I already know why I don’t like Nondays
In keeping with our barely-there-weekend, we’ve had a couple of non-days around here. Jack has been sick and waily - he makes a kind of coo-ing noise when he breathes when he’s sick; I’m never sure if he’s just trying to convince us he really is sick or if it’s something I should be worried about. He doesn’t have any trouble breathing when he’s well though, and even when he’s sick, his colour’s usually good. He and Toby are sitting watching television as I write, and Toby is copying the coo-ing - which is half-cute and half-irritating because, really, one doing it is enough.
We did very little all day yesterday, although George and Freddy did go to ju-jitsu in the evening, and while they were there I went to pick up an Imac from a freecycler and walked Cassie. When we got back to the school where ju-jitsu happens, everybody coming out made a huge fuss of her, and she was in heaven with all the attention.
Today we’ve done not much more than yesterday; George in particular has had a rough day, with several wobblies today and one full-blown meltdown. He doesn’t want to go to SJA Cadets tonight; he says he’s not up to it. I don’t know if he’s right but I don’t think an early night will do him any harm. Barney’s going though, so someone (i.e. Scratchy) will still have to go out.
Toby and Jack have had a bath (before dinner) because Jack needed it and there was no hope of keeping Toby out even if I’d wanted to. I cut Toby’s hair before he got in; it was so long it was getting in his eyes.
I have, as mentioned in my tweets, upgraded my WordPress installation to 2.3. I’d been running 2.1, and there were lots of changes between that and 2.2, so lots of little fiddly things needed sorted out, but I think I’ve found them all now. If you notice something that isn’t working, let me know.
We’ve done 15-item-pick-ups in various bedrooms and both dogs have been fed and trained. Barney and George are playing a game in the kitchen - something which looks remarkably similar to Yahtzee, though they insist they made it up. Is it bedtime yet?
