So what you're saying is...

Rightso, back to blogging?
Do you think I can do it? Do I think I can do it?

The biggest problem is the whole day to day idea I was trying to keep, it has meant that I now have a massive half empty blog post of days that have gone by and clues for myself to fill in the events of the past... months.

I can cut all that down to this I think:
lots has happened, I didn't fail my continuation Thing (ergo I get to stay in TCD to finish my PhD short of anything awful), still love Odette to bits, hamster still epicly cute, still listen to massive amounts of music, still working in lab/office & forgetting to eat, still cooking things and adding far too much chilli so you can't taste anything properly and still failing to get out of bed after my alarm goes off and missing the real morning hours.

Also still being crap at family-keep-up (a game I've realised I've been failing at for a long time). Although I have to say, was good on Easter Sunday, went back to my dad's and hung out for the evening, was bullied by Alannah (3) and went to see my nana which was all great. Also saw my mam a few weekends ago on a Saturday evening, we had a few glasses of wine and tapas in a place in Ranelagh while she was in Dublin teaching. So haven't been As bad. But still haven't seen my nana&grandad since they had their 50th wedding aniversary... which was ages ago. I know, I suck.

I've no pictures of my own to add to this (in college) but this is my current college PC background:

Pic-er-nic

Well, it's been awhile hasn't it.

Uber stress for Mr. Isaac I'm afraid, massive amount of work for continuation/transfer. But that is mostly behind us now, so on with life and on with blogging!

Last Saturday (9th April) I went out to Odette's, we'd maybe planned on going for a walk but stormy clouds made the walk look risky so instead Odette made a lovely picnic for us and I went to her house and we hung out in the back garden while the sun was out.



It was really lovely, couscous, hummus and carrot and homemade frozen yogurt. Very tasty all round! Other weekends have also come and gone, they all merge in my mind in some ways but I have pictures to prove there were different ones!

Found a really big dead crab on day and left it in a metal hoop

Not too sure why.

Had my birthday at some stage in the past few weekends

either that or I like blowing candles out on cakes.

I was also in London with Odette at some stage

see?

And have spent much time photographing and videoing Nuvola (the products of which are adorable and must be uploaded to YouTube soon)
