 Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: August 17th, 2010  Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC | My Life | The Job.  6 comments - more welcome!Hello! Remember me? I’ve been exceedingly busy doing a great many things, some interesting, some not (such is life), so here’s a quick update: I have been to Paris, which went something like this: count children onto a bus, set off, travel a bit, count children, arrive at science museum, count children, have a brilliant time, [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 23rd, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC. Leave a commentMr TLC has arrived at a more interesting age. On his last birthday, I suggested that he could spend his days carrying the good folk of Crookes to Woodhouse and back, but apparently he didn’t see himself as that kind of 52. Now he is back in his prime. (I am not currently in my prime, [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 21st, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life. 6 comments - more welcome!Longest day? Not here it isn’t. Some of us are off to bed ridiculously early thank you very much. Going to bed in the daylight is something I associate with childhood, so it seems rather appropriate given the cause of my tiredness. What cause would that be? Someone had a rather sleepless night last night. And [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 11th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life | Random Musings. 2 comments - more welcome!It may be unpatriotic, it may even be treasonous, but I’m going to say it anyway: football bores me to tears. I’ve no problem with other people liking it, nor do I mind the fact that almost everyone else in Eng-er-land has festooned their home/car/bicycle/cat with Eng-er-land flags, I just don’t really want to join in. [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 4th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: TLC. One comment so far - more welcome!I can only conclude that the person who made this has never met a three-legged cat: from graphjam.com Even our cat-phobic neighbour fell under the spell of the furry menace once he only had three legs. Unfortunate? Certainly. But most definitely ad-awww-able. Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 2nd, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: More Cats. 8 comments - more welcome!Today started like so many other days: I woke up and found my furry companion of the last 18 years, George (aka Black Cat) sitting next to me. I got up and stumbled to the bathroom. George galumphed along with me, as was his wont. It being breakfast time, George nommed his morning meal [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 1st, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC. Leave a commentAn evening of impersonation for me today: time to do my best grandmother impression. Mr TLC’s beautiful granddaughter (who really needs a blog name, Baby A just doesn’t fit her anymore) is two today. Where does the time go? I hadn’t seen her for a while and the change was dramatic: from toddler to a very [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: May 9th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: People Watching | The Job. 4 comments - more welcome!We were sitting in a very quiet pub early yesterday evening, waiting for some friends to meet us for a pre-curry drink, when a guy who was sitting at the other side of the room finally stopped having a loud, booming conversation into his mobile phone and started having a loud, booming conversation with his [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: April 13th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: France | My Life | Paris. 6 comments - more welcome!Tunnel related paranoia is much worse than being in an actual tunnel. You know that feeling that you get when the rollercoaster is about to set off? That was me on the Eurostar this morning. However the queasy and uneasy feeling did not last long: we were about halfway through the tunnel before I actually [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: March 11th, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: The Job. 6 comments - more welcome!I didn’t think it existed, but it does, I’ve found it. Found what? Nothing less than the secret spark, the magic dust from Hollywood movies, the miraculous way to grab the attention of all my pupils. I know I’ve found it, because today it happened: I walked down the corridor and turned into a modern day Pied [...] |
