The day after. The day before

Posted on May 15, 2009

Thanks for all the birth­day wishes. I had a really good mel­low birth­day– Vic and Byr­ney came over for some pizza and vino (none for preggo Byr­ney– wine that is, the pizza she was able to han­dle) and a nice chat on the sofa.  good.mellow.quiet.  

This after­noon I headed over to Head Over Heals.  I hadn’t been there in over 6 months but since I wanted to go to Uni­corn I thought I’d give it a try. I have tried to go a few time but the car park/parking lot is sooooo small that if I can’t find a park­ing space I end up leav­ing. I just kept think­ing it’s kind of crap so why stress out try­ing to find a spot.  Speak­ing of crap I must have said as much the last time I tried to go because when we pulled up Squidge says to me– ‘Antz in yer pantz is bet­ter mamma this one is crap’ LOL.  So I told her we were going to check it out to see if it was still crap. So a happy Squidge told me after­wards that it wasn’t crap any more.  Oooh yah my 3 yr old uses the word crap cor­rectly in a sen­tence.  A proud moment for this mama.  Now on to the many ways to use the f-bomb.  

Any­hoo back to HoH.  The last time I went they had just raised the price and the place was falling apart so I decided to give it a bit of a break.  I was pleas­antly sur­prised when I walked in there today. New paint job, the soft play area mats had been replaced/recovered and they have a ‘disco’!!  LOL they announced that tod­dler aer­o­bics was start­ing so I herded up Squidge and we climbed to the top of the ‘thingymabob’ to a plat­form that was cov­ered in can­vas.  It had a disco ball and every­thing!!! Squidge was in HOG HEAVEN PEOPLE HOOOOOOOOOOG HEAVEN.  Although I did bring my cam­era I didn’t take any pho­tos.  I mean how many times do you want to see Squidge slid­ing down a ‘super’ slide?!?!  

While there I did bump into a cou­ple of mums I met on Mon­day.  They were very nice and we chat­ted for a bit and they invited me to sit w/ them.  I did but felt like I was impos­ing.  I’m sure that is just my own hang up and if it’s not and I really am para­noid oh well. Which reminds me  I took a ‘quiz’ on Face­book to see which Friends char­ac­ter I am, turns out I’m ROSS!!  I’m shocked and amazed and well, dis­mayed but this highly sci­en­tific result.  ROSS!!!

So on to the day before– Wal comes back tomor­row.  Can I hear an AMEN peo­ple!!  Not that Squidge has been dif­fi­cult this week– she hasn’t.  It’s just 7 days on top of the pre­vi­ous week long trips has really worn me out.  I’ve men­tioned before that I don’t sleep well when he’s gone.  Every lit­tle bump and noise and I’m away think­ing some­one is kick­ing in my door again. The ratio­nal park of me thinks that my lit­tle old VW is older now and there are newer cars on my road and they’ll try to steal those first  and and and… but in the mid­dle of the night it’s dif­fi­cult to lis­ten to your head and just sleep.

All the Love in the Uni­verse, Ross Lindy
