Took a while to get her up this morning, but I finally got oldest daughter to her first day of school. She handled it ok I guess.

First Day
Category Archives: The short of it
Short posts. Sort of like status updates.
Itch.
Today, a mosquito bit me on the oedema.
Just. can’t. quite. reach…
Autowash
I know handwashing uses less water, and also costs less. But there’s just something so futuristic about the Autowash that I find completely compelling.
Plus it gives me the opportunity to wear my Leeloo wig.
Raspberry Leaf Tea
Was going to draw a picture of how Raspberry Leaf tea tastes, but I just couldn’t get the scrunched up ‘lemon’ face right. So here is a picture of me eating fudge instead.
In all honesty, I think an infusion made from the cardboard packet would have tasted nicer than the tea itself.
32 Weeks
I am presently 32 weeks pregnant. My blood pressure is 90/40. Which means in this heat I am pretty much incapable of standing up. I can make an attempt, but it invariably turns into a pratfall. Feeling pretty pregnant right about now.
I should probably also be wearing a seat belt, just in case.
Hot Day
Today is 41 degrees Celsius… that’s about 106F. I’m too hot to add anything witty to that.
Toys
Given the rapidity with which it dries out in this weather, plus the time over heat required to replace the dry stuff, I’m thinking from now on, playdough is a winter sport.
NYE
Happy New Year everyone! To celebrate, here is my favourite haiku ever:
Year’s end, all
corners of this
floating world, swept.
(Basho)
And a picture of what I hope your NYE might look like.
Giant floating wax lips optional.
Xmas Budget
Back home at last! Now to begin calculamenting my post-Xmas finances.
Well, dang.
Holidays
I am now on holidays, away from my usual computer, so the doodles will be sporadic, as well as clunky. Had to draw these with the track pad. Let me assure you, that is even harder than it sounds. Will be too busy on Xmas day doing the whole Xmas thing… so here is an amalgamation image based on possible projections of my next few days. You have no idea how much I had to simplify this to retain clarity.
Which coincidentally sums up my whole year.
Merry Christmas everyone!
