?! I’m trying to type this while Lazy Town is still on the tv and I keep getting distracted. Someone pass the tissues. I think I just drooled on my laptop.

I mentioned on twitter if it was weird that I had a crush on Sporticus only to find that there are other dirty moms out there who make their kids sit and watch the show so they can get their perve the kids can learn about healthy eat……..oh, who are you trying to kid?? ;P

What does one do when one has a (now) not so secret crush? One googles the "crushee" and learns that Sporticus is also known as Magnus Scheving.

I wanted to make this post informative but I’m having trouble being articulate with these pictures in my face…lol

Sailor Mur wrote a post that explains exactly how I feel about this important topic….lol

Wonder how long I can convince the baby to watch Lazy Town?

forgive me for being a pain in the A$$

This blog template is really not working for me - no offence to the designer.

So please bear with me while I install a new theme.

Thanks for being patient!

UPDATE: OK, I’m liking this theme but it needs some tweaking to make it "mine". But it’s getting late here and the screen is starting to look blurry…lol…so I’ll have to finish this tomorrow.

It’s all you need

There is nothing that a bottle of Windex, or a roll of Gaffa tape, or a can of WD-40 or a pair of box cutters can’t fix!

Just ask my DH…he’ll tell you!

I asked for my hall cupboard door to be fixed because it wasn’t closing properly and it seemed to be one of those days when his heart just wasn’t in it and I saw him fixing it with tools that I wouldn’t have chosen for that particular job.

But it’s fixed, so I guess I’ll just thank my lucky stars that nothing is being held together with Gaffa tape today.
