No, actually I think it's delirium...haven't had any sleep. Had to go back on both sticks yesterday night, about 7pm. My knee buckled and sent copious amounts of pain throughout my leg. :(

I don't like the sound of that :( Please be careful, no one wants to see you hurting more or again. :hugs
 
I enjoyed my nieces and nephews tremendously. However, I could never take them for days on end. I like things quiet and peaceful and that plus kids do not go together. When the kids started to get on my nerves, I'd happily deliver them back to their parents.
I'm not mommy material but I'm an excellent Aunt.
I wasn't fond of being a dad when the two were babies.
I was much more interested when they got difficult and I was much better than their mother at dealing with that stage.
Same when they were teenagers. Some parents seem to forget what it was like to be that age. Maybe I never got past it myself and understood better.:p
I can't have been that bad, they both still come to see me and tell me about their lives which is more than can be said for many parents these days and thankfully, their mother and I are still best friends despite calling it a day regarding the 'relationship'.

Being best friends with an ex is a great (and rare) thing Shad!
 
@007Sean - that same person wants to know how to identify red-legged partridges. Gonna help ? :lau
I looked up his screen name...it explains it all, the meaning of his name, Edwiges; "the one who wants to fight". Nuff said! I remember something about seeing that name before so I did some research.

EDWIGES

LANGUAGE FAMILY:
INDO-EUROPEAN > GERMANIC > WEST GERMANIC > GERMAN
ORIGIN:
GERMANIC
NAME ROOT:
*HAÞUZ WĪG > HADUWIG
MEANING:
star.png

This name derives from Old High German name “Haduwig”, composed of two Ancient Germanic elements: “*haþuz” (battle, fight) and “wīg” (fight, battle, fighter, able to fight), meaning “one who wants to fight”. 1) Saint Hedwig of Silesia (Polish: Święta Jadwiga Śląska), was Duchess of Silesia from 1201 and of greater Poland from 1231 as well as high duchess consort of Poland from 1232 until 1238. 2) Jadwiga was monarch of Poland from 1384 to her death. Her official title was 'king' rather than 'queen', reflecting that she was a sovereign in her own right and not merely a royal consort. She was a member of the Capetian house of Anjou, the daughter of King Louis I of Hungary and Elizabeth of Bosnia.

Actually, only the French spell it that way.

Maybe he thinks he has to live up to his name?
