A Minute for Madeleine.
Maybe, just maybe, the someone, who knows something, will see this as people post it on their blogs and sites everywhere.
Kids DO come back sometimes.

Someone knows something.

Arima Onsen.

Arima was wonderful. Up in the mountain, the air was cool, the views spectacular.
In another month it’ll be even lovelier when the momiji have all turned.
A lot of people are all about the onsen, tripping off to one every chance they get, but not us, maybe because we never have the time/money for it raising [...]

Sisters, There Were Never 2 Such Devoted Sisters.

I don’t have any sisters. Not real, grew up with sisters, but I do have friends in my life I feel are my sisters.
My Mum had 2 sisters, and later a sister-in-law and they were all so close, I envied it.
So I am so glad my gals are sisters, they’ll always have each others backs [...]

The One Where The Health Inspector Visits.

Dashing out the house yesterday, to spend the morning relieving myself of the stresses and strains of being so fab, two men were just coming in(to) the garden.
One introduced himself , said he was Mr Blue Mountain from the Dept of Health and his loyal sidekick was a vet, going in this incarnation, by [...]

John Travolta.

I’m really feeling for him right now. To have suffered the loss that he has and to then have to go into a court of law and talk about it, doesn’t bear thinking about.
That’s all.

The Death of Anticipation.

This joy has energised me to get things done this week. General cleaning up and rearranging, little jobs I have been putting off for the past decade or so, things, I have found, if I didn’t spend 6 hours a day reading other peoples’ brilliant blogs, I did, in fact, have time to do. I [...]

More Joy!

There’s been no mis-behaving, the house has been relatively tranquil this week, don’t know why.
Also I have dogged by inexplicable joy again, can’t shake it. It’s interfering with my bitching and moaning. Unfortunately I seem to not just be feeling this joy, but spreading the damn thing faster than ‘new-flu’.
The chicklets have been, dare [...]

Mini Update.

Suffice to say I have been a little distracted trying to get info about the Steiner school. Couldn’t get anyone on the phone, used The Man’s PC to fill out the reg form but it wouldn’t ’send’, getting more and more frustrated with things.
Mostly because I didn’t know if they accept students mid-way through the [...]

Missing Sunshine.

I did. I missed the girl something rotten while I was gone.
We could exchange emails, and we spoke on the phone a couple of times, but it felt like a really long time without her and with her starting her first ever job, it seemed like a huge step for her and I wasn’t around [...]

More on teenagers.

I was kept up until the wee hours by Feet and Sleuth. They regaled me with horror stories of life with teenage girls. I’m going to runaway now, take my darling boys and run.;)
