Beating George

Build a tower from paper and tape was the assignment for each pupil in 5M, build it as tall as you can and the tallest wins…but it must stand up to wind (produced by Mrs Merson wafting a piece of cardboard) Well apparently Lincoln was able to build a tower almost as tall as himself […]

New Living room update

New couchlooking good but we were struggling for a place to put stuff like drinks etc so we decided to put a shelf behind the sofa slightly lower than the rear cushion. We bought 2 pieces of oak to match the mantle which I installed this weekend

The streak is over!

Yep, unfortunately after 83 days last night after doing so well for so long I dropped the ball, my concentration wained I was distracted and I failed I succumbed. Luckily I only succumbed to tiredness I forgot to blog something I’d done since 13th November and last night I went to bed I also didn’t […]

Six Months my BALLS

Reagan and Mommy were laying in bed and apparently Reagan said “You can’t get Covid for 6 months after having it” I was in the bathroom all heard was Lincoln say “6 months my balls…!” Slightly taken aback I stopped brushing my teeth and said “I BEG your pardon?” As I poked my head around […]

Mortality

80 days

The end of dry January was the 80th day of sobriety today, and numbers like that are great to see “milestones” if you will? I never end a sentence like that but just fancied it tonight lol I have found it pretty easy now my routine has changed to not drinking but I do have […]

Time Travel

Lincoln’s conversation at teatime tonight was “If you could travel back in time when would you travel to?” and we had some fun with it but it got me thinking about Mommy’s and my answer compared to Reagan’s and Lincoln’s and it made me realise they have not lost anybody significant in their short lives. […]

Lincoln and Homework

Tonight Mommy asked if he’d done his homework and the silence that followed answered the question followed by the frustrated “I’ll do it now” confirmed it. He was caught doing his homework on Wednesday morning the day it was due so we had a talk and agreed no X-Box if that ever happened again. I […]

Movie night

The Broncos have hired a new head coach and tonight I watched George Paton introduce Nathaniel Hackett as the 18th Head Coach in franchise history and I am very excited about the appointment having suffered some lacklustre years since SuperBowl 50 he has already brought some excitement and enthusiasm which has been missing with Vance […]
