{thinking} that the weeks seem to fly by more and more quickly. Doesn’t seem two minutes since I was writing out the last snippets post.
{reading} Endgame: The Calling. (partial) review with giveaway to go up tomorrow. Make sure you hurry back.
{watching} Tron: Legacy (via Amazon Prime) and really rather regretting it. I usually quite like Jeff Bridges, but this was painful. And I only recognised Bruce Boxleitner by his voice. The soundtrack was intrusive (Tim said he would have used the word annoying) and the whole thing just felt utterly implausible. Wreck It Ralph did it better.
{getting} distracted. I have the attention span of a drunk goldfish. Ooh look, shiny! What was I saying? Honestly, I started this post 20 minutes ago. Then I went to look up Bruce Boxleitner, got distracted by twitter, read an article on Tron 3 and completely forgot I was writing this. Hopeless. I can’t focus on anything at the moment.
{running} did a decent run this morning. And really dropping carbs but increasing protein has kickstarted my weight loss again. I have felt hungry a couple of times, but I’d rather that than the constant bloated feeling I had before. And if I’m hungry I have a drink or some fruit and it stops. The bloated thing wasn’t wearing off at all. I wonder if there are some metabolic changes that could be kicking in? Odd, whatever it is.
{savouring} the end of breastfeeding. Smallest is coming up 5. Given that I fed her through Tigerboy’s pregnancy and tandemed for a short while, that means I’ve been feeding for nearly 5 years straight. I *will* miss that lovely snuggly closeness, but only a little bit. And I will very much miss the baby years, as that’s it, we’re done, but I don’t miss pregnancy at all.
{still} slowly decluttering. I have made a difference, but it’s such slow going. Slow and steady and try not to let it slip back, that’s the idea.

Snapshots
Big is off without us (but with a guardian!) scaring at Scaresville, hopefully having a wonderful time and not getting too cold or wet. Shades of a rapidly approaching future as she spreads her wings. Small and I have come to an accommodation about his education, which means he’s spent the last couple of days learning physics. Knows lots about atoms now, which is probably good. Still working on getting him programming. Smallest did baking this week – it didn’t work terribly well, but she was very good about it. Am trying to have something special to do with her each day. Tigerboy is pushing the boundaries of 2. And this week we were told that his speech is good enough he will be ceasing communication group in a couple of weeks.
Me? My 101 things isn’t really progressing terribly well, but I did manage to get out to Knit and Natter this week for the first time, so that was something. I picked up the tapestry crochet I started back in 2006 and managed a whole extra row (which is 190 stitches, so not actually to be sniffed at).
If you’d like to share your snippets, there will be a linky here very soon.
