'Blood bubbles'

Top Tip:  When cutting one's own hair, one method would be to use a mirror - yes, that would certainly work!  Still another way is to use another set of eyes.  Children are usually to be found loitering around watching one's every move anyway and so they may be the obvious choice.

Whilst using the clippers to cut my hair today, I employed Kyle, asking him, is there any more?  Have I missed any, etc.  I found that by getting him to touch my head where there were still clumps of hair, I was able (eventually) to cut my hair completely.  Unfortunately, whilst doing so, I must have accidentally caught an old wound and 'nicked' it and caused it to bleed again, or in Kyle's words, "Daddy, your 'Blood bubble' is melting"!

Super-hero.


Curium jump., originally uploaded by Raveydv.

Just lately, 'Pinky' has been insisting that he is a 'Super-hero'. i don't know where he has got this from, must be something he's picked up in nursery. He seems to think that he can leap from one furniture item to another, well... actually he can, but I'm sure it's just luck that he hasn't hurt himself yet. Problem is, he seems to think that he cannot be hurt, which is a little worrying. I can't help wondering, was I as much of a pain when I was that age? I wonder if my mother and father used to be on the edge of their seat, as I am most of the time?

Oh well, I guess he'll learn the hard way, just hope it's not too hard!
