Holidays

27 Nov

I can’t believe it’s almost Thanksgiving.  Not that we celebrate Thanksgiving over here, but I still do.  I don’t make a turkey because they are pretty expensive to get a whole bird and they always end up being pretty dry anyway.  I just get a chicken and roast it instead.  Chicken goes just fine with cranberry sauce and I’ve perfected the art of roasting a chicken.  It’s only taken me about 5 years.

Pumpkin pie will be made from scratch (as in no can of pumpkin, they don’t sell that here), with a wholemeal pie crust.  Yum….drooling already.  I do love me some pumpkin pie.

You’d think I now have plenty of time for relaxing, reading, and writing blogs now that I’m finished with university for the year, but I always manage to find plenty of work to do.  Thursday I cleaned out our room, mowed the lawn, mulched some pot plants, and cleaned the toilet, in addition to about 12 other things on my self made to do list for the day.  Yesterday I cleaned out the spare room wrapped all the Christmas presents I have so far, and finished some other secret Christmas business that I can’t tell you about because the recipients read my blog.

I have grand plans to finish my book this summer too, but as yet, I haven’t even looked at it.  I’ve only been working on it since I was pregnant with Daniel.  It is, after all, a pregnancy book.  It’s written, I’m just in the editing and illustration stages, which also take a lot of time.

One day I’ll get there.  One day it will be totally finished and I can put it on Amazon as an ebook.

Anyway, it’s 6am, which means the kids will be bounding out of their room any second, wanting cuddles, gummy vitamins, and breakfast.

If I won a groupon voucher

26 Jul

Groupon is having a blogger competition to win a $500 Groupon voucher. I just have to tell them, in all my creativity, what I’d use the voucher for. Fictitious or not.

So…This is a no brainer.

I’M SICK OF POOP!!!!!!!!!!!!  You all know of my struggles with potty training. Hannah pooping on her foot. Constantly pooping in her underpants, but refusing to wear a nappy. Ugh. The list goes on. Torture.

I would use every last cent of that voucher to pay a potty training guru to come to my house and train my daughter. Said guru would clean up every poo that got smushed all over Hannah’s underpants. Guru would wipe all the poo off of Hannah’s legs and butt. She would scrub the poopy underpants clean. Heck, she would even clean all the poopy underpants that I have soaking in a bucket of nappy san in the laundry room that I have been avoiding for a week. Disgusting I know, but I hate dealing with it.

Guru would lovingly (and quickly) teach Hannah to poop in that lovely big girl toilet instead of her underwear. And it wouldn’t take long, she’s a guru.

And what would I be doing whilst guru fixed poopy messes? Eating cake and drinking hot chocolate while I watched the chaos, delighted that it wasn’t me dealing with it.

If only. Sigh.
