1. Computer saga!
Wow! So, I wasn't online yesterday BECAUSE we went to the computer store and foolishly tried to just plug in the new motherboard and processor and memory we bought! OH NO. ( A brief summary of our travails. )
2. Lingerie saga!
We learned what Wax's new bra size is at last, since she's lost like 30lb in the last year or so and her boobs have shrunk so most of her old bras don't fit. She is now a 34E/DD (75E in European sizing). This is a kind of unusual size, but she managed to buy two bras, neither of which cost more than €50, which is, let me tell you, a big step up from the last time she had to buy a bunch of bras at once. ( The difficulty of buying lingerie. )
3. Interior design interlude!
We determined that we are going to keep going with the green Teema bowls and matching sandplatelets wee plates and white Taika big plates. We both agree that matching cups are annoying.
4. Babysitting Today
Then we went to help babysit the noobs and Carmela while their parents were at yet another wedding and OH MY GOD. They didn't come back until past one am, so we were there for like, six hours - two changings, two feedings, three periods of ostensible sleep, and at least three periods of Ciara's and Carmela's ear-splitting shrieks. I was on my feet bouncing - because I am often the only person with the energy to stand and bounce, which is often the only way to make them shut up - for hours and hours. And this was when both of the boys were actually being remarkably good, but there was still constantly stuff for four adults to do. One adult per child actually felt rather strained while Carmela was awake. x.x
