My Stars.......on stars!!

Dan and Lauren are sitting watching the TV, when there is a story on about space ~

Lauren ~ "Is that a shooting star Dan?"

Daniel ~ "Yeah, maybe, or it could be a meteor"

Lauren ~ "What is a meteor ~ is it a star?"

Daniel ~ "Sort of, I think ~ Dunno!!"

Lauren ~ "So it's a star........."

SHORT SILENCE.........

Lauren ~ "Did you know that stars are not yellow?"

Daniel ~ "No, they are silver ~ "

Lauren ~ "No, they are not.................they are all sorts of colours ~ blue, green, red, orange......"

Daniel ~ "No, .........how do you know they are all colours?"

Lauren ~ "We saw them remember, the other night ~ when we were walking back from dancing ~ they were flashing in the sky!!!!!"

ANOTHER SHORT SILENCE!!

Daniel " (laughing!!) ~ That was a plane Lauren..............!!"

Lauren "Oh yeah ........ "

".........................What colour are they then?"

(DANIEL GETS UP AND WALKS OFF ~ I THINK HE'D HAD ENOUGH OF STARS HA HA !!!)

The 'Lurgy' that I had towards the end of last week and over the weekend has now moved on ~ and I am feeling alot better............................Sadly I seem to have passed it on to my sweet little son, who woke up this morning feeling not so good ~ he feels sick, has a headache and a sore throat and aches all over (yeah, sounds very familiar!!) ~ so I dosed him up and he has been in bed most of the day ~ I am waiting for Lauren to come down with it next. We are a very generous family ~ we do like to share Tee Hee!!!!!!! But, seriously ~ I feel for my poor little chap ~ if he feels half as bad as I did ~ it was not nice!!

I was very proud of myself yesterday ~ I am ever so slightly DIY challenged ~ I can't even put up a shelf and hanging a picture is a serious job!!! Well, I bought a shelf system that goes between the bath and the ceiling and is used to store all the shampoo and bath oil etc ~ all neatly and safely!!
It took me quite a while to put it together ~ but I was soooooo good and followed the instructions to the letter (after I found them in English ~ they were in 68 different languages I swear!!!!) ~ and voila ~ it was done ~ and before I knew it, all the shampoo and bath roomy kind of things were on there ~ all stored and it all looked wonderful!!
I was even more proud of myself when I went in the bathroon before bed, and the thing was still there ~ still looking great ~ I decided that I was now a DIY DIVA after all .....................................
WELL..........off to bed I went AND at about 4 this morning, there was an almighty bang and crash and clang (you get the picture!!) ~ I shot bolt upright in bed, thinking that we were being burgled (by some very noisy burglers....) ~(Dan and Lauren both appeared in the hall too!!) then shot out of bed to see what was going on (I am not brave ~it's just the Ex ~ Police Officer in me coming out ha ha !!!!) ~ once I had checked the living room and made sure that everything was ok ~ I ventured into the bathroom and there was the storage shelf thingy in about 50 pieces in the bath ~ surrounded by all the shampoo and bits and pieces ~ SO ~ I am not a DIY DIVA after all ~ the shelf thingy is ruined ~ the shampoo and stuff is all over the place ~ and I am off to Argos tomorrow to buy a unit that goes under the sink (ready made ~ I just have to bring it home and stick it under the sink!!!) ~ I am so useless ~ it's quite sad really ...........never mind, my Mother always said that everybody is good at something ~ AND ~ when I have worked out what that SOMETHING is ~ I will let you know TEE HEE!!!!
