Mum's in Town!

Ok I still don't have a whole lot of time to myself but I have caught up a bit on sleep.  Mum's rock...don't care who you are Mum's just rock least mine does.  Bless you, I'm only sorry I will have to return her to the rest of the family but it's given me a bit of a break the last week or so.  The girls are growing up so quickly!  Isabel is standing fairly well with a bit of assistance and Abigail is doing her best to try to catch up!

We are day dreaming about the possibility of trying to own our own home next year (I think we may still be dreaming but hey we might try after all what is the worst that can happen?)  We get turned down...oh well but it could be worth the headache.  Course we will probably have to come up with a large down payment but it would be almost worth it to have a place to bring the girls up in.  And the prospect of not having to move pay pet deposit etc is very tempting and oh do I want to move back to Livermore baad.

Ah well it's time for me to head to bed need my husband to drag me there as I'm just about sunk into the sofa and unable to move, some nights I need a crane to move my sorry ass out of the chair.

I spent the afternoon looking at old tv shows and playing clips to my girls of programs I grew up with.  It's amazing how things have changed over the years.  How myths about some things have started and also amazing who we can forget.  I was going through programs like the Clangers, Rainbow, Rentaghost....and remembered Jackanory oh how I loved that segment each weekday being read a story.  In looking on the internet I was reminded about a wonderfully talented actor who used to read for us on a regular basis, Kenneth Williams.  I didn't realize he took his own life in the end, and I have to admit I remember fondly his facial expressions and voices such a rare talent.  (Drifts on down memory lane)  I could get lost there for hours if I so wished, they just don't make programs and people like they used to.
