I almost killed the whole family in a roundabout on the way to the zoo. NO REALLY. I should have been in the right hand lane of the A11 but I was in the left and it was bad. Sorry guy I cut off!! Don't worry, I made The Man drive home.
This is the second week of LaLa being home from school and I am getting way too used to sleeping in. When school starts next week I am gonna be in a world of hurt.
Does Mac not let you do keyboard shortcuts like ctrl c and ctrl v? I am not used to actually having to go up to a menu to copy and paste.
This morning I had a bowl of Special K cereal and a yogurt for breakfast. What I really wanted was scrambled eggs, bacon and hashbrowns. It was an exercise in self restraint.
Convo with LaLa 2 seconds ago
LaLa- Mom, you spell no N-O. I don't know how to spell anything else.
Me- You know how to spell stop.
LaLa- Yeah, but I don't know how to spell Eagle.
*look of confusion from me*
(she then tried to spell Eagle on her own and it came out as E-G-O-L..which is pretty close)
My voice is still gone. This kinds stinks for me because well...I'm a yeller. I go to yell at my kids and my voice cracks and then goes silent. Which actually makes it do the same amount of good as when I actually yell...not a whole lot.
Sam, the cat, has been extra crazy lately and staring out the windows constantly. The reason? Pigeons. There is a flock of chicken sized pigeons has taken up residence in my backyard. They taunt him.
Well I think that is enough random for now. I need to get to work and start doing some of the errands that I promised The Man I would get done today. Ta Ta For Now!

Mac does the short keys thing. Just use the Apple button there next to your space bar instead of Ctrl.
Roundabouts are tricky be careful out there.
You're silly. Those roundabouts are gonna be your demise I tell ya!
When I read about your breakfast desires for some reason my brain read "marshmallows". Tomorrow I may have marshmallows for breakfast.
I hate roundabouts. They were designed so the people who monitor traffic cameras have something to laugh about.
You should have at least allowed yourself one piece of bacon. Why torture yourself?
You mentioned bacon and hash browns; now I'm hungry.
A little tip from the pros love, the apple Key is control on a MAC, for a "right click" control click. those two thing will save you sanity for sure!
I went through my first "roundabout" a few months ago. (i didn't know they existed in the states!) Those things are confusing!
I haven't visited here in awhile! I've got alot of reading to do on here!
I can sympathize with your voice being gone, because I too hail from the land of loving to yell. If my voice were gone, my child would look at me and laugh that she could could do things and I couldn't yell at her. She is naughty that way.
CRAP! I just realized that I have a toddler who is as sarcastic as hubby and I.
That. Is. Just. SPECIAL.
I think roundabouts were created by the devil.
That's some big f*&(ing pigeons.
Mmmm...pigeons, er, I mean bacon.
He he, Mama Dawg and Cameron just cracked me up!
You use the apple instead of the control key.
Bacon cures hangovers! True news fact! I've been telling everyone I meet!
wow. Pigeons.
We have to go through a roundabout just about every day. It's just down the street from our house. Over 10,000 cars go through that thing every day! Dangerous, indeed!
I don't know what I would do if I couldn't YELL AT MY KIDS!!!!!!
I nearly kill college students every time I use the roundabouts when picking up my son. They need diagrams.
Herein lies confirmation of my roundabout fear...
:)
I'm sure everyone else has mentioned this, but use the Command key instead of Control. I wanted to beat my mac up for at least a day or two before I figured this one out. I live that you ended with "ta ta!" So very British of you.
Yelling with no voice is just no fun!!!!
How fast do you think you'd have to be going to roll in a roundabout?
If the yelling isn't working maybe you should try alternate methods while your voice is recuping. Like, oh, flogging.
Just want to ditto Keely. A flogging would make great blog fodder.
