FFS Friday/Things I Don't and Do Know- Cats and Kids

It is that time of the week again and the good news is I have found my misplaced ranty pants and I am good to go with a good old fashioned whinge after a few weeks of not finding much to whine about.

I DO NOT KNOW WHY-

We got a kitten called Shiraz.  Ok I do, she is such a little sweetheart and very cute, the kids love her and apart from scratching the lounge she is pretty perfect.  However she came with the name Shiraz.  Nothing wrong with that it is very cool except for when the kids ask me in the supermarket in a crowded check out line how you spell Shiraz. Or when we get home and the dogs have pushed open the back door and I run around calling "Shiraz where are you" or "I need to find Shiraz"  Luckily she has always been inside she is obviously just trying to make me look bad.

Speedy will not sleep in his cot.  Actually he will not even lay in his cot full stop.  He is currently using the lounge room as his bedroom. " Whatever works" has and always will be my motto.

Christmas stuff needs to be in the shops already.  Actually there has been stuff around for a good 3 months already but now it is getting serious.  It is annoying the hell out of me.  As per usual the topic of Christmas day is already a hot topic within both sides of our families.  Enough said there.

People cannot drive or park their cars properly.  I have said it before and I will say it again- stay out of the fast lane unless you are going fast, and when parking on the street do not take up 2 spots when there is clearly room for 2 cars.

I am so excited for the football tonight when Cronulla has zero chance of winning against Manly.  Things will be tense at our place tonight and when the kids start spitting out swear words there will be no question as to where they got them from.  #upupcronulla

THINGS I DO KNOW

Finally after months of chaos both boys will be at swimming lessons at the same time on the same day.

At approximately 315am I finally completed level 213 of Candy Crush.  I have been stuck on this level for about 6 weeks.  Which is awesome although considering the amount of time I have been sitting on my ass playing you would think I would have nailed the whole game weeks ago.

I hate taking the kids for needles.  Although it was nice to see just how much Speedy has grown (2kg and 5cm) and he had no side effects so all good until the 4 month needles.

I have jumped on the cider bandwagon.  I have only had one thanks to Speedy inheriting his brother's psychic ability to wake up as soon as the top is popped off the bottle of anything alcoholic. I did enjoy the one I had and cannot wait to enjoy some more!!

That is it for me,  Linking up with the delightful A Parenting Life for Things I know and Dear Baby G for a long awaited FFS Friday!!

  1. LOL at a cat named Shiraz !!
    What's with Christmas hurtling towards us at the speed of light - it's just WRONG !
    We will be flicking between AFL and NRL tonight - I am sure a few choice words will leave my mouth and A will give me the frown of disapproval because I am more educated and should find better words to use !!!!
    Sorry to hear Speedy won't sleep in his cot but I'm with you - whatever works is good !!
    Have the best weekend and enjoy the game.

  2. Too funny on the cat's name. I will not be watching the NRL, unless of course the Cats are playing like crap, which they probably will because I turned down dinner with friends so I could stay at home and watch the footy.

    I know my babies never slept in their cot either. Glad I only spent money on one. They too loved sleeping in the lounge room during the day which I didn't mind so much because it saved me walking up the stairs to check on them. Actually even as we speak the three year old is asleep on the couch. MOTY right here I tell you!

    Sending some fairy wishes and butterfly kisses your way lovely, thanks for joining in

  3. I am so not ready for Christmas... was jarred by the sight of Christmas lights in Kmart last week... WTF! I learned by baby number 4 (yep it took me that long) to coax/cajole/bribe hubby or my mother to take baby for her needles. I just couldn't do it. I can breast feed til my nipples fall off, I will stand swaying to Nana Mouskouri with a sick baby until the sparrows start their early morning chorus but I just cannot do the needles. It kills me.

  4. Just found your blog and it made me laugh. You're so right - people (except for you, me and probably all of your readers) can't drive. Don't get me started on Christmas. And all pets should have interesting names. Our last dog was a dalmatian called Nelson Mandela because he believed that black and white can live together.

  9. I love cider too - VERY refreshing on a hot day. And go you getting past level 213. I've been stuck on lowly level 65 for ages now and there seems to be no breakthrough in sight...
