It was only after I'd commented that I had another look and realised it wasn't your dog but a much smaller one. I had been too beguiled by the cute costume to look properly. Cookie is probably wise to put her paw down at costumes.
I have just spent a confusing time reading what sounds go with with which spellings. LL trying to say 'long' out of only the right side of my mouth with my tongue in the L position but blocking the left side of my mouth. Llong = Boat in Welch. *head desk*
Yesterday I threw a paragraph at a student, first sentence was in Spanish and the second in French. Kid blinked. I blinked. The transistion was flawless and I didn't even know I'd done it until after it came out of my mouth. Kid knew I'd switched languages before I did and knew which I'd done it in. Smart kid, English speaker in this case.
I'm language resistant but have to try or never get anywhere with the non-English speaking kids. My bad sentences will make the kids more confident to try and probably fail but still try. I keep telling myself that.
Yes I was with you last year *huge sigh* Was it just last year? *sigh* It seems like only yesterday, only a lifetime away *sigh* *sigh* Strange feeling, you know what I mean? *wibbly lip*
I remember a wonderfully welcoming Meep with a wonderfully welcoming house, a wonderful couch where I slept warm nights, sloppy baths by pup *giggles* and swishing tails with a glaring look as if to say 'you better make my slave happy'. And lets not forget the coffee *drools* and wonderful entertainment *sigh* Ah those walks and visits and walks and and and *sigh*
Hubby: why are you sighing so much? Sas: I was with Meep last year *sniffles*
*Cuddly cuddles*
He's better. Still a bit shaken by it all, but physically he's totally well. On the emotional mend, so to speak. Hence the sleepy times this afternoon. We'll try going to school tomorrow *sigh*
I was in Wales just a year ago *sigh* I miss you! *Cuddles* *hugs*

Knitted dragony dog is too cute - nice and warm too, I imagine.

That is one very docile dog, I'd have to sedate mine to get her in a costume!

Love the word that came up for the Welch. Cymry. Evocative.

*giggle* I'm grinning at the thought of you trying to pronounce it ;)

*homesick sigh* Is it even possible to be homesick for a place I just was once? But well, it truly felt like home. You were there! *sigh*
*shouts upstairs* Lads, when is that space-continuum bending machine ready??? I think Primus has homework or something *shakes head* *sigh*
I think I'm gonna cuddle my own mending cuddly in an attempt to stave of homesickness for Wales (and a few certain inhabitants).

News: Prince Charles and Camilla were in Cardiff...
Meep: But what about Saskia? Saskia was here last year.
Mr Meep: St David's day today
Meep: Saskia was here last year, you know *pout*
Meep: Pouty look at sofa and to dog, remember when Saskia was here last year
*sigh* you made an impression. Ratbag just strolled off outside with a twitching tail, I think he was trying a Saskia-hunt!
How is he now? Any better :(
