Agreed!!
Humanoid ‘ish’
Here you will find ‘Life Update’ style posts and other random word vomit from my brain.
Shopping Sadness
I ducked up the street to grab a few groceries while my hubby was on his lunch break so I could leave my son at home. I’ve decided I’d prefer to take him, I feel rather lonely walking around the super market without his smiling face looking back at me and at least when my sons with me I can talk out loud without looking strange, because people just think I’m talking to him.
Feeling Guilty
I find it hard to relax when I have things to do, house work, feed the kiddlet, play with the kiddlet, more house work, paid job work. I feel guilty sitting down reading when there are things to be done and there is always ALWAYS things to be done. All I want for Christmas is a sleep-in and a relaxing day reading preferably by a nice pool – is that too much to ask?
Kiddlets
Kiddlets is a word I use instead of children, a cross between Kids and Piglets. Example – yeah Riley’s good, how are your kiddlets.
It’s always been a me sort of word but when I yelled out to my husband tonight ‘have you got everything’
as we where leaving to go out out he replied
‘everything but the kiddlet’
I laughed to myself, after being together for eight years the only word he has inherited from me is kiddlets.
He doesn’t use my ‘Pudding’ which I use for a variety of things or wombat, which I’ve been calling my son since I found out I was pregnant. Oh I could go on and on with my word substitutes. It’s kiddlets that’s crossed over, must be my most ‘normal’ substitute LOL Made me laugh.
Dark Cloud
Dark cloud over my head
Wish I could lift it
Think I’ll just cry instead
Weekly Photo Challenge: Grand
This is a photo I took of a GRAND old rock on a GRAND adventure my husband, I and two of our friends had together back in 2010.
There was Four of us on Two Motor Bikes. We road through New South Wales, Victoria, South Australia the Northern Territory and Queensland! over the month June.
Yes our butts were sore, but the open road and the spectacular Australian landscape was well worth it. So many memories that will stay with me for a life time.
Books I’ve Read Recently
I’ve decided to create a section on my blog ‘’Books I’ve read recently’’ dedicated to the books I read.
I love to read, but can never seem to find the time, especially now with being back a work part time and a mum to a five month old.
I am really bad at time delegation at home, fine at work, but I get home and all my plans go to shit.
So if you’re interested in any of the books below, stick around. If you’ve read any of them and would care to give me your thoughts on them that would be great, leave me a comment or if you’ve got any books you really love and would like to share, I’d love to hear about them.
So the list of books I’m going to start with:
“Second Son” a Jack Reacher short story – Lee Child
Albert of Adelaide – Howard L Anderson (reading this again because it’s awesome!)
Pet Rescue’s Amazing Dog Stories
Bad Luck and Trouble (11th of 18 Reacher Novels) – Lee Child
Mop Stroud, A life in two acts with many scenes – Betty Stroud
Shadows of The Realm, Book 1 of the circle of Talia – Dionne Lister
A Time of Darkness, Book 2 of the circle of Talia – Dionne Lister (I’ve been holding off reading these two books as there’s a third on the way and I know once I’ve read the first two I’ll be hanging out for the third)
Close Call: A Doris and Jemma Vadgeventure – Eloise March
The Killing Floor (1st of 18 Reacher Novels) – Lee Child
Bitter Greens – Kate Forsyth
Die Trying (2nd of 18 Reacher Novels) – Lee Child
Initiate – Tara Maya (This is another long series, so I am scared I’ll fall in love and want them all)
The Salmon of Doubt – Douglas Adams
Casting Shadows Everywhere – L.T. Vargus
Pride & Prejudice – Jane Austen (Reading again >> before reading) >>
Mr Darcy’s Diary – Amanda Grange (and >>)
Longbourn – Jo Baker
Cloud Atlas – David Mitchell
Water for the elephants – Sara Gruen
Hmmmm does the randomness of the list say anything about me lol.
I’ve written these down now,
I’ve said I’ll read them,
So I have to,
Right?
YES RIGHT!!!
Give it a few weeks and the list will probably double, especially since I’ll still have another nine Reacher novels sitting on my book shelf waiting and another 75 eBooks on my tablet WAITING, as well as I really miss Ron, Hermione, Harry, Hagrid and Dobby and need to visit Hogwarts again soon.
Hang Onto You
I hang onto you
Hang onto what I know is true
Hang onto the girls we used to be
Hang onto the feeling
That with you
I’m free
Free to be myself
To heaven or hell
and stuck here on this earth
I’ll hang onto you
No matter how much it hurts
Over The Hill
Over the hill
and far away
We keep getting older
Everyday
All we ever want to do
Is go
Back
Back
Back
Instead we sit on our arses
Getting grey and fat
Michelle’s Weekly Pet Challenge
Michelle’s Weekly Pet Challenge (week 13)
My Ellie Girl doing what she loves, RUNNING!!!!!
Ellie is my three year old, very short Wolfhound cross, but you wouldn’t know she had any wolfhound in her looking at her. She is loving, playful and very energetic. She loves to play fetch in and out of the water, she loves cuddles and breaking into the house to find where the dog treats are hidden.
This is a photo I managed to snap of her with my phone as she was running back to me at our local dog park.
