Good morning, folksies

Thanks to the cub celebrating his birthday, we got up a bit later to spend some time with him, so at least the Monday routine is more relaxed than usual.

He's such a sucker - fell for it that we bought him clothes as a present (his worst fear). He'll soon be pleasantly surprised.

Have a lekker day, Army!

Morning Tips and rest of Army

Parental-unit-bought clothes - and as a birthday prezzie, nogal - poor cub. I'm sure he'll enjoy the real prezzie.

Nice, overcast day here. I overslept badly - need a second alarm clock, other than the cell phone, that I actually have to get out of bed for to stop.



Have a good Monday, Army

Marnin' Tipps and Moon Unit! (Where did you get that expression, parental unit, Dreamy... have you got a bit of military background we don't know about?!) The boyfriend's brother calls his mother the "mom unit". They were raised Army Brats in Germany. If you bark a command at them they will snap too. ) It's fun!

Glad eldest cub got what he really wanted Tipps... which is? I thought it's all about NCY baseball hats and shite now... I am obviously way behind the tempus wot fujes! ;o) Long shorts?! )

Needing long shorts here... freezin! We're having one cold snap after another for the rest of the week. Me Ma will be delighted as there's nothing she would rather discuss than Global Warming. Why the feck is Global Warming so damn cold?!

I'm scarfing Carrs Table Water crackers with Kerrygold. For those of youz in the know, you'll understand that I'm gonna be fat on a snack. If it gets warm enough I'll take myself and the cholesterol to the gym.

In other news, starting to be productive in a money earning way today. I've been reduced to doing taxes for Big Jim (who is years behind) and it will be interesting to say the least. Remember the Pharmacy? Guess what... it finally took off. My own boyfriend is still chasing a pipe dream. What is it with the "get rich quick" mob? Anyway... Zenners will prolly be grand daddy'd in to the goings on at the Pharmacy after all that nonsense years ago.

In other news... I have to have an operation in 2 weeks... and after that I'm supposed to be learning the Pharmacy ropes. How many years did THAT take?

And in other other news, maybe your mate Reccy will come and post. He doesn't want to but I bet you anything he can be convinced. He is going to KEEL me! If he decides not to that is fine and all... but I am just worried that he has stayed away because of me. He's a really good mate... the best. )

Happy Monday and all that malarky...

Well... with you girls asking after him maybe he can't refuse! Amy is being trained at puppy classes, she's a bit of a handfull... collies you know. I like that in the cats (Hamish is a bugger!)... a bit of spirit... but they don't chew so bad. ) Hamish has wrecked a few things but Amy chews the knobs off Reccy's stove... hehe... she's taken things to a new level!

Is it the flu bug Mario, or are you still getting over the op?

Ach what the heck do I care? All righty... I had lipo done too... very pleased to have my muffin top gone in all honesty. ) Next op is a serious one though... it's not elective. I was gobsmacked at how Mario bounced back from that... it's actually quite invasive.
