Education?
Have noticed a distinct lack of anything remotely educational in this blog lately. So thought I’d try and rectify that, and list all the neat stuff Myf has been learning in the last couple of weeks.
A few new words added to the vocabulary.
Counting how many times in one day that Mom says ‘bloody’ about something.
Calculating the spread value of a box of lego 45cm long by 28cm wide and filled approximately 8cm deep, give answer to the nearest single decimal place, allowing for extra coverage under the rug as well as on top of it. If it doesn’t reach the skirting boards, factor in the addition of a box of cuisinaire rods, the Barbie accessories and the tub of pattern blocks.
Count how many times Mom says “bloody” when she sees the results of the experiment and calculate the percentage increase caused by said experiment over a standard day’s worth of “bloody”s.
Read the directions on how to assemble a 600mm wide kitchen unit. Collect (when Mom isn’t looking) all tools listed in the instructions and put them in a nice neat pile on Mom’s computer chair.
Start a bar chart for the “bloody”s when she can’t find her drill bits and screwdriver.
See if Piglet’s scream really is enough shatter glass by removing, at every available opportunity, which ever toy she is quietly playing with.
Test Mom’s patience to the limit by adopting a ‘Kevin and Perry’ style teenage attitude and do things whenever she is so buried under kitchen stuff that she can’t extricate herself in time to stop the bloodshed.
Ok - that backfired. Am now more pissed off than I was at the start of this. And the best bit? My builder just went to get his hair cut. He is so dead when he returns…
(edited to remove password - have cheered up now so thought I’d share)
