Please tell me I am not alone
in my moment of feeling like the worst parent on earth.
We brush teeth like everyone else but I am not been able to afford to take the kids for the 6 month checkups that they are supposed to have, if I am honest it has been a while since they have been to the dentist. But the week of Christmas Rachel complained of one molar being sore when it was brushed,...
Day 24 → Make a playlist to someone, and explain why you chose all the songs. (Just post the titles and artists and letter)
Dear Rachel
My spirited child I am blessed to have you, you challenge me in more ways than I thought possible. You are always determined to do things your way. I have no idea where you get that from. You have so much to learn and at times the task of helping you to reach become the wonderful free thinking individual soul that you are seems totally...
So he has a girlfriend!
It was Rachel’s birthday on Friday. I asked ex to please send her a card as I was supposed to get the gift for her. He was offshore and moaned he could not do it in time. But then the next time he phoned he told her he had posted her a card and she was so excited. No matter what happens between him and I and who thinks who is to blame or who feels...
Moving, many hands make lighter work
When I was growing up I only moved once when I was 5, the rest of my life we spent in one house and it was very stable. I went to one primary school and one high school. The first time I moved after that was when I went to university in Jhb. Since then I have moved a ridiculous number of times. Now when we move at the end of the month it will have been...
Life happens when you are making other plans
* so we are pregnant, the decision has all been made and pinkgeek baby is here to stay. I am going to be keeping most of the baby stuff on the Pinky and the Geek blog so pop over there from time to time to see what we are up to as we journey from to having our baby. Hopefully I can get Geek to also blog regularly and it should be cool to see our very...
Pinklets get a place in the cyber world
So I am a blogger and a home schooling mom. I do post stuff about my kids on my blog from time to time, but I thought maybe they needed their own space. The idea actually came when I wanted to print a Platypus project that we had been working on and I was struggling to get the printers working, without having to sell organs to afford the ink. I was... Phone pics
I was downloading the pics from my phone and thought I would share a few.
Becoming pink – I know I shared these on twitter as they happened but thought to put them here too
Roots growing out – time for a top up
bleach on
2-tone
Dye on, time for coffee and to read my book for an hour
All done
Yesterday the kids were getting a bit of...
Pretoria
It might seem odd that I am blogging about Pretoria when I just got to Cape Town but I had meant to do it before I left, and then things just got to hectic. We are here, and we are settling in well, but I will tell you all about that in another post. This one is all the things I love about Pretoria, I have counted this city as my home since I was 5 and I...
Black and white – it is easier when you are 5
I am dating someone else, there I said it. Phew. If I have learned anything it is that life does not come in nicely tidy boxes, it happens in total chaos and sometimes the timing could not look worse. I have not known how to write this blog, how not to be the badie, but maybe I am. But I can not longer not blog about it, this is my space, I have always said...
The things Caleb says
Caleb is now 2½ and says and does the funniest things so I thought I would share a few
- My mom took him to the toilet and he said to her : “This penis is not working, I need to jiggle it”
- I often ask Rachel if she will do me a favour and help me get stuff or do something for me, Caleb now asks just about everyone ...
