Första besöket i skolan

Jag och Ellinor på väg hem från första studiebesöket i skolan med Tobias. Stora stora lilla killen. Han var lite ängslig och mammig, men hittad igen kompisarna från sin avdelning och fröken Jocke och blev mycket lugnare. :-)

De fick lära sig lite om reglerna i skolan, leka en namnlek och så fick de välja mellan att rita, bygga med lego och pärla. Ni kan ju gissa vad Tobias valde...! :-D

Efteråt gick vi tillbaka (tvärs över skolgården) till förskolan. Jag hängde in lite kläder på pojkarnas krokar, pratade med ett par av pedagogerna och pussade sen pojkarna hejdå och gick hem med en Ellinor som somnat när vi lämnade skolgården.

Nu en kort vila, sen utrymning av huset för städning. Lunch får jag ta på tur sen promenerar jag tillbaka via förskolan och hämtar pojkarna. Inga extra barn med hem idag, men bättre väder ute så vi skall nog klara oss från fullt lika många världskrig som vi hann med igår (halleluja utelek!). :-)

Little green men


Little green men, my little green men. Those words have taken a different meaning of late. :-)

What?

Super glue.
"for a classic way of life"
Huh? What? "For a classic way of life"?? Is that to say that gluing broken things back together is "classic"? Opposed to... modern? Opposed to progressive?

I love it! :-D

A day well spent

A day when you learn something is a day not wasted. Isn't that what they say?
Tonight S told me Earth had a second moon - I was certain he was trying to fool me (for some unknown reason) so I did as he bade me and googled it.

Wikipedia states - indeed it's not a moon, but the asteroid was initially assumed to be one because of it's path around the sun.

Meet Cruithne - not Earth's second moon.

First char

Oldest son created his first World of Warcraft character the other day. Entirely his creation - "mum, I want to be one of those skeleton dudes", perhaps I should worry about his choice of words there "I want to be.."? 8-)

Initially he wanted to make it a warlock but since that meant he would be wearing a skirt and thus not displaying his skeletal legs he changed his mind and made it a warrior instead. :-D I'm thankful for that since warlocks are the only class I've never played to any level that counts.

I'm quite convinced we won't be playing much with this character since he is many years too young to play WoW still. But we had fun for the better part of an hour just creating the character and walking around finishing the first five or so quests (it was total team work - oldest son did the jumping, youngest son pressed 2 or 3 as required when questing, I did the navigation and reading). 8-)

Kerbal Space Program

Oldest son's rocket.
Above is a space rocket with two engines and an extra powerful booster engine, fuel tank, personnel capsule and not a "nose cone". :-) I had it all carefully explained to me as our oldest son was cutting his craft out of the paper. :-)


So S is playing "Kerbal Space Program" a lot right now. I can tell because it spills over to the result of our kids creative production... :-D I am NOT complaining! :-)


I'm not focussed enough to play anything right now, but I installed the beta for Mech Warriors Online the other night, let's see if I have the energy to read up on it and get it going or not. 8-)
