mmitments - it's nice to see they still have time to not only make babies - but have an active part in raising them. Angelina has always been a big favourite of mine. I love the Tomb Raider movies - watched one just recently at midnight - the same night that Nicky (our cat) decided to jump onto our new bar and knock over some 40 glasses that I had put on it that day - with the intention of packing in the cupboards. Alas, I never got around to doing it that day - and as a result then had only 1/2 of those glasses to put away. I was vacuuming glass at 1am. Poor hubby was not impressed especially as his pride & joy of 4 HARD ROCK CAFE shooter glasses were amongst the casualities. He had bought them on his trip to America earlier this year.Anyway, today I have managed to knock off a pile of paperwork that was ta
ller than me - or so it seemed. I am now digging into some Mango Chilli Philly before I head off to get the kids from school. Earlier I was looking at a beautiful flower that has shown in my fish pond area - I am not sure what it is called but have managed to download a picture (shock horror, I am getting good at this). I have 3 of these plants in that area but only the one open flower. There are about 15 buds so hopefully by the end of the week they are all flowering. Its almost like three flowers in one. The area is full of plants and bulbs are shooting up daily so in a few weeks when Spring is upon us it will look pretty special with lots of colour. Next step will be to clean up the pond and get some fish in there. Now that we have a BEN barrier around it I will be able to finish it the way I would like. Including new spotlights & other lighting that we once had before BEN decided they looked good enough to eat! He must have been a 'sparkie' in his previous life!
Well, belly is full - and its time to go! Have a good afternoon! ;o)

Well that was news to me! (The Brangelina pregnancy)! Ah, the bliss of lots of money for nannies to be there when they are working their high-paid jobs (and/or the ability to fly their families everywhere they need to go in the world).. it does help!
The pond flower looks *very* nice - can't wait for some photo's once they're blooming. Sad tale re: the bunch of glassware you lost.. what a shame! I hope you were able to suck-up all the glass. Are you aware of the 'night time' + torch trick to find extra unfound glass?
Hey Mik, just popping in to say hi. The blog looks great!
You can post a comment here on your own blog to answer any questions.. but I find that ineffective. It means every blog I comment on, I have to go back and check to see if there are answers every day. I like this method better. If you ask me a question, I visit your blog and answer it! And if I ask you a question then you can visit my blog and answer it. (But since we have each others email addresses, we can communicate that way too.. HA!). So here I am :-) I heard once that the best way to see if you have any residue glass on a floor is have the room in complete pitch-black darkness (like when kids are asleep.. have curtains closed) and then turn on a torch and scan the area where the glass was.. the glass 'twinkles' and reflects back at you as you shine the light on it. I've tried this and it works. Assuming the torch covers all areas. I've broken glass before and found chunks 3 metres away in a pot plant or something. It travels! Also, to pick the fine bits up.. wet newspaper over the top.. it will pick up the fine, brittle shards.
Re: a profile pic. Go to your blog, click on your profile and if you're logged in it should have a button that says 'Edit your profile'. It's there that you can upload the pic of your choice which appears on all comments you leave! :-) Tea tonight was just sausages in bread with sauce! Nothing fancy - just fatty!
