Now that we are in February we'll have a bit of colour here. These are the tulips from last week.
This week's flowers are as kitsch-as-hell. Coasters, in perfect nick. They smell just like they've been at the back of someone's sideboard for 50 years....
I think the parenting skills inspection went well. If that's how you can describe a psychologist clutching at straws. I'd hidden all the Tizer leftover from Christmas, and the empty pot noodle cartons anyway. They basically think he'll go back into a school somewhere, but not the current one, in his own sweet time. So, no problem there then. Apparently.
Last night's online grocery shop was a fail, as I was drawn instead to checking out a blog of old film and tv stills. This meant The Supermarket. Again. So, I put the blinkers on, got myself banned from the jewellery aisle, and managed a well-disciplined haul. Although the super-sized, stubby 720g jar of Branston was chosen for vase-potential so a swift decanting will need to be actioned.
Swift and action are words that are going to have to enter my vocabulary, replacing sofa-time and laissez-faire. Slapdash and slack are not getting me anywhere fast. In fact, I would like my life to be wireless, streamlined, less messy. But in the meantime I can't stop playing the Pixies....
...and uploading the odd photo of glorious buildings.

had a minute listening to the ice storm outside my sunroom to catch up on your blog. I love the way you write...Honestly..you can make lying on the couch sound funny and truly something I wish I could write about!
I live in Indianapolis, Indiana...in the middle of the winter storm of the century or centuries or for at least the last few years!
Thank you Kim. Bizarre global weather in a lot of places - have you got blizzards?
