Single mother folding washing, fruit rotting in the bowl, flies buzzing around the child’s cooking/slime experiment, cat eating the last of the bread, children glued to their screens.
“Zen, what are you watching?”
“Some highlights from the IT movie.”
“I don’t want you watching that movie, you’re too young, it will give you nightmares.”
“The boy in it is a Virgo.”
“No.”
“He’s a Virgo like you mum.”
“NO, you are not watching it.”
“Worth a try, mum.”

I know you’re really busy saving the world by watching people playing Minecraft on Youtube all day, but I’d like to ask a favour. Could you please catch and keep the following Pokemon people/creature/alien/thingies/whateverthehelltheyare?
Cleandyourbedroom a saurus
Oddishwasher won’t empty itself
Clefairy liquid over the sink and wash the dishes
Remove the Vileplume from your sister’s walk on floor-drobe
Meowth and change the kitty litter while you’re at it
Machop up some veggies for dinner
Rapidash to the bathroom to hang up your sisters’ wet towels
Slowpoke the dunny brush around the toilet
Weedle your way out of whinging about housework no more
Thank you great light of my life
Mother dearest

Posted: March 21, 2011 Filed under: Single | Tags: deed poll, Lou Lou, Louise, Music, Single Mum, Skip To My Lou, theme songs 2 CommentsMy name is Lou or more accurately Lou Lou. A friend told me that Lou Lou is a euphemism for vagina. Actually I was christened Louise (yes, I was christened in a posh frock which I did a big wee all over), but people only called me that when I had done something wrong; I got used to LOUISE being yelled in a cranky tone of voice. So 15 years ago I changed it to Lou Lou by deed poll. So I’m a grown woman with a little girl’s name. I have three theme songs. Don’t Bring Lulu because my sister was well behaved and I was a wild child so I tend to go a bit nuts at social functions. The second one is Louise, my dad used to sing it to me when I was little. Only my family get away with calling me Louise (just). And I’m a single mother, so this song below is another one of my theme songs.
SKIP TO MY LOU
I lost my partner, what’ll I do?
I lost my partner, what’ll I do?
I lost my partner, what’ll I do?
Skip to my Lou, my darlin’.
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou,
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou,
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou,
Skip to my Lou, my darlin’.
I’ll find another one, prettier than you,
I’ll find another one, prettier than you,
I’ll find another one, prettier than you,
Skip to my Lou, my darlin’
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou,
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou,
Lou, Lou, skip to my Lou,
Skip to my Lou, my darling
