I really can’t overstate the importance of finding a comfortable position when performing domestic duties. There’s much to be said for the inside of the clothes horse, for example.

What’s not to love about Spot?
(Except the price tag on his books.)

The only light source in this image was the TV.
A second LCD features in this one.
It’s OK, he spends at least 80% 10% of his awake time not engaged with these pulpits of Satan educational devices.

She loves books, animals (especially dogs), peeking out through the curtains while she falls asleep, asymmetry and shoes.
Sometimes, she likes waking up.
Farewell, achalasia
For anyone who’s following along: my 2.5-year+ journey with achalasia appears to be almost over. This will mean eating/drinking normal portion sizes without nausea/vomiting/lying down, which will dramatically improve my nutrition, energy levels, usefulness at home and a bunch of other stuff. Yay!
Details: I found out this week that I’ve been scheduled for surgery on Monday week (24 June). The procedure will be a Heller myotomy and if all goes to plan, I’ll be in hospital for 2 days, off work for a few days, eating purees for a month, and then… all good! I’ll probably need to be on anti-reflux drugs for the rest of my life, but I’ve already been on them for a couple of years, so it could be worse.
I’ll keep you posted, no doubt. Will try to spare you the gory details.

It must be very difficult to live with this sort of view.

The thing about biscuits is they can’t be too much smaller than your head.

Speaking of Daddy’s truck: where else would you sit for lunch after falling in a muddy puddle? (Clearly Mr 3 does not take after his beloved Peppa Pig.)
x100.365 #98: I play Daddy’s truck garage?
I’ve been parking my car downstairs in the garage lately. Within seconds, this little man – fresh out of the bath, usually – jumps in, determined to extract a few minutes of play in “Daddy’s truck”.
