Entry: The Mommy Life: Flu Season and Poetry Thursday, June 21, 2007



I've been sick with flu the past few days: headache, stuffed sinuses, raw throat, giddiness. DH confessed to being sick last week and I must have caught it from him. Thankfully, Jack has been spared.

Jack's been ever more brilliant since he turned one. He has been a sponge, saying 'zebra' after his grandma, dancing, shhing, putting his friend Paddy back into his house (the cupboard), drawing very abstract art.

As for me, I have started writing poetry again: 4 today, 3 yesterday. Something about fever makes me hungry to write. Plus, there is a global warming poetry competition going on and I'd like to win a nice fountain pen for my Dad.

Meanwhile I am sporting a new look. I call it Frenchy, DH (and friends) call it country. :) It's been styled a little better now. I'll go with Frenchy.

Hehe thanks Jude. I write with a rather dark SF slant so mainstream usually doesn't like it. I will still try. Might win a nice fountain pen for me Dad.

Jack drew a volcano the other day!

...damn; I'd love to read some of it. Any chance you'll share it with us? Please?

Ditto Jack's volcano drawing...pretty please with sugar on it?
