A snippet of (L)ydiate life...

Chris: Who's the better dancer - Me or Michael?
(brief pause whilst I survey and assess dancing)
Me: Well your's definitely wins points for the LEAST likely to injure others or break things....

I only just noticed this!!! ARRRRGGGHHHH!

I've only just noticed this - the dates seem to be set to US time. Arrgggghhh! This IRKS me no end.

Refinement Process....


...Okay...you'll just have to be happy with this pic. It's not exactly the same blend....this one's a well thought through mix of Whittaker's Dark Block, Snot (a staple ingredient it seems) and Vege Lasagne.... Blend well and....ENJOY!

Actually I can't decide between this picture and another where he looks rather stunned...it'll have to be this one...
Btw...all JoJo flavours are personally blended atop his "unlicensed" high chair.

A taste for change...

I suspect Joseph was working on an all new flavour of "every flavour beans" yesterday morning in preparation for the premiere of the latest HP installment...Marmite, snot and Olive oil spread - think it'll take?




(You'll just have to imagine him completely slathered in a mixture of Marmite, spread and snot - with the odd toast crumb - I'm sorry I just can't let things like that stand - I HAD to clean him!!!)

Spell Cheque...(sp)

Michael wanted to know what the red lines were and how you got them there when you are typing...
Mum: That's because Americans spell things incorrectly...
Michael: Oh....(pausing to think intently on this...)...Do they know how to spell 'Monday'?"
(pffffft!)
Mum: (chortle) Uh, yes.

Sunday snippet....

...Home today from church with sickly Jonty - it seems his amusing and oft times completely irrelevant responses are not just limited to Primary.

Mummy: Hey Jonty, why don't we read a scripture or two and then play a game of mini monopoly?
Jonty: OHHHHH!!!!( It is imminently difficult to accurately convey with mere words Jonty's Melodramatic Soap Operatic Level enthusiastic responses) Mummy! OHHH!! That would be a GREAT idea!
Mummy: Okay go and get my scriptures please.
Jonty: OKAY!!!!!
Mummy: How about we read one of your favourite stories or scriptures?
Jonty: OHHHHHH YESSSS!!!!
Mummy: Okay then. What's your favourite? Which story or scripture do you want to read?
Jonty: Chapter 11.
Mummy: There are a lot of Chapter 11s.......Which is your favourite?
Jonty: (intently scanning and searching each page with his finger, then finally....) THIS one.
Mummy: Uhhhh....THAT..... is the INDEX.

Equally classic is Michael's spontaeneous reaction when I reported this snippet of conversation to
him....

On the Lord's Errand...?


Here's Joseph caught in the act of helping himself to a twenty from Mummy's wallet. Actually it's tithing that I neglected to pay last Sunday. Must be collecting for the Lord.
