I'm looking over my dead dog Rover that I overran with the mower!
and
I don't know why she swallowed a flyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, perhaps she'll die!
So much for lying around the house like a luxury housewife with two small servants. Forgot I had an ad to send in today, so had to zoom into work at 11:30 to deal with it. Afterwards the kids and I picked up FIVE big boxes full of Christmas loot from the PO and then, because they were being so good, we went to McDonald's for lunch. That's right. I reward my children's behavior with FATTY FAST FOOD! what a mom, eh? While I was ordering they decided which Happy Meal toys they wanted. Martin chose a big-eyed, fat round little Japanese hamster with blue bows in its ears named Hamtaro, which I assume is the next followup to the Pokémon craze, and Karin chose a transformer robot/car. What is wrong with this picture? :P
One of the boxes contained Martin's birthday presents from my sister, and guess what one of them was?! Instant regression for me, that's what: SPIROGRAPH!
