Milestone

Yesterday Zoey read her first couple words all by herself! Cat, dog, fish … I’m so proud of her smarts. :)

Just an observation

Cookies bought with money never, ever taste as good as homemade.

Me at this moment. The time is 10:05 p.m.:

  • Sitting at the dining table with a daunting basket of clean, but unfolded, laundry.
  • The whir of the Keurig as it brews me a lovely cup of English Breakfast Tea.
  • A bang from upstairs and a cry from Zoey. Wayne took her up there a bit ago to put her to bed.
  • More bangs. This time his crutches. Wondering if I should step in. Bang. Whir. Crash. Silence.
  • Whirring stops with a sputter. Still sitting. Let her Dad handle it.
  • Tea is ready.

I think laundry can wait a while. Perhaps I’ll find me some monster-killing music and play some World of Warcraft. Yes, I do that now. Don’t worry – it’s just the Starter Edition.

Long time no see

I’m thinking about getting back into the blog thing. For me, not for you. Not that there are many readers nowadays. This post may have set off a few Google Buzz feeds back in the day, but since Buzz is gone … I don’t see how anyone will bother coming around. Unless they find me via Googling a mutual relative. I get more visits from the family tree than anything. I don’t mind a bit. This has always been a small, personal project. Hence back to blogging – for me.

I’ll try to talk about more than mommyhood. Pinky swear. I’ll start with a snapshot, eh? On to the next post!

Big update

Broke my images. I have a sneaking suspicion I deleted the uploaded files along with the WordPress ones when I updated. Argh. Will fix later.
