Day 128: Things I Like

 

#1.

I have always been fascinated by Gargoyles. More the ones that look like this (demon/monster like). At one point in time, I had a collection of them, but sadly I haven't got them anymore. I gave them to a new home when I separated from my ex-husband. Even though I know it's not true. I'm one of those people that always hope they come alive at night and turn back to stone each morning with the rising of the sun

#2- # 6

These are just animals I have always loved.

Until tomorrow, remember: Just because it's dangerous, doesn't mean it isn't still beautiful.

Day 127: Grocery #2

 

Today we are picking up all the stuff we forgot to get yesterday, but at least today, we don't have any kids, because they are all at school/kindy.

I also want to catch up on the washing, before we get a backlog of it again. I want to mop the floor as well. Luckily, I remembered to buy the floor washing stuff.

In my down time, I'm watching Maine Cabin Masters. Not sure what I'll watch next.

Until tomorrow, remember: Take the time and do it right.

Day 126: Needle Day & More

Today I am:

1) Put the bins out.

2) Getting my flu shot.

3) Doing grocery shopping.

4) Ordering my new bed frame.

5) Getting the hinge off the kitchen cupboard.

Until tomorrow remember: It's easier just to do it.

 

 

Day 125: Insomnia

 

3am is when I finally got to sleep this morning; and I had to be up by 5am. I couldn't have slept in, because my cat Robson is a shithead who will literally come and wake me up for his breakfast and to be let outside for the day... and then Nana (mum) and the kids are up and I had to start on breakfasts... didn't help that the toaster decided to up and die on us... had to go to Aldi and buy a new one.

So, because of the lack of sleep. I have woken up with a massive headache. I'm not going to nap today, or I won't be able to sleep tonight. I think I will read through some synopsis that I found. I'll see if they are any good and worth keeping, or if I should trash them now.

I need to write out the shopping list today... but first I want to go through the pantry so I'm not buying double ups of everything. or else they run out of date before we use them.

Until tomorrow, remember: Think smarter not harder

Day 124: Public Holiday (May Day)

 

The kids are home today so you guessed it there is arguing galore happening. Graceful has decided to hide out in her room to keep out of Hurricane and Monsoon's line of sight. I wish I could do that. Sadly, I still had to get up and do stuff to keep the house running.

The girls helped their mum cook cupcakes today. So, the house smells sickly sweet. they are going to love them. Well, graceful will. The other two don't really eat cake. they are more your chocolate and chips kind of snackers.

It has been raining on and off all day today. A real crap day for washing. We still did two loads; thank God that we have clothes airers and can hang everything under cover... Sure, we could use the dryer, but by using the airers, I don't have to pay for the power usage; and I think the clothes smell better when they are air dried. Plus, we have a patio where we can set up the airers, and if it rains too much, we can always bring them inside.

I have a headache today. I have set aside time to give myself a haircut. Seeing as I shave my head, it's easy enough to do myself.

Until tomorrow, remember: It's never a bad day to have a Star Wars marathon. 

Day 123: Soundtrack Sunday

 

Until tomorrow, remember:

Music can alleviate the sorrow in your life.

Day 122: All The Pretty Things

 

Today I am trying to get all the loose stuff put away. I'm tired of looking at it and tripping over it. I've decided to pick up all the kids' stuff and put it into garbage bags, and if they don't put it away after school than It'll either be tossed or donated.

I also want to try and get the kitchen under sink door put back on. I have to figure out how to get the hinge off without damaging the cupboard. Someone before we moved in had the bright idea to glue the hinge to the cupboard wall. Annoying as hell. because the glue us like freaking stone.

I also need to clean the fans, so they work better. Not that we are using them as much now as it is getting cooler in the evenings.

Until tomorrow, remember: Take the time to do it right, and you won't have to do it again.
