SOL's view: December 2014
http://solsview.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Wednesday, December 31, 2014. And so the last day of 2014 dawns hot and humid. And still. Did I mention there is no airconditioning in this house? But if there is no breeze blowing outdoors there isn't much air movement indoors. The only fan just stirs the hot air about. As fans do. The Christmas tree is up. Yeah! Squint hard, you might see it. That one might have been difficult to adopt*. Niece took her first flight to return to her ...

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Monday, November 17, 2014. It occurs to me . That it has been a while since I last wrote. Quite a lot seems to be happening at once! Niece had her Senior Formal last month. It was Hallowe'en themed. It wasn't a full on thing, dress was Hallowe'en themed, smart casual. We bought a new dress for her. And in typical fashion, things didn't go to plan while we were getting her ready! We take this to mean that we will choose a suburb and se...

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Thursday, May 28, 2015. I think I blinked. I don't know where the time has gone! I didn't realise my last post *listens for bugle* was so long ago. And by multipage I mean about five. Including table of contents. Ha! I checked with her the following Tuesday but she told me that she didn't have to sit in solitary. I think I might follow this up with her teacher. At least though it goes toward the assessment the disability liaison offic...

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Friday, October 17, 2014. Looks like I've lost another week. How does time manage to fly by so fast? I simply don't know. I blink and it's days later. Jerome has been a . well, almost a different cat. I don't know why. He runs about wanting me to play with him. That is, chase. And feed him. And he tolerates pats from strangers. And YOWL! Demand, demand, demand. He's so vocal lately! Almost like a different cat. Still haven't figured o...

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Thursday, March 19, 2015. Someone has had three hip replacements. It was part of a news article. MOTH thinks he's overdone it. He's only got two. Oh I forgot to mention the GM got the boot did I? Well How remiss of me. I still have too much fortnight left over at the end of my budget. On paper it looks great. In reality, not so good. But I know I'm ready for nappage right now. Right. Now. Damn. Thursday, March 12, 2015. Welcome to the...

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Monday, June 22, 2015. Darn My glasses need cleaning. But there is nothing I can seem to be able to do to get them clean. I don't know what the problem is, I have the spray and a cloth. But they won't clean. I'm at my wits end. Not that that takes much these days. Niece's teacher is worried. I've tried to point out to Niece that ALL THE ADULTS she has contact with have tried to tell her this behaviour is not on. All three of t...I've ...

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Saturday, July 18, 2015. And coming from out of the blue like that, it hurt. It hurt a lot. But it's okay, I can understand their frustration and anger at their own situation and I can forgive them for that. But that didn't stop the fact that the words hurt. She doesn't help with dinner preparation any more and hasn't for a while. Because I got tired of telling her she needs to wash the potatoes after they're peeled and before the...

SOL's view: What a shame I have to go back to work

A column of amusement. Or life in the mediocre middle class fast lane. Wednesday, July 15, 2015. What a shame I have to go back to work. My my time flies. It didn't seem that long ago that I posted my last post *queue dogs howling*. Not a lot has happened here. Or maybe it has. I really don't know. It just all seems so . normal. For here. But Niece managed to get to Movieworld after all. Her behaviour had improved that much. Elder took her along and it seemed she had a good time. Elder seems to be improv...
