My life? Is pretty dull right now. I've tidied *lots* and the house looks rather uncluttered (most of it anyway...) - sadly this only highlights how much cleaning I need to do. And how I need to go through all those bag/boxes/drawers/cupboards etc where I have been hoarding stuff. Woe.

Also I've been looking after the children of course. Impish Girl is better, if not quite well yet, and I'm trying to teach Little Miss M how to research (she has a project due after the holidays). The Cherub is just cute and adorable, learning new words every day and getting into *everything*! (Ahhhh! And you do not want to know how quickly she can get up the stairs...)

I've worked a little on my BtVS/Doctor Who crossover ficlet (quite possibly worst plotbunny ever), but not even that I've had time to finish. The only thing I've managed to do is begin (re-)posting one of my earliest fics The Summer After on

gen_storyteller (Summary: A few weeks post-NFA Giles meets some old acquaintances. But where do their loyalties lie these days? And what exactly do they want with Giles?).

Oh - and Arbitrar of Quality has started posting Firefly reviews. Knowing the FF verse very well, his reviews are very indepth and interesting, if anyone wants to check them out. I'll probably link to them all, what with there being a sadly limited amount...

Serenity (the pilot).
The Train Job.

I feel your pain, last night I cleaned out and re-stocked my pantry. And then I collapsed on the bed.

*hands you medal*

I've been having a go at that and finding stuff that has me shaking my head in disbelief over why I kept it in the first place. Best of luck and I hope Impish Girl is fully recovered soon.

My problem is that partly I get *hugely* nostalgic, and partly there's always stuff that might come in handy in the future - what with children and all... *sigh*

Thank you! She's had a temperature for *days* now, poor thing. Thankfully she's a very bouncy sort of character, so since she's feeling better she's almost back to full silliness! ;)

Girlfriend, I feel your pain. I was just thinking this morning how I need to clean out all the shoes I've accumulated and never wear, all the clothes I can no longer fit into, and all the crap in the downstairs closet that I don't even know what's in there. Yikes!

Good luck!

And for me it is of course all dependant on me keeping the house tidy (with children and husband around!) in the first place. (I adore my husband, but he is not tidy.) *sigh*

Well done for managing to tidy with the children at home. I'm going through boxes of fanfic at the moment in an attempt to throw most of it away (cos I can read in bed on the laptop now and don't need printouts) and tidy our bedroom somewhat. But I get distracted by actually reading the stories again.

I don't often hear Numberjacks - Bethan is in charge of the TV and so they watch the Disney Channel (which I didn't even realise we got!).

Thanks! Still not sure *how* I did it...

I can imagine! (I'm presuming that you're keeping copies on your harddrive though? Since sometimes stuff just vanishes.)

Not sure if that's better or worse! ;) Although the upside to Cbeebies is no adverts!

Oh yes, very few fics will be thrown away without being saved on the HD, and I'm keeping some in printed form (the ones that are my very favourites).

And no American accents/Americanisms all the time.

I went through my bedroom last fall and cleaned out/ organized. I was much happier! I could find stuff! Of course, I need to do it all again, not to mention the guest room/ office. :( My closets are a good example of entropy!

I wish I was that organised... I don't even have printed copies of all my own fic!

I am *so* glad we don't have any of the American channels! :)

It's like Buffy's house - every time it's been tidied a demon comes and breaks stuff!
