The boys’ behaviour was diabolical yesterday, absolutely dia-bloody-bolical. I was sorely tempted to bang their heads together and then go and rip out my own spleen with a spanner.
I had promised them karaoke in the afternoon after I got some stuff done around the house, stuff they were more than welcome to actually HELP [...]

Really Misbehaving!

Freak Out!
Had a freak out at ticket agent woman, who said I could pay by credit card for my tix then directed me to an online payment gizzmo that wanted my password. All’s well that ends well but meanwhile I was on the phone for 90 minutes trying to get a password from the bank.
Those ‘push [...]

The Sun’s Deceit.
Somehow yesterday’s plan morphed into going to the amusement park on top of the mountain.
This even appealed to Sunshine who had steadfastly refused to get out of bed for anything involving physical exercise.
Even when I pleaded and said that doing stuff as ‘ a family’ was important. Actually, especially when I stressed the importance of [...]

Oh Happy Day!
Sunday, a sunny sunny Sunday.
What shall we do? The vote lays with the chicklets.
We can drive for 2 hours to Kansai Cycling Centre where we can play all day on different types of funky bikes, or we can go up the mountain and do the ‘athletic’ army assault course through the forest.
Either way, it’s [...]

The Missing
I think I have mentioned before that I tend to get a bit obsessive about certain topics. The plane crash in the Andes is one, Everest is another, missing kids is a third.
I think it started with Steven Stayner, the American boy who was abducted and came back 7 years later.
I had a paper round [...]

Drought!
Sometimes I think it’s better to post *something* just to keep my hand in.
Kids had their last day of school for this school year, today. I LOVE it, the holiday is not too long that I have to body slam them off the balcony, but long enough for us to relax, maybe go to the [...]

Nothing Happening Here.
It was a holiday yesterday. I can’t even remember what for, oh I do, Spring Equinox.
I went for a very long walk with my friend, observing Spring emerging everywhere.
After that I did twaddle.
Oh I lie, I played The Times Online Spelling Bee.
I was once very good at spelling, what I lacked in [...]

The Slender Shaper.
The Slender Shaper has been around for at least a couple of years that I have seen.
It’s a weight loss gadget thingy that is so fantastic if you put it on for just a few minutes a day you’ll be astounded by the results. You too can transform yourself from a sagging old aba-chan into [...]

What the Cool and Hip are Wearing in Downtown Nara.
So that’s my girl, the fashion plate!
the second picture is my friend, a beloved friend, a cherished friend, who has not given me permission to post it, so if it suddenly disappears, if in fact I never blog again, you’ll know, he didn’t appreciate me posting this and has felt the need to end my [...]
