Probable cause: too many hours sitting at my desk, something that was on the agenda again today. Hmm. My solution was a spot of DIY. I pulled out the unused bookshelf that lurks under the bed, popped it on top of a couple of open [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: February 16th, 2012 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life. 5 comments - more welcome!“Life isn’t about waiting for the storm to pass, it’s about learning to dance in the rain.” Anonymous It seems such a short lifetime ago that I blogged on my teachery site about how good it was to get back to normal.

We started the half [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: October 25th, 2011 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC | My Life. 2 comments - more welcome!It’s seemed like a long time, but finally, the end is in sight. Back in June, when his well and truly broken leg was pinned together, Mr TLC was told it would be 4-6 months before the frame could be removed – assuming everything went well. He had five months fixed in his head, [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: August 25th, 2011 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Mr TLC | My Life. 2 comments - more welcome!Mr TLC starts to get mobile, including walking from the kitchen to the living room using only one crutch. Result. This momentous step forward marks Mr TLC’s return to being a maker of copious cups of tea. Mr TLC’s latest x-ray shows signs of the bones starting to heal. Woohoo!

Oh no. Mr TLC obviously felt that Super Mum had not tested the services of the NHS rigorously enough, so he decided to take on a spot of testing himself. It started with a bang, the sort of bang made by a man who [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: June 4th, 2011 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: Food | My Life. 3 comments - more welcome!It’s the start of June, which means that Mr TLC’s granddaughter is 3. Where does the time go? It also means that I get to play at baking birthday cakes. Actually, this year I get to do it twice – once for the family do, once for the kids’ party in a few days [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: May 31st, 2011 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life. 7 comments - more welcome!A glance at my sidebar indicates a rather quiet May. A glance at my life indicates quite the opposite, the last month has been somewhat eventful. It started quietly enough. In fact, in a nice bit of temporal symmetry, the month both began and ended with school holidays. During the first one, I did [...] Posted by: Lois Lindemann on: October 31st, 2010 Posted in: Life Tags for this post: My Life. 2 comments - more welcome!I’m not exactly renowned for my highly developed sense of time, even at the best of times. Consequently there’s been a few issues over the years, especially when the clocks change, such as the time I got through all of Sunday without realising it was *that* day.

Leave a comment“It’s a bit foggy,” says Mr TLC, understating wildly. “Take care.” I set off and start to play hide and seek with other drivers in the fog. Some of them have their lights on. Others have opted to present me with a higher level of challenge. As is the way with these things, the [...] |
