I have done but it was in June and he wasn't there (or was hibernating).

Surely you don't need to travel that far to see Father Christmas? You must have a mirror in the house.

942 198 Hi y'all. I spend a lot of time telling my kids that no, Sinterklaas has really gone back to Spain so we really don't have to read Sinterklaas stories or sing Sinterklaas songs only to come here and see talk of Father Christmas... in Februari. Hi Jayme, long time no see! How's life?

The dates are flying by, for sure. But dawn seems like a very long time ago though it really wasn't.

942 188 I tripped over a curb today and went down --banged my hip and REALLY wrenched my lower back. It hurts like a bugger...

Me too! Hope you get better, that is.
Me too! I also fell over - on ice cunningly hidden by firm-looking snow - the other day and landed on my hip, which was sore for a few days.

942 184 942 198 Hi Jayme, long time no see! How's life? It's rather boring at the moment, with a few annoying hiccups here and there. I eat, sleep, go to work, drive home from work in blizzards, and sometimes lock myself out of the house when it's -12C and have to wait 4 hours for a locksmith. Then the next day it is +20C. So much fun! I haven't gotten a haircut since March of 2020, and my chin length hair has grown down to my waist. I had covid in December. I was exposed at a Wet Leg concert. (Totally worth it, even though I could've died. It was one of the best shows I've ever attended.) Oh, and my sportsball team is playing in the Super Bowl this weekend! Yay! So, how are you? It seems you've acquired a 2nd munchkin? Congratulations! ❤

942 183 It doesn't sound rather boring to me, Jayme I take it Wet Leg is the name of a band and not your personal state after getting locked out of the house in a blizzard.

942 181 Sounds like a pretty eventful 3 years actually. Especially if you experience driving home in those conditions on a regular basis... I hope you had the covid version without long lingering health issues?
And yeah, Girl number two was literally born in quarantaine in October 2020. Hospital staff was all dressed up in moon landing gear all because I coughed and testresults still took 24 hours to come out *rolls eyes*

That was quite an experience, Mari. Did you have any after effects from the prolonged birth or Covid?

Post by Mari on Feb 12, 2023 6:26:33 GMT
942 179 No no, I didn't have COVID, nor was I in labour for 24 hours. I had a cough so I had to do a test, but the results took 24 hours to get out, so until they were assured it wasn't COVID everyone had to pretend it was to be safe. Girl 2 was a quick and easy birth. Just like Girl 1 actually. I had to stay until the result was out though.

942 177 I've just spent over an hour trying to find my hearing aids. Finally, I gave up and decided to watch TV. And there they were hidden underneath the TV remote control

942173 I'm hungry. But it's still very early and I know that if I go downstairs now I'll wake the monsters. Half an hour more peace and quiet or food? That's the question.

942171 In the end it was neither: kids also woke up early and ill, so breakfast ended up being late. Dinner however was really early so we could kick the kids back to bed early as well.
