Fizzier than a fizzy thing...

Just thought I'd let you all know I am super-fizzy. Excited. Buzzing. Sprudlande hyper exalterad.

FIZZ FIZZ FIZZZZZZ

New Look - thank you very much

The sun is shining today, can you believe it. And no, I am not in the part of UK that is flooded (thank you all for asking) We have had a crappy summer, but no floods thank god.

Shades on, ipod on, pram out, Ellen into pram, off we went. Took a walk in to Wickford to meet Lisa and little Lauren for a quick chat and drink. Then we wandered in to New Look and can you believe it - they have introduced a "Tall" range. 36'' legs and all sorts of jeans, trousers, tops and god knows what. I would like to thank Mr God for being so kind to me.

Feeling really tired today for no reason. I fell asleep at 8pm in the sofa last night and woke up at 10pm when Steve got back from football. Then slept all night til 7am. Still tired. Why? No idea.

Tomorrow I've got my favourite BodyCombat again. That always wakes me up. Punching people's noses in, oh yessss.

Tonight I am going to eat Piri Piri Chicken, drink some wine and watch "Bachelor". Its chill out at its maximum. Brainless tv-watching and nice food. Then night night from me.

Good night to us

Finally our little sweetheart daughter has got the hang of this sleeping business!
She used to wake up anytime from 6am onwards and would normally not sleep past 7am. NOW! The last few days she's slept til 8am!!! Whoooopppie scoooopie! Lovely lovely!

Makes such a difference to your morning, when you actually get up feeling like your "supposed" to be up, not like you're the only person in the world up at that ridiculous time in the morning.

So thank you little Torro for letting us sleep. Torro=Ellen by the way. Don't ask. Silly nickname - Long story

Tomorrow if a Golden Train...

GOLDEN TRAIN
Don't you wake up yet
give me some time to watch you asleep
Oh angel of mine And I,
I will be fine as long as your near me Oh angel of mine

Was just sitting channel-surfing during the weekend, and happened to turn to VH1. Jo Whiley was kind enough to put Justin Nozuka on. Golden Train...volume went up, I was speechless for a while...loved it. Very nice thank you very much. A nice little listen.

Teeth - what a pain...

We're now on the 3rd day of Ellen growing teeth. Number 5 & 6 have decided to grow at the same time and they are now just cutting through the gum. Ellen is pretty much inconsolable. Constant moaning and crying, and every 30 seconds or so she gives out this super-highpitched scream. My eardrums are suffering. I took her to the supermarket to get some food, she likes sitting in the trolley chewing on my groceries. The highpitched screams didn't stop, she made people jump with fright. Quite funny actually, as it just comes from nowhere and is sooo loud.

The ball we were supposed to go to tomorrow, with Sarah & Barney, isn't happening for us now. Have been up from about 5-6am three mornings in a row now and Ellen hasn't gone down easily in the evenings either. Its been 9 o'clock most evenings and after that we've pretty much collapsed in the sofa and then gone to bed. Managed to go to BodyCombat Wednesday though which was great fun.
Really fancied dressing up for the ball, getting drunk and partying all night. Instead, I will be partying with Mr Calpol (Swe: Alvedon typ) and Mrs Teething Gel...

Thank god its Friday though. Tonight its me, Steve, Baileys, a film and nighty night from us.

Ho-Ho-Honda!

AH! I have got a new car! Upgraded my old Jeep to a 2005 Honda CR-V, beautiful light silvery-blue colour with aaaaah so many nice features. A little cooling compartment on the dashboard, air-con (that works...unlike the Jeep), arm rests, big mirrors and great visibility. The only things that's maybe a "downgrade" is the boot-space. I like to get the two dogs and the pram in the boot but not sure I can fit them all in now. Gotta be dogs or pram...or shove the pram in the backseat I guess. We'll find a way!

Back to manual after being automatic for a few years, and my gosh it goes! Just thought about pressing the accelerator down and whooosh I was in Kent!
Really like it, its slightly smaller than the Jeep and a bit more girly I guess.

Here are some pics. (not the actual one as its raining outside and I am not venturing out just to get some soggy photos...)
