Listened to some Colin Buchanan music tonight with the girls and BFF. I'd forgotten how funny and clever he is. If you haven't heard his music there is a little bit on YouTube. Bringing back a few memories of times we listened to it in the car on long trips before D and I separated.
It also reminded me of some tv shows that I don't watch any more. D and I used to enjoy watching Spicks n Specks and RockWiz but they just aren't the same to watch on your own, so I don't watch them any more. Funny, isn't it?! ...or not. Some things in life are just not much fun on your own.
Madame I turned 10 today. She's such a beautiful young lady. She had a couple of friends come and we went out to a restaurant for tea then a sleepover. One of her friends said "wow, menu's. I've never been in a restaurant with menu's before" I think what she meant was that they weren't just laminated sheets, but were in a nice folder. The girls were just lovely to be with and we all had a great night. When we got home they played on their Nintendo DS's together and watched a movie....I went to bed at 11pm and they finally came up to bed just before 2am! So I did the parenting bit and told them it was time to be quiet and go to sleep, and they did. Then Madame I woke up at 7:30am and woke the other 2 up! after only about 5 hours sleep... So tonight I sent them to bed at 6:30pm! Thank goodness for winter sunsets at 5:30 or whatever it is. Pitch dark at 6:30. They are both sound asleep now and it's only 7:20pm. :-)
