Things I Know

July 1, 2011 By: mamagrace7114 Comments

Holy sick twinlets !

Little K’s nose is running like a tap and his wheezing coughs are starting to make us all a little nervous.  It’s just a matter of seconds until Little N gets it.

Winters, flu, endless doctor’s appointments…just got to get through this sick-ridden season.

But hey, it’s Friday and it’s time to link up for Things I Know.  Make sure you head on over to Yay For Home! to join along.

So, hmmmm…here it goes…

I know:

That when your kitchen/dining room starts to look like this:

…it’s time to start thinking about moving.  Which is a real bugger because I love this place.  And I am really loving our neighbourhood and the community around it.

That there is a never a convenient time for blackouts and candles can only do so much.

That to better prepare ourselves for further blackouts is to not only have enough torches around but to also have an ample supply of batteries.

That one night of having Hubby out for a work function equals full control of the TV !  Awesomeness !!!

That slow cookers are the cat’s meow !  Being able to chuck some veggies and diced beef in a pot, walk away and come back in 6 hours with a delish Beef casserole makes life just that tad easier.

That today is a day at home and that a lot of cuddles, a bit of Wiggles and a touch of Play School is just what two sicky toddlers need.

Have a fabulous weekend, everyone !!!  Mwah ! x

    Ooh my place looks like yours! Our cue to move as well. It’s sad moving when it’s the only place your little ones know and you’re comfy there.
    I’m jealous of total control of the tv! I think mine might blow up or something if it went too long without fishing shows 😉
    Hope the boys are feeling better soon xo
