Happy Wednesday
Boolings! It’s only 30 days until the December holidays. It’s that laaaaast
streeeeeeetch of the year that leaves you feeling exhausted and overwhelmed and
excited all at once. Fact: It’s 40 days
till Christmas, and there are only 47 days left of 2012.
That thought
undoubtedly triggered panic like nothing else on earth can. To help distract
you from the thought, here are some things which have kept me from the
deep(est) end in the last week:
* The number one thing that made me grin
in the last 7 days?
SEBASTIAN!
We got to meet him on Saturday evening, and all I can say
is SQUEEEEEEE!!! I was, of course, a
little nervous about meeting the little sproggen, because, well… I’m a freak.
But it all went well! Lucky for me, he’s already inflated and isn’t bug-eyed,
so I wasn’t squicked out. The girls were having a good giggle, expecting that I
would run a mile at the first opportunity, but when La gave him to me, I just…
kinda… melted. So, I consider Session
1 of the Newborn Exposure Therapy Course a success!
* My sister-from-another-mister (aka: my
sister-in-law) had her baby shower on Saturday, which was fabulous! There were
games like ‘My Water Broke’, which involved little dolls in blocks of ice, and
any method possible to melt said ice, and the-right-and-left game. Awesomeness
all round. Really looking forward to Pumpkin’s arrival.
* Lazy Sundays spent mainly in bed, book
in one hand, snacks in the other. Nothing better than that, is there?
* Rediscovering how good turquoise makes
me feel...

| and look? |
* Impromptu dinner with Magical Trevor
* Amazing art:
* Finding humour in tough situations
* Sort of deciding that Grinchy
inclinations are not all that fun, and leaning more toward festive feelings for
December. Hmm… Maybe the world is
going to end, after all?!
* “Death will tremble to take us”
– Charles Bukowski
– Charles Bukowski
* Whose Line Is It Anyway clips to
brighten up rough days
* Knowing that I’m not going to have to deal
with too much December shopping-mall-madness, because, well… you’ll see. *naughty
grin*
The Little Things:
*
Mer-zombies * Christmas
planning *
Nick Cave. Eternally. But especially now. * Do nothing for 2 minutes * Marc
Jacobs Daisy. Christmas always comes early from one of our suppliers, and it’s
always a diviiiiiine perfume that I’ve coveted for ages. Yay! *
I hope you all have a wonderful week, Boolings! We'll regroup here next week and catch up, yes?
