Depeche mode and babies

If i like a song, 9.99999 times out of 10 times I like it because of the tune, not the lyrics, that comes afterwards, and because the words are personal to the songwriter, it is hard to take a personal meaning on board for a song...



I have not been a great Depeche Mode fan, I always liked "Enjoy the Silence " though, and recently i bought the singles cd for £2 ( bargain ) if only for the above song !!!

Well the song above 's chorus is

" all i ever wanted"
" all i ever needed"
" Is here in my arms "
" words are very unnecessary"
" they can only do harm "

This is the feeling I have each nite, as I manage to get my daughter to go to sleep in my arms, with some milk, cos she is a very light sleeper, any slight noise will wake her !!

sometimes words just jump up and slap you in the face Eh?? !!

Depeche mode. door hinges, and fish dvd's

We are plagued at the moment, by the Hooray for Fish book and DVD, Darcy luurrrvvveess these SO much, so that if you do not put the dvd on fast enough, she will now shuffle over to the dvd player and starts pressing buttons, to try and get it to turn on ! although she will have it on loop.... watch it 2 or 3 times, then do something else, but if you try to switch the dvd off, then she starts shouting fish like crazy !!

I am thinking about buying finger guards for our doors, but this is costly and i do not want to make our doors look too unsightly, but on the other hand it will stop Darcy from touching the hinge, and either trapping her fingers, or getting covered in oil !!

It's all teeth !!!

Darcy got 2 more teeth at the weekend !!

she proudly showed us last night !! fair play though , she didn't moan too much about it . just got us to play her Hooray for fish dvd

now watch the food bill go through the roof!!

Gas works !!

Last week the gas board,decided we nneded new pipes laying from the mains, so they ripped up part of the patio, and dug a couple of holes, in the yard,

Ok, if the work needs doing, well thats fair, but the dust, incovieniance, and small matter of the clematis (3) being ripped off a fence, was more than a little annoying !!

BUT... on the flip side, it has meant that instead i can paint the fence, which has not been done in over 4 years, and perhaps, we could get a rambling rose instead.?? decisions.....

The problem is the jungle, of Dahlia's, i thought what the hell i will plant about 8... thats eight pots, ... thats the patio covered, and now they are growing.... fast !! plus other new additions, the patio is looking like something from Jack and the Beanstalk !! i'm sure they will look better when they flower !!
