Currently...#34

Hello Lovelies!

Is it my go?  Is it my go?  Yay!!! It's my turn to co-host this week's Currently again together with the gorgeous-ness on a stick that is Lindsey from Ot and Et.  Exciting news this week! Randalin from Harvesting Kale has had her baby!! A little girl! We wish her all the best and send her so much love.  Last week Colleen from The Mommy Panda was in cohoots and didn't she do a marvellous job, but like I say, yay!  It's back to me again!

If you don't know the drill essentially you just use the given themes for the week or create your own and let everyone know what's Currently going on with you!

This week's themes are: Shovelling, Ignoring, Inhaling, Hugging, Throwing...

Isn't shovelling a scandalously tricky one?  I'm trying to decide on an angle I could approach this from...have I been shovelling food?  Undoubtedly!  But no, I want to think of something a little better than that... my approach to tidying up the Mini-Monkey's bedrooms is usually centred around shovelling; I go in with a big plastic box, pick up everything that's on the floor in a fashion not dissimilar to a shovel, and squeeze it away in a cupboard somewhere.  Which then usually explodes onto Mr Husband at a later date - ha!

I am ignoring Valentine's Day tomorrow. I may be a hideous old misery, but I hate it. I find it saccharine sweet and sentimental. I've always preferred to do nothing to celebrate, or to do something so understated it doesn't count. I think this year our plan is to sit together on the sofa and watch a film, which we do most Fridays anyway. I don't need a stuffed bear to show me I'm loved. 

I've been inhaling more than my fair share of damp morning air. Every day it seems to rain lately and every day I sniff it up. Especially when it does it sideways into my face. I've also been inhaling the delicious scent of my Mum's tea wafting through from the East Wing. Why does food someone else has cooked always smell so much better?

Wiggles and I have a thing about hugging, I want a hug more often than she's willing to provide one. She knows this, she uses it to her advantage. I say "Can Mama have a hug?" She hugs the nearest toy and looks cheeky. I say "Not the toy! Mama!" She laughs like she's won. Cheeky imp. Thankfully Biscuit is always willing to give me some cuddles. Yay!

After a boozey night out at the start of the week the hunt is on to discover who was throwing up! Somebody did a sick in Tilly's downstairs loo and did a drunk person's job of cleaning up. In that they did really well, but Tilly's house is cleaner than a operating theatre so she was alerted. The hunt is on to discover the mystery sicker-up. Nice choice of theme topic, right? 

I got to choose next week's themes, which was so much fun and a huge honour. I felt a bit like the Queen, cutting a ribbon or launching a boat. I deliberated for ages but decided on:

Next week: Snapping, Stopping, Spending, Starting, Skipping...
