April 7, 20224 yr Getting ready to watch Survivor and then Domino Masters. If you haven't seen Domino Masters on Fox, you're missing some cool domino runs. These teams create awesome topples that are fun to watch 😊
April 7, 20224 yr Author Waiting for the big announcement....oh...um...waiting for the 2 big announcements... 1. The birth of Baby Boo 2 2. The Aussie election Both are going to be any day now....I dunno if my nails will survive it.
April 8, 20224 yr Cleaning up from our big kitchen project of tiling. I said I would post a finished picture. Boy was this a job. We had painted the kitchen cabinets and got new countertops. It was hard enough picking a tile because the counter tops seemed so busy in color. We have been here 32 years and definitely needed a redo.
April 8, 20224 yr Well done ....your kitchen looks brilliant ....all your hard work has paid off... Love the colours Sweetie ... You can come and do mine 😁😁🐸
April 8, 20224 yr @Mee, your new backsplash looks wonderful, very spiffy! DIY-ing projects can save money and be gratifying... except when they become expensive and super aggravating. My partner and I are currently debating whether to hire someone to bury our gutter/sump pump drainage pipe (her vote), or whether I'm going to spend a weekend in the back yard wielding gravel and a shovel (my vote). Secretly, I hope she wins the argument. Anyway, congrats on powering through your troubles and getting a beautiful end result. Hopefully you'll feel a glow of pride every time you use your kitchen.
April 8, 20224 yr @Mee, when my husband and I married he had his own business. He did a lot of tile work. You should be proud, it looks like you paid a pro to come in and do it!

I am one that likes to get in there and make it look new fast. We were torn up for over a week. I am thankful my husband will try anything (he is too cheap to pay anyone).

As for the other big announcement...Mister Jackson has not made his big debut yet. We are in the the 39th week. The boy is at full-term. If Jackson does not make his grand entrance by this time next week, the good doctor has said she will consider inducing labor. So, to answer the question "what are you doing right now?" Pacing....lots of pacing.
April 10, 20224 yr @Boo Jackson will be right on time when he arrives. I missed that with my kids as both of them were scheduled C sections due to the then Mrs. yoda being unable to survive labor. I'm nervous and excited for you. Sending some positive vibes out to you and Mrs. Boo, or Sugar Britches I believe is what you refer to her as. I was blathering something over on my thread about living a rad life but I believe you are doing the radest thing ever. Best wishes Papa Boo.
April 10, 20224 yr Author Election has been called...off to the polls we go Sat 21 May.....democracy sausages here we come! 1 down, 1 to go..... could still be a little Anzac Day baby.... Right now... I'm sitting in me car listening to the footy....

Oddly enough, Sugar Britches is calmer than I am right now. And she's the one doing all the heavy lifting. Shout out to my mom and dad and for that matter, all parents everywhere. Pregnancy and childbirth is the most intensely emotional thing I've ever experienced. Edited April 11, 20224 yr by Boo
April 11, 20224 yr Yep !l.... Going through all those emotions without your little fix ...and not even a thought of them .. That something to be happy and proud of Boo....your little Prince and Princess will never have to Smell or watch Daddy chuck up gung .... High Five to that .❤️🐸
April 17, 20224 yr Dyed Easter eggs for the first time in what seems like forever tonight. Maddie had fun with it and Papa Boo has figured out that using a tarp like a drop clothe makes cleaning up after a toddler art project much easier. Some of our eggs didn't turn out perfect, but a good time was had. I was pleasantly surprised to see that the Paas company is not only still around but making the exact same product they produced when I was a kid. Dye tablets. Those wire egg dippers. The "magic crayon"...It was like opening a time capsule. Not to boast but I dropped a little extra for the "Deluxe" kit.
April 17, 20224 yr Author Lamenting the fact egg dying kits were not a thing down here...I feel like my childhood was deprived. Also, watching Malcom and wondering how the frick Colin Friels never made it in Hollywood.
