Because I am watching the news right now and there isn’t much going on in the world to smile about…….
1. One of my son Jonah’s godfather’s has offered to take him to the Easter Show - Jonah, aged 6 is a veteran. Heath, aged 28 is not. Quite a Sucker (a lovely sucker but one nonetheless)
2. On a rare outing (I’ve been very sick, that post was taken down for reason’s that will become apparent in time) I had my daughter (aged 2) and was carrying a number of bags. I kid you not, she flew into a kiddie designer boutique, had a look around, found a top she liked and proceeded to undress in the middle of the shop and had the attendant put the top on her. The fun began when we tried to take the top off her. No. Way. Known. With my depleted energy levels and inability to successfully negotiate with her (i.e. rip the top off her), I had to fork out. Here is the funny part.. it cost $120. Mum’s a Sucker!
3. This isn’t funny, just plain weird (to some). At times I have to share my make up with my husband. Maybe that is funny. It’s because when he works for Sky News, they don’t have a make up artist so he has to do his own. So he gets into my Shu umura - he has his own sponge - and now, unbenowkns to moi, he had found some Mac powder and brush. Now, I use my brush for a multitude of uses - bronzer, blush and for eyelids. I love my brush and I have a new one thanks to Saskia having put the last one in the toilet. So when I couldn’t find my beloved (and expensive) brush today, I went a little tropo. No one claimed to know where it was, so I used a much less capable old ratty thing and went about my day. You’ll never guess where I found it? In said husbands car. When I asked him EVER SO NICELY! why he denied knowledge of this, this morning when I was tearing the house appart screaming ‘where is my brush, has anyone seen my brush’, he said ’sorry darling, I didn’t know you meant THAT brush’. So now we have new boundaries around my things - he is to ask before removing anything that is clearly MINE! Mmmm, reading that back makes me sound like I may have a few issues going on there……. looking like I’m a Sucker - again (but I’m aportioning some of the suckering to Brad for taking the makeup thing too far).
BUT SUCKER OF THE WEEK, HAS TO GO TO FIJI - Good on you Fiji! Don’t like a democracy? Oh, just go and throw everyone out of the country that upholds it. Thank thank thank thank thank GOD we didn’t buy that island to build that resort there. THANKYOU!
