Hubbie’s vacation from work is almost at an end. He goes back to work tomorrow. He’s enjoyed his time off. It’s like using spa filters on his brain. He’s needed to cleanse from the stressful things that have been going on. The job itself he enjoys but as with any job there’s always a lot [...]

I’m approaching my birthday. It’s in four days. This is my physical birthday. The one that is properly celebrated. Given I consider my birthday is June 21st for example, and Jared and J.C. claim October 7th. So, we celebrate our physical entry into the world, of course, on the day that it actually happened. Still [...]

Today marks the first anniversary of my arrival in the body. I had remembered earlier in the week and then forgotten again. I was browsing through all the spam in my inbox this morning. Past the offers for acnepril reviews and offers for viagra and cialis, and there was a note in there from Facebook [...]

Two days in a row I’m up before the munchkin, wonders will never case. Yesterday it wasn’t too much before he was, but today I’ve been up 35 minutes so far and still no sign; but then we were out at a friend’s house fairly late, and he was awake the whole time because he [...]

We had a fun afternoon and evening yesterday. We went to a friend’s house I was a bit nervous because there were a few people over there who there’ve been issues with in the past, and while the fences have been patched and mended things are still being nervously tested lest the whole structure collapse.

Today is my son’s fourth birthday. It’s so strange to think that we’ve survived four years together. That he’s doing so well considering he’s so very precocious. I was in the middle of trying to deliver him this time four years ago. We’d just about decided that we were going to give up. All I [...]

We have several birthdays coming up: my best friend in England, my Mum and my father-in-law. Each of them have varying tastes. Mum is into Nascar and several other sports that I don’t understand or enjoy but she already has more than enough Nascar jackets and other things like that. With my father-in-law it’s often [...]

I’ll write something of more substance later, but I hope that everyone who celebrates Thanksgiving today is having a good one, and spending time with family and friends that they are truly thankful for. I’m thankful for babysitting! Because I have to be at work soon and most of my relatives are out of the [...]

On Sunday Mum took the munchkin and I to Lady of the Lakes Renaissance Faire. It’s the first time since 2005 that I’ve been to the Ren Faire and it was a lot of fun, and the munchkin really enjoyed himself. The maypole guarded the entrance and when we walked in we were invited to [...]

Last night we went to the a Haunted Swamp at the Enzian in Maitland. It’s actually the first time since I was a small child I’ve been to a really big Halloween bash and it was a lot of fun, despite my getting sick towards the end of the evening. They had a lot of [...]
