……and my accident for today will be….

were the first words out of Boo’s mouth as we got to school this morning.
Yes, I sent him to school. More on that in a minute.
I looked at Boo. Picked my jaw up from the ground, wiped off the asphalt, leaves and rocks, and popped my eyes back in my head.
‘Pardon?’ I stammered.
‘My […]

At school 2 hours and a trip to the hospital.

Minutes after the last post I got a call.
Boo can no longer walk.
Boo is complaining of pain. Constantly.
The kid that had 4 exposed nerves in his teeth that we only knew about when he went for a filling.
The kid that snaps off his own teeth. Or levers them out with anything vaguely sharp.
The […]

School

School holidays are over for Moo and Boo.
Too goes back tomorrow and is currently holed up in her room with her best friend since she was 5.
A now, 14 year old boy. Who has ‘grown up’ a heck of a lot in the last 4 weeks since I last saw him.
My first reaction when […]

I am pissed off.

And hot.
I am perpetually pissed at everything.
And hot.
When it is not really that freaking hot.
Is it? Nah. It couldn’t be. Could it?
Nah. It is summer. And people are fucking stupid. And I am only 35.
I am justified in my boiling hot rage. Yeah, that’s it.
I am pissed at […]

Dearest Boo.

My dearest son.

My adorable little man.

Do you have a death wish? Or are you secretly plotting to have me keel over before my time due to sleep deprivation and sheer frustration?

I understand that you don’t need to sleep. I understand that your brain is wired in some fantabulous way that means that you […]

Isn’t it wonderful………

watching a child fall asleep?
I am sitting on the lounge, surrounded by toys and the contents of a chest of drawers, a tower of CD’s precariously perched on the side of the TV cabinet. The laptop in front of me, my legs swung over the side, some crap on the TV, the disco […]

Shee-ite!

Man, there is some crazy kinda stink coming out of my boy.
Like rotting flesh and playdoh.
Or is it communism? I don’t know but it smells like 40 kinds of awful.
We went to a cafe after school today. Boo was beside himself as it was a gluten free cafe and he got to have […]

Boo is psychic.

Or he is reading my fucking blog.
Cause the bastard turned the night time shenanigans up a notch. He is now the official time keeper.
I knew that bragging last night about him staying in his room was a mistake.  I knew it would come and bite me in the arse.
I knew that Murphy hated me, that […]

Happy sigh, then shit.

In the car on the way home from school, Boo’s favourite song of the moment came on the radio.
“Chasing Cars” by Snow patrol
I unconsciously started singing.
Boo hates that. Shuddup. He hates EVERYONES singing, not just my off key efforts.
Boo turned to me and started singing with me.
We were harmonizing in the car.
He kept […]
