My computer passed away a few days ago. It’s all come as a great shock to all those who knew and loved him. He never showed any signs of illness and while he was known to complain every now and again when I forgot to put him to bed, for the most part he was a tireless worker.
The house hasn’t been the same since. I’m not coping very well at all. It’s been a rough couple of days. I’ve actually had to do housework and laundry for goodness sake!
Vale Computer.

Here’s a sample of the phrases I find myself repeating to the boys ad infinitum these days:
a) The couch is ONLY FOR SITTING. It isn’t a place for jumping or standing and it’s most certainly not a place from which you can hurtle yourselves across the room!
b) Put your pants/nappy/shirt/socks back on.
c) No we cannot go to Naani’s house.
d) I love you guys!
e) Ok, you’re going to have to be quiet for a little while – I’m putting M to sleep now.
f) I said, “Quiet please.”
g) SHHH!
h) He isn’t going to go to sleep because he keeps hearing your voices. Please be quiet!
i) Ok well he isn’t sleeping, let’s all go to the spare room and play.
j) Choc chips are not breakfast food.
k) You can’t have choc chips for morning tea.
l) Ok ok! You can have choc chips for morning tea. *sigh*
