kezia saw some pictures of snowmen on the internet and said she wanted
to take some, so she borrowed my camera to take some shots on the way
to the supermarket with jane
she spotted some fantastic ones
sadly we didn’t make any ourselves. but the girls spent most of the day ‘sledging’ which i suspect involved dragging each other on a piece of plastic over wet muddy grass.
i was working from home yesterday so didn’t even attempt to drive to work. instead i sat at my desk from 5am working. but i did go outside with esther and kezia at about 7.30 for a wander around the untouched snow
on the way back from church yesterday i spotted this barbie head in the street. we nearly ran over it, but we didn’t. however, it was in sight of our house so i went with the girls to check it out.
it was a well maintained barbie head. esther said she could tell it had been well looked after by the hair styling. she kept an eye on it all afternoon as it slowly made its way down the hill. she watched it through her binoculars from her bedroom window
i’ve been thinking why i like this little corner of my local tesco so much. it’s the chaos.
the thing i love about supermarkets in general is how they put all the stuff ‘together’ ie all the ketchups are in one area, fruit in another, an aisle of toilet rolls and so it goes. i love the repetition and the colours.
but i also love the unstructured corner that is the reduced goods area. it’s a real pick and mix (rip woolworths). and i guess in these crunchy days, shops are trying to sell every last thing rather than chucking stuff away, so this area has been packed to overflowing recently with busted packets and split multipacks.
kezia had her birthday party yesterday. quite loud at times, but generally excellent because some lady came in and did a couple of hours of activities. jane did the food and i just got in the way. like a proper dad should.
i spent most of yesterday looking at photos of BT tower for my course assignment. it’s made my eyes go all wonky, but if you want to see how far i’ve got you can see here. Unfortunately comments are broken on my course blog (which is one of the many reasons i’ve not moved funkypancake over to the same place yet)
great news by the way. found a fantastically reach seam of hassocks last week. both quality and quantity. should be enough to keep us going for another year !
fast dentures for fast talkers. or fast eaters. and duplicate dentures are lovely for his ‘n’ hers types.
this reminds me of one of my best/worst ever finds here from my teeth category. ah good times
i saw two signs that christmas was properly over last week. a santa hat in a bin, and a branch less tree wandering naked in to the street.
we’ve still got 6 christmas cards stuck to a door in our house, so it’s not quite all over for us yet
the great thing about this time of year is that it gets dark early so i’ve been able to grab some nice evening sunlight shots like these.
