A little bit of this … a little bit of that ...

I got a haircut last week … nobody noticed.

Which hair?

I added cleaning the shower to my ever-growing list of "Dangerous Domestic Duties" … must be avoided at all costs … very, very dangerous.



I seem to be surrounded by smug organised people … who delight in telling me that they have nearly finished their Christmas shopping.  I have not started.


On the subject of Christmas … my boys gave me their "Christmas Lists".

Master 16's

Master 13's

It will be a Christmas miracle if they receive even half of these requests … especially YOU Master 16.


You may recall me mentioning a new "top secret project" I was meant to be working on.


I bought the necessary supplies … and then conveniently forgot all about it.  Hubby reminded me this week that the deadline for the completed project is next Friday … I don't work well under pressure.


Can anyone guess what it might be?


I was reliably informed this morning by "The Today Show" … so therefore it must be true … that there is a new trend in selfies.  Move over duck face … there's a new pose in town … welcome to "The Squinch".  No wide open eyes … they're not flattering … you need to lower your upper lids and raise your lower lids.  Like a squint … but not a squint … it's a squinch … and it makes you look sexy … apparently.


Hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend.

    Oh yes, nice hair cut!! Sorry for not noticing, seems rude really! Christmas!! I am with you,m nothing done, but I also have no plans. The lads don't write lists, they will be happy with a sox, jox, and whatever you get me parcel. Do you need any more reasons not to do domestics? I keep saying it should be avoided, if it needs to be done, get someone else to risk their life!!

      LOL … the nobodies I was referring to were Hubby and the boys. But I can't really blame them … if I hadn't actually been there I probably would't have noticed either.

    I needed a new pose 'the squinch' it is! hurrah! yes, you did get your hair cut! how shocking I didn't notice! it must be because a professional has done it and not an amateur like me (my trim=hack) you did your neck in last week and now blisters! get back on that awesome couch and relax! and Christmas? *shudder* I have done nothing, nothing! I was beginning to think I was the only one, I seem to get asked 'have you finished your shopping?' finished? I haven't started! x x x have a great weekend! x x x

      I thought about making a shopping a list … but then I said "Bah Humbug" and decided to leave it till next week … or the week after … or the week after … just how long do I have left to procrastinate??

      I KNOW … it's eeeep alright. I'm seriously needing a large dose of inspiration, motivation and Xmas spirit.

    I've been trying to squinch, too. It just accentuates my crows feet. sigh.... Love the close up of your freckles or as my aunt calls them "angel kisses."

      Your aunt sounds like my type of lady … I have a cousin that used to call them my rust spots ;0)

    Will it make you feel better to know I haven't done any Christmas shopping at all? The kids have been making random suggestions, but so far it is all at the planning stage... Well, not even that, really.
    Squinching? I'd look like I do when the light isn't good and I can't read the small print. And that's not a good look! xxx

      It does make me feel a little better … we can both panic together on Christmas Eve.

    You have such lovely hair!

    Must wear gloves, your hands look like OUCH ~

    I saw that thing on the "squinch" I already have squinty eyes so I think my squinching might push me over into the can't see without glasses category.

      Thanks Tami … I'm still stuck on the part where it's supposed to make you look sexy … I think it just makes you look myopic.

      p.s. I was going to leave a comment on your blog … but it only seems to let me if I have Google+ profile … which I don't. But I was there and I loved it.

    Nice new hair!
    I have done no Xmas shopping and haven't even thought about it. I get less interested every year. xxx

      The novelty seems to be wearing thin around these parts too … sometimes I get a little inspired after we put the tree up … but I refuse to do that before December.

    Every January I decide that I'm going to be one of those smug fold next Christmas … and somehow by November I've always forgotten. Xbox and Playstation obviously have their Xmas marketing all worked out and it's targeting teenage boys with a vengeance.
