the boring thead, class not an issue

[Blandmum]

I need to cut my lawn. Do you think I'll need to do it again before the winter?

It is not posh it is confident.

I have some highlighter pens that say Highlighter, which is very helpful. They are blue, green, yellow and pink. They don't say 'blue' 'green' 'yellow' and 'pink' on them. I think you are supposed to be able to tell.

'My name is Tamum and I can do suduku in pen. Eat my intelectual dust, lesser mortals!'

I am now going to bathe my children. I think I will count and organise the cabinet of lotions and unguents. I cannot decide whether to arrange them by height, clinical purpose or colour.

I do have scribblings on it if that helps

will you cross refernce them?

Don't try to back track now tamum, that particular die is now cast

in my pencil pot i have a yellow pencil that has not yet been sharpened, at all. OneBoth ends are identical. Also a pink propelling pencil, three multimedia markers and aplastic bee.

Phew, I was just checking to make sure no-one had misunderstood my previous posting about Califrau's lack of a pencil with a name on it. I suddenly had a horrible feeling that people might think I wanted her to have a pencil with my name on it and that I was on some sort of personalised pencil power trip but luckily that isn't the case.

slowreader, when you have had a pencil as long as I have had mine, then one does grow to appreciate it.

Is that not your dds pink pencil?

The builders have hung the mirror over the air vent.

I would like a pencil with MOTHERINFERIOR on it. Or possibly a T-shirt, although the T-shirt would have to blazen it across my norks in a topographical kind of way.

I still resent having had name tapes with just my surname on so that things could be passed down to my sister.

Except I now do the same to the Inferiorettes - in fact they don't even get name tapes, just a scrawl in laundry pen usually of only half their surname. (And gallingly, it's DP's half as his surname is only six letters not my nine.)

Name tape threads, now they're boring.

I have a small plain brown pencil with Ikea written on it. It is strangely pleasing.

That reminds me I've got to sew a few into dd's new nay blue school polo shirts tonight. She's gone into long-sleeved as there's beginning to be a chill in the air

I wish you could order them ready-named like her swimming bag

I have not yet labelled ds's school trousers even though we are 5 weeks into term.

I just use a sharpie for my labelling, how terribly lazy.

Tamum, is he errr likely to lose them? (And I recommend giving him a laundry pen. Unlike the Inferiorettes he is unlikely to take advantage of the opportunity to festoon his garments with pictures of fairies.)

Bathroom cabinet now sorted. Analgesics and antihistamines on top shelf. Creams for itch, dryness, gums, scrapes and bonjella on middle shelf. Soap, toothpaste and misc. on bottom shelf. Each shelf is arranged in height order. Tallest to the left (obviously).

Maybe I should do a flow chart for the inside of the door....
do you have an itch if yes go to shelf 2 etc.

My pencil looks a bit like this

personalised pencil

only it's only one pencil

and it's red

and I'm not called Jamie Henderson

I am running a whole article on bathroom cabinets in our December issue. With photos and all.

Recorder practice here again.

Is the snail back?
