Time Wimey

Gosh. I am finding it decidedly trickier blogging in the school holidays.

I have less space to think. Less time to watch the news or read a paper to get inspired/cross.

I have less time to write, so my posts are rushed. And no time to edit - meaning what I do virtual scribble down is lacking in grammar, littered with bumbling spellings, and worst of all, my own personal bugbear, contains repetitive language.

I have less access to the required equipment. With the elder two knocking about there is a fair amount of sulking goes on about other people being on the laptop or iPad. And it's me that is sulking. I don't get much of a look in. When it's just me and Syd at home, I tend to write on the iPad when he is feeding or sleeping on my lap, and then edit and insert pictures on the laptop when he is safely occupied. With the others here chances are that when I get a few spare minutes that I would normally use to blog, someone is already in the middle of a vital task on the tech I was hoping to use. 'Be done in a minute', usually translates as done 2 minutes after my window of opportunity has closed.

'But how are you writing this?' I hear you question. It's half ten at night is how! I should be in bed as am battling a particularly vicious dose of mastitis and have been pretty poorly, but I needed to snatch a few minutes for myself from somewhere!

Marvel at the intracasies of the Time Transmogrifier.


So I tried inventing a time transmogrifier. I thought an extra bit of time here and there would help, all that i need is to create tiny spheres of chrono bibbits and I would gain the precious blogging moments I need. I made the machine from foil and cardboard and other stuff. I just tried it. It doesn't work. I think the flanges are on backwards.

  1. I hear you my lovely and no amount of Tardis assistance can help. I'm married to a Timey Wimey crazed Whovian and it's been no bloody help whatsoever. In fact while he's buggering about with the time-space continuum I'm attempting to clean octopus stylie for the chance of a few minutes blog time.
    Let me know how the flanges go, maybe they need smaller washers....

  2. I'm no expert, but I reckon you may need to reverse the polarity.

  3. Ouchy I had mastitis when feeding my twins, felt like flu combined with boobs like swollen sore concret, mine was pre internet, bet that would have helped.
    I feel your pain, my two are older but actually more time consuming in their demands for all our techy stuff, or demand shouting at.. "lease I cannot listen to Ed Sheeran 14 times a day when I am trying to write, much as I love his lyrics!"

    If the transmoggidy doodah ever works, fly here and tamper with my time too please!
