How have I been spending Mother's Day?
Well, sleeping in would have been nice.
But -
Woken at 8.30 by kids getting presents ready: not so good!
Presents: very good! (CD, writing paper, craft things, purple singlet-top, chocolates!)
Breakfast: pikelets (mini-pancakes) with butter and golden syrup (liquid sugar)
Argument between N1D and N2D at the table: not so good.
Chores: not great, but essential, dammit.
Online time: Excellent!
Yahoo e-mail being a bastard: ASSHOLES! I can see my e-mail, but I cannot read it. How's that for wonderful? Anyone else experiencing such joy this weekend? I'm hoping it's just yahoo-au, and not the whole world as at least one other person told me their's is okay. I just hope it's not my damned computer playing up again... *sigh*
The rest of the day: bugger all, probably, as Hubby's cooking dinner (yay!) and it's too cold to care about doing lots. The kids have just put "The Triplets of Belleville" on again. If you've never watched this, you should! We watched it yesterday and it's a great little cartoon with virtually no speaking except in French occasionally. Some most amusing things, and it's very stylishly made. Suitable for the whole family (and you don't often get that recommendation here!)... if you don't mind a dancing woman with her tits out for about 2 minutes (and it is a cartoon).
Watched FOUR episodes of series one of SG-1 last night! It's all green_grrl's fault. But it is fun *grin*. Looks like I'm going to have to keep going. kaige68 keeps talking about S6...
Oh, and before I forget (mind you, I missed a lot more than I ever remember), yesterday was niceandfluffy's birthday! HAPPY (belated)BIRTHDAY, chook!
