Here I am.

I suck at keeping up with this blog, don't I?

I mean, who'd have thunk chasing a toddler and a baby (who thinks he's a toddler too) plus going to uni plus working plus all of Honey's activities would leave me with so little free time?!

I mean, really!


(As a distraction, here is a video from YouTube that is so stupid that I love it. Its in no way a comment on my likihood to post more FMS photos. But it IS about a photo so perhaps its apt?)

Anyway today we're car-less because The Man has gone to work with it so we're chilling at home. Maybe later we'll bus it into town and look in the shops. Right now Honey is engrossed in The Wiggles and my teenager (Buddy) is eating which is what he does lately.

I've slacked off on the Fat Mum Slim photos but I've put all the prompts in my phone (which has a camera on it) so really I've got no excuse to not take the photos. I'm sure though that I'll find an excuse. That's what I do.

So in theory, there will be some FMS photos this afternoon! Don't hold your breath though.

Dedicated to Honey

I wrote a song today.

Well, maybe I adapted an existing song to reflect a moment in my own life.

Maybe someone out there can identify with how I was feeling when I wrote it?

If so, please leave a comment. If you make your own video of my song, send me a link to your video, and please credit my blog, because I really did sit here re-writing this uber-successful song.

**Until I figure out why my modem has shat itself I can't make a video of my song, so please LISTEN to the following instrumental version of Taylor Swift's 'We Are Never Ever Ever Ever Getting Back Together':



and READ/SING the following words:

I remember when I took you out, the first time
Thinking 'this is easy!' But its not, cause like
I take you everywhere I need to go,
When you decided you needed space, what?
Then you come around again and say
Mummy, I love you and I swear I'm gonna change
Trust me, remember how that lasted for a day
I say, I don't like you, we break up, you hug me, I love you

Oooh I swore I'd never take you anywhere again
But Oooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you
We are never ever ever going shopping together
We are never ever ever going shopping together
You bolted out of the post office, out of Kmart and away from me
So we are never ever ever ever going anywhere together

Like ever

I'm really gonna miss you picking fights
And me, screaming, looking for you in the shops
And you, will hide away and find something you wanna have, and you'll wreck it so that I am forced to buy.

Oooh you acted all innocent last night
But Oooh, this time I'm telling you, I'm telling you
We are never ever ever going shopping together
We are never ever ever going shopping together
You chucked a tanty at the shops then smacked me in the face
So we are never ever ever ever going anywhere together

I used to think, that we, were forever ever ever
And I used to say never say never
Huh, she hugged me and her brother and said she loved us
And I'm like, 'Why on earth are you being a devil child?
I am never taking you out again in public, like ever'

We are never ever ever going shopping together
We are never ever ever going shopping together
You stole Juicy Fruit, stole gift cards then made people glare at me
So we are never ever ever ever going anywhere together

We, oooh, oooh, not shopping together, we
Oh, going anywhere together

You poked your brother in the eye so then he screamed at me
So we are never ever ever ever going anywhere together.
