A Little Space for Me

I’m trying out a new commenting system called Disqus. It’s all Riayn’s fault for trying it out and me seeing it - I’m a sucker for signing up for new things! So… let me know, do you like it? Don’t you like it? If you sign up for it too then let me know cuz apparently I can follow you or something!

Weekly Winners will be up soon, but I warn you now… I don’t have many this week!

I can never think of a decent title these days… and I always feel stuck on what to write about. Sucks right? I’m a blogger with Blogger’s Block. So please… feel free to send a lil inspiration my way, meme’s, anything!

Is there anything you want to know about me? About Scotland? Ask and I will try to tell you!

Want to see more pics of the boys, the cat, the hubby, the house… whatever? Just let me know and I’ll see if I can get the toddler to pose, or maybe even the cat, although really, he strikes a pose pretty nicely without instruction.

I’m feeling pretty apathetic at the moment. Apathetic, is that even the right word? Oh well, I’ll look it up later. Hmm, ok… maybe I’m just being lazy.

So!

Yes!

Questions!

Ask me some!!

Smoochies and hugs in advance

Just some random bits and pieces of mind-dumping going on today…

I’ve blogged on the other side - my gaming blog, cause I’ve been having fun with the game and some new friends - yay for the internet and new friends!

(No you don’t have to read it, I know it’ll make no sense whatsoever!

Rocky’s still settled, making himself right at home by sitting on my keyboard and such, luckily I have a big desk so I can push him to the side and he still gets to stay up here.

This was Day Five of Operation Potty Training and we didn’t have any accidents - YAY! Although he didn’t go for a poo  at all, but then he seems to be a little off at the moment, tired and wanting to nap a lot. I’m thinking it’s growth spurt time cause he’s been fitting in the clothes he has for a long time now, a stretch is definitely due soon! That plus he’s been much more active with Rocky about - they’ve been chasing each other up and down the hallway - ohsocute!

I think I’ve decided on what we’re going to do for Zack’s birthday next month. I was wondering about whether to give him a lil party with some of his wee friends from our close, but I figure why not wait till he’s old enough to actually WANT that eh? So instead we’re going to take him to the bowling alley. We took him once before at the end of April and he’s been asking to go back ever since, bless him! Less fuss, he’ll have great fun and be tired out, and Max was pretty happy then too.

Tomorrow we’ll go to the supermarket to get some groceries. I had been doing it online mostly but it’s a good way to get ALL of us out of the house for a while, a hassle in some ways ( trust me when I say you DON’T want to go food shopping with Zack… EVER!), but at the same time sometimes it’s just what J or I need to get us going again. Lethargy seems to be all around us at the moment… *sigh*.

I’m heading over to my parents on Sunday as it’s Father’s day. Gives J a chance to ‘bond’ with the boys on his own for a day… lmfao! It’ll be nice to see my own daddy on father’s day, it’s been quite a few years since we spent it together! That’s the only thing we’ve got planned, I just can’t believe it’s almost the weekend again already - where does it GO??

Signed up for Plurk this
morning, oh what a silly
thing to do - great fun!

I saw that all the cool kids were doing it and thought I’d jump on the bandwagon this morning so I signed up for Plurk. Didn’t *really* think I’d bother that much about it, but 2 hours after I first logged on I was still there, chatting away. How the h3ll am I supposed to make time for ANOTHER (micro-)blogging addiction?!

SO anyhoo, if you haven’t found me yet, or haven’t even given it a try, go on - you just might like it! Oh, and feel free to add me to your list!

We did THE SHOP this afternoon. You know the one… the monthly UBER SHOP OF DOOM that makes you want to never see a grocery store again? Especially when you wait til AFTER the baby has his nap and end up being stuck there during prime-shopping-time, right after the schools are out. GAAAH. I don’t even want to look at the receipt, I have a feeling Zack put some extra things in there… and so it begins *sigh*. At least he didn’t have too much of a meltdown til we were at the checkout. Why is it always at the checkout? Huh?

I PLURKED about that when I got back… it was fun. You should go check it out, and I should get paid for this blurb, seriously!

J made dinner tonight (chicken fajita’s) and Zack actually ASKED to go to bed early cause he was sleepy :O

Max was asleep by 6.30pm, Zack was out by 7pm, and J was glued to his pc for a night of raiding on Warcraft (I know that sounds sucky to some people but I understand live the obsession… what do you think I’ve been doing in the evenings lately?!) - nice evening all in all.

So now it’s time for a (relatively) early night for me - oh, did I mention that MAX SLEPT THROUGH AGAIN last night? No? Well he did - WOOT!! I’m hoping he’ll do it again tonight… time will tell n all that

Yay it’s the weekend!!

… and it’s set to private for now. I need somewhere I can completely be myself - including rants about family, so I’ve got it set to private and it’s only for a few friends to read. If you want to be ‘invited’ to be able read it then let me know in the comments of this post and I’ll let you know

I hope you understand why - I just need somewhere that I can let off steam, without having to worry about anyone getting hurt by it. I need somewhere I can rant and bitch uncensored that I can just brain-dump to, and I don’t really feel like I can do that here tbh. Too many “Real Life” people who I know read it now and thus I have to be careful of what I say.

Anyhoo… like I said, let me know if you want to read my rants and I’ll give you the address and figure out how to ‘invite’ you to read it (it’s on Blogger as invite-only).
