Rain on my parade
I was presented with the rare possibility to have the most excellent weekend ever. I was going to be having the house entirely to myself for two full days. Bliss.
The possibilities of what I could have gotten up to were endless. I tell you. My mind was whirling , abuzz with excitement at the mere thought.
But my anticipation of sheer bliss was destroyed, taken from me, obliterated.
6 words.
Small child. Tummy bug. Big mess.
Not only were my romantic notions of fun and freedom dashed, I was dashing. For towels, bowls, face cloths, hair ties, water, you name it and I was running for it.
Theres nothing that makes a parent run so fast as a child hollering those dreaded words, I’m gona puke. Our legs and arms suddenly move with the speed of superman proportions, and not for the intention of rescuing a maiden in distress. But to save the couch, the carpet, and all other household objects that could be projectiled upon.
Needless to say I had a very busy weekend indeed. Not exactly how I would have liked, but at least I can honestly say that I did some running. I certainly did a ton of washing. But it wasn’t all bad, I did get some rays of oh so good sunshine on my lilly whites.
That was during the moments or sleep deprivation when mummy lay down on the floor in dire need of coffee.
Romantic notions. Are they just a dream?


I would just like to point out that the top 6 are all by the same person..Hello? Does anyone ELSE do any work round here?
Hahaha YES but as you pointed out so many times before, I’m the geek of the pair… I’ve just put up a post now but I’ve also improved the interface so even you can upload and use your own photos in your journal entires, m’dear! I’m also about to unleash some BOLD ITALIC and UNDERLINE buttons to help spice up your posts
Part of the whole “rebranding” process of TGM… gotta start somewhere.
OMG, is it true? Mr Ed wants more spice?
Excellent.
You want pics like my child spewing, ridiculous bras, and my feet up on your desk while I drink your beer?
I must point out that we have a combined effort of 34 posts this month by way of journal entry alone, and the month is not over yet. Fantastic!
Proud to be on team TGM.
I think we need team t-shirts. Yeah. Teflon ones, so kid vomit rolls off.
Oh btw… Are you still a bit artsy fartsy? We need a new logo/look/feel.
new logo/look/feel?
I have ideas, will email you.
We need to find a comic sketch artist, so if anyone knows someone who can draw caricatures, please let us know.
