finding nemo - 11:04 PM
(filed under 'general')
shroom & i just watched finding nemo. gosh it was good! wow, really impressive. i loved the characters & the animation was amazing.
having been down there myself (underwater in the great barrier reef, that is) i can say that they did a really gret job with the details. the colours & the way they drew everything was spot on. shroom saw one small error which was that there was a fresh water plant in the salt water tank, but other than that, it was top notch. brilliant, brilliant movie.

odd places - 03:14 PM
(filed under 'animal')
that's two eggs today which one (or two) of the chooks have laid in odd places. this morning i found an egg in a hollow in the dirt which they've using as a dirt bath & just now i looked out the back door to find one laid on the concrete on the porch!

only five? - 12:44 PM
(filed under 'animal')
i thought we'd lost a chook for a few minutes there. when i'd seen them hanging around in a bunch, lately, i'd only counted five chickens. i went looking for number six chicken & was actually sniffing the air as i went, afraid that i'd smell her before i saw her, if you know what i mean. no worries though, she was actually just sitting on her (unfertilised) egg, waiting for it to hatch.
when we got the chooks months ago, we were warned about foxes in the area. i don't know where these foxes are, because if there were any around, i'd have thought they'd have taken a chook or two by now, especially since ours wander around wherever they choose.
rhiannon's digital quilt - 12:06 PM
(filed under 'creative')
myla asked me if i'd like to contribute to rhiannon's digital quilt so i did. one picture is from my site, but the others most of you won't have seen before. they're mostly flowers & one butterfly. you can see them here.
the big question - 05:49 AM
(filed under 'baby')
so he finally goes to sleep in the swinging chair. then comes the question of moving him or leaving him where he is. if i leave him where he is, he'll stay asleep, but if i move him, he might wake up & so i can't go back to sleep. then again, i can't go back to sleep with him in the chair anyway, because it's not really a safe place for him to sleep unattended, so really if i want to try to sleep, i have to move him. it's a dilemma i face daily.
this morning's result? i moved him & he woke up. i've now put him back & he's happily dozing off again. poo.

you are getting sleeeepy - 05:21 AM
(filed under 'baby')
tough times call for tough measures: the wind-up swinging chair. if he's at all tired, this usually does the trick. i'm still waiting to see big yawns though .. from him, not from me. there are plenty of yawns from me. 
wide awake - 05:13 AM
(filed under 'baby')
