My God

The Duggars are pregnant again.

I particularly am amused by the phrase about their being Quiverful followers... "which teaches that children are God’s blessing and that husbands and wives should happily welcome every child they are given."

Ah, last time I checked, Quiverful followers believed that they were breeding an army for God. Not quite the way to cherish and love your children if you ask me, intending to throw thew before the armies of unbelievers. Hey, it looks like someone with an ounce of PR sense got to the Quiverful website.

I bet the Duggars are the best thing that ever happened to Quiverful. They keep popping up in the news all the time.

List for Mother's Day

- Not get a cold FAIL
- Make sure I have tissues every where cos I am sneezing so much
- put a treatment through my hair for an hour!
- play with Small Fry 15 minutes
- play with The Big V 15 minutes
- play with Cheshirenoir 15 minutes
- lunch at The Manse
- dishwasher
- Try for those 2,000 words unless I....
- nap
- Dr Who (apparently the next two episodes are two-parts, and may be sad/depressing/emotional) so this requires 1.5 hours

I am amused that for the past few weeks, every time I have a window of opportunity where I get to relax and do something nice, I could write, read, watch Dr Who... or nap. You can guess what wins every time. :-) One day I'd like to not choose a nap!

Today was very very very busy. We did everything on the list and more, except my 2,000 words. VERY BUSY. But the house is very clean. The boy's and our rooms are all vacuumed. It amused me to note that only a few years ago, the amount of cleaning we did today would have counted as an annual event. Now it's more of a weekly event! Oh how things have changed!
