for no apparent reason.
I have just screamed at Small for pulling down yet another item that I had just picked up. He is at that can it be picked up and thrown stage, and so far today, has destroyed a board game (just a freebie, but still unnecessary destruction), broken a china napkin ring (I have no napkins, *why* have I got napkin rings? Oh well, one less thing to put away) and pulled everything down off the table (which annoyed me greatly as I spent about 20 minutes yesterday tidying and sorting all the stuff that had accumulated on the floor under the table.
Right, I’m going to make them lunch, and while they are lunching go and grab a quick shower and hope I can recover the day. Wish me luck – they are fighting in the kitchen as I type this 🙁
Oh, and on another note, I got a newsletter from Schnews this morning, all about how we are rapidly running out of oil, and when we do we are all going to die horribly. Well, I think that was what it said. Am I alone in thinking that this way of spreading the news doesn’t work terribly well? All it has done is depress me, probably leading in part to my foul mood, as I feel guilty for switching the washing machine on and running hot water to wash up. I’m still going to go and have a power shower though. Back to the newsletter, it doesn’t offer any way forward, and that’s what makes me think it isn’t terribly successful, you can’t just tell ppl they are getting it all wrong without offering any alternatives, it’s just too depressing to think about, so ppl won’t. There’s my point of view anyway, and I’m unsubscribing from that newsletter now.

Could be the ‘close’ weather we’re having at the moment. Makes me crabby any way 😉
Hope your day improves. We won’t die without oil! I’m sure alternatives will be found and duly profited from, as soon as the revenue from oil starts to dry up.

(((Jax)))) – how’s your afternoon going?
very very slowly. I take it you’ve seen my incredibly badly phrased and slightly incoherent outing on the Heschat list? I think I’ll think about that some more and maybe blog it later…Small has discovered violence and is taking to it with relish, bit me last night and has just bitten Big. And I’ve just hung the washing out in the rain. Sigh.
FWIW, although I don’t entirely agree with you, that Bev woman was being a patronising prat.
Sorry about the rain, it’s hot hot hot here!
yeah, me too, she was!
