We are now both suffering from cabin fever, and I’m pretty convinced he’s sick of me now. That’s ok, because Pox Boy is going back to school on Monday, dammit.

It’s been a bloody long week.

I WON.

And it turns out I didn’t have to pay anyone. You can read more on Jay Mountford Photography and on Ice the Cake. OMFG! And thank you.

I’ve been asked to go back and perform with an orchestra. I quit professionally a few years ago. My last ever concert was very nearly a year ago, I haven’t picked up my cello since then.

I want to play. I actually want to play. Unfortunately, the thought TERRIFIES me. Maybe I’ll do some of the rehearsals. Play it safe, and all that.

Dammit.

In the car

Noah: Mommy can I have a drink please?

Me: Yes, would you like some juice when we get back? I don’t have anything on me now.

N: Ok, yes please.

Isaac: Can I have a drink please Mommy?

MBM: Yes, when we get back Isaac. What would you like?

I: Ummm…wine please.

MBM: …would you like red or white?

I: Ummm…white wine, please.

MBM: …okaaaayyyy…

I was so desperate to get into a bottle of wine last night, I managed to shatter the cork, flip the corkscrew off my hand and give myself a massive blood blister on my thumb.

I’m embarrassed. I may have to revert to screw top bottles. And ask Isaac for help.

I know we’re over these now, but this one still made me laugh.

Happy Snacks Face. Mickey didn’t get any.

Comedian Face. Always the funny boy.

Er…ok, I think that was enough.

MBM: are you doing a poo, Isaac?
Isaac: No.
MBM: You have the same poo face as Noah. Give it up, I know you’re doing a poo.
Noah: I know he’s doing a poo, I can smell it.
I: Ok, I doing a poo.
MBM: Have you finished Isaac?
I: No
N I can smell it Isaac; it smells like you’ve finished.
I Ow!
N Does it hurt Isaac? Is your poo hurting you?
I Yes.
N Is it spiky, Isaac?
I Yes, it’s spiky.
MBM: OK NOAH, I think you can leave Isaac and his poo alone now…

At least it’s not taboo, eh?

Head to toe. Very bloodshot right eyeball as of about 30 minutes ago. Screams when he pees. 4 hours of sleep. Loss of appetite. Fever.

REALLY done with it now.
