Things I know - sucking up the rain edition

I know don't often post twice in one day. I had a giveaway that just had to go live and I couldn't miss things I know. I know you don't want to miss it either -- [both my giveaway and Things I know.]

I know I only let my husband finally buy a new laptop (tonight at 5.30pm , at the Hardly Normal 40% off sale) , to ease my own guilt at spending a lot of time on my new laptop (won not bought).
When I left there at 5.19pm they told me they had 3-4 and wouldn't hold even ONE ! .... 

I don't know how when he got there 10 mins later they had sold 2 - he saw them being purchased and he got the 'floor' stock model. I know they really must be a HOT buy  @ $478. He had to buy it for our business[credit card], I needed to check the specs .


I know WHY he refused to take the feral  children because it has rained all day and they have been WILD ...but they are quiet right now playing with play dough - WHY didn't I think of this earlier I don't know. Pink snowmen and a wooly scarf.

I know my 5yr old boys already make good excuses why they can't come shopping "I've got a bad *cough* *cough* I don't want to spread my germs and make people sick".

Lucky , I know how to bribe one with promise of choosing Aldi's lollies to buy ~ artificial colour and flavour free.

I know the rain is good for the garden & grass and that the farm also got 40mm rain of yesterday so I'll suck it up and not complain.

So what do you know ?

Never miss a post

You did really well to get two posts on a day like that!

Nah, complain away about the rain. It's all relative and when you've got kids cooped up inside then it's definitely okay to want sunshine!

Mine just love to run through the house, bring toys to play with in front of Tv and run through the house leaving a trail of food , drink and bubbles.

I know that I've missed blogging for the past couple of weeks and I'm really enjoying my first 'Things I Know'.

I also know that I too have to bribe a young child to come shopping with me. Strawberry milkshakes do the trick :-)

Our farm loves the rain too so I don't really complain Kellie. My little people love the rain but daddy didn't want them to play in it when i suggested it before bathtime.

I love the rain at night , on a tin or caravan roof (well sort of) ...just not all day with kids running or fighting with each other too.

It's funny how kids seem to go stir-crazy when it rains. It could be sunny and they will be calm even if they are inside most of the day, but as soon as the rains come...
