what a day...

Oh boy!!
or rather..
Oh Girl!!

Today it rained.. of course it did.. weve had nothing but rainy days for 2 or 3 weeks straight!! The grass path next door (short cut to shops) is a sloppy, slippery mud path now... its almost like walking on ice, but its mud?!

All week ive been at home, finish the 11am-midday feed and then off to the shops, as a pram ride will normally put alyssa straight to sleep. But today i had no urge to go out! I thought id see how we all would cope being stuck inside with the rain. (seeing as Tia has been told to clean her room all week, yet being out so often for so long, means its still in a bombshell state..)

This is how my day went;
Feed alyssa 6.45am, burp, she fell asleep in our bed, get out of bed without waking alyssa. Have quick shower, get bra off clothes line, get dressed fully, make coffee, drink coffee, alyssa wakes up, finish feeding alyssa, burp, she falls asleep, put her down on couch, find all the bowls have not been washed by the dishwashing faeries change brekkie plans, alyssa wakes up and cries, make brekkie, scoff it down while settling alyssa with a dummy. place alyssa in the pram, quickly pick up mess off the floor thats been there all week, move boxes, put a quick load of washing on, vac the floor, settle alyssa, change nappy, play with alyssa and tia. think about lunch, feed alyssa watching dr phil, alyssa falls asleep in cot, phone rings 3 times and stops & washing machine beeps alyssa wakes up (of course while im on the toilet, when else do home phones ring?! lol) settle alyssa, eat icecream.. change nappy, feed alyssa, successfully get off couch and walk to bedroom without waking alyssa, put alyssa down in cot, alyssa wakes up instantly, settle alyssa, alyssa sleeps 10mins, alyssa wakes up.. and now its 5.30pm! ARGH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hubby comes home.. alyssa falls asleep

Nori update **** she is in heat AGAIN!**** FULLY INSANELY IN HEAT!
Tom cat has pee-d out the front & is stinking out my house (having serious thoughts bout getting one of those automatic every 15mins room spray things) and i thought male mice STANK! (like 10 male mice.. but no this tom cat STINKS!) The tom calling doesnt bother me, when im asleep i have the ability to sleep thru james alarm going off (at the moment anyways).. just cant sleep thru alyssa starting to wake or alyssa crying (which james can sleep thru) Previously didnt know there was any other cats on our street.. so no idea what this tom looks like.. The tom has found Nori as she has been outside a fair bit.. and today i did not want to deal with all 3 girls wanting my attention, all 3 making noise.. 2 is enough!! Id just like Nori to fall preggy have her kittens and get her desexed!! which is what ive wanted from the start (the desexing bit.)

Gee, that Alyssa person certainly takes up a lot of your time! ;-P

Little darlin'.. your house is filled with princesses!

I can remember buying this green gel stuff in a plastic tube called "Rack off".. or "Nick off"..or something like that..You put it out and cats can't stand it and they stay away. Well.. it did and didn't work. Out in the elements the stuff loses its potency.. especially if it gets rained on. And the gel stinks itself -like a cross between menthol and camphor?! That was in the early 90's ..I wonder if there are any other cat deterrants you could put at the front of you door and where other cats may roam? (And where Nori wouldn't normally wander)?

I know the smell of Tomcat pee.. it's dreadful.

I am morphing Jenna into a dishwashing faerie.. day by day. We're getting there. Dealing with plates (my left hand) still challenges me and hurts because of the weight of them. Cutlery is fine.

Bless you.. hope you're having a good weekend.
