This weekend

This weekend is going to be Great! It is going to be 'my time'. This weekend I am alone. The whole place to myself to do what I want! This weekend is a step back in time for me to live as I did before. Party Time... Wonderful!! Being alone doesn't mean you're lonely, right?


Party

NOT any more....
Why you ask? Or maybe I am asking? 

I am so lonely, so bored, did I say lonely? Yes... and bored!

I could be out mowing, I could be tidying the house, I could be listening to music as loud as I can before the police arrive and I could be getting absolutely blotto!


Drink today and drown all sorrow

Yet I am sitting here, so lost without my girls. What's happened? Where is my passion for being with just me? It's just that when sitting here and 'having a ball' I here
"Papa!!!!" So I go to investigate.. and nothing's there..... Except Maximus who is sleeping, dreaming, drooling and making horrendous noises.

I don't like being alone now. I used to absolutely Love it! It was my existence for so long. Now this weekend shows me it is that being alone, is just lonely....

I hear it again."Papa!! I'm hungry!"
"but you just ate a whole plate of pasta!"
"Yes, but I'm still hungry. My tummies not full, see?"

The voice I hear is the voice I miss so much. I don't want to be alone. I want to be annoyed every 5 minutes of every day.

Now why did I post this? Oh that's right, because I am Blotto!!!! Woohoo. Got to go! I hear sirens....

"Maximus!!!!!!!"

Moments in time

{this moment} – A Friday ritual. A single photo – no words – capturing a moment from the week. A simple, special, extraordinary moment.

A moment you want to pause, savor and remember.

“This Moment” is a ritual found on Life inspired by the Wee Man adopted from SouleMama which I then kidnapped from Sarah-Jane

Music

I heard a strange noise...

It was coming from my girl's bedroom...
I got closer, it got louder...
I peered into the gloomy room...

First to hit me was an odour...
Then the noise came again loud and clear.... it was my flatulent offspring.

"Wow, are you ok? That's quite a loud pootpoot."

Amelie responds as only she can, "My bottom's making Music!."


It sure was! It was so loud and going for so long it was like a Bach or Mozart Crescendo.

I let my Musician continue as I headed outside for intermission and some fresh air.
