As Sands Through The Hourglass...



wood = floor!

 

Yeah.  I'm still letting the noodles draw on the walls.   And yes, that's an outlet at about kid finger height.  We've discussed it.  By discussed, of course, I mean that I've done an imitation of someone being electrocuted painfully and with disastrous consequences as an attempt to warn them off.  In terms of safety, though, can I really be faulted?  True, there are outlets at kid finger height and power towels languishing seductively on the floor in easy reach, but the backpack and coat have reflective patches!  Go mom!

It has been suggested to me that, for the younger, I may be making some unwise assumptions about her ability to understand why she should NOT draw on the walls once they are...uh...walls again, as opposed to...scabby old plaster with holes.  Here's hoping!

    SO FUNNY. "Silver Box" on windowsill is an air condition circa stone age that is too heavy for us to move (in other words: we can't be bothered at the moment and are kind of hoping that it just falls out into the yard below all by itself). I have no idea why it appears silver in the picture. Maybe it's the result of light refracting off of dust particles the size of fruit bats.
