An aerial view of the Rock of Cashel in the snow.

A blanket of snow covers the Rock of Cashel. South Tipperary has become a winter wonderland this morning!

The Rock of Cashel, or Carraig Phádraig, is undoubtedly one of Ireland’s most iconic monuments with well more than 1500 years of stories.

It pleases me no end that my daughter only pronounces "donkey" like Shrek does.

Never been talked out of buying something faster than by my daughter telling me the brown furry coat i was trying on looked like a hedgehog. IT ABSOLUTELY DID.

Interesting parenting development in that the very nearly 6 year old got into my bed and spent 3 hours just periodically saying "presents" to me in my sleep, in what I can only assume is subliminal messaging.

I miss how dating used to be. You didn't have to use Tinder. You could just acquire a toad to carry around from the swamps. If you wanted to kiss him & turn him into a prince, you could. And if not, you still had a nice toad companion. Simpler times.

Next level: I have bought a table runner now. And a little jug! God help me, Carolyn Donnelly stuff is just so appealing to the 41 year old irish woman.

I submit a pair of sticky fingered children for the exercise, who by the way, call me 4 different things and I now just answer to any vague muh+ma/my noise.

Resetting my password to this place feels a lot like I feel when I go home for a few days and it's all familiar but also strange and I've forgotten a lot of names sooooo I guess it's time for a nice bag of chips and a stroll about town?

Remember who did this. It wasn’t immigrants. It was white Irish men. Destroying a city for their own racist agenda. Fuck the far right.

Gonna do what my mother does when there's a flood in Veneto or somewhere a few hundred km away, and ring to see if she's alright there in Leitrim with riots going on in Dublin.

My Christmas decor is more "What I Got at Seán Beirne's Spar in 1992 vs how it is now pritt-sticked together with a bit of thread to replace the original hanging loop and I love it more than my engagement ring".

Christmas decor influencers be all "what I got at expensive shop vs how I styled it" and then just plonk it on a table. Ok?

Given how often my shower curtain falls, guessing all those girlies hanging really heavy garlands on extendable shower curtain rails are going to be making content about their sore heads instead.

Ah reminding me of when one of my son's doctors questioned the size of his head and then remarked "but the mother also has a big head". Yeah maybe Italians just have small heads, didn't consider *that* did ya?

I have a whole pile of mysteries like this. E sometimes uses clothes to communicate with me, but the meaning can be "cold" or "go" and he can get quite agitated if I try to take off something or put on something when he has something else in mind.

Actually this one sucks a lot less than the last two at least but the bar is so, so low with popes and their shitty actions/statements so that's not saying much.

Fair dues to Francis for almost telling the truth: we don't want anyone getting ideas about gender definition (because that would further undermine all the 'justifications' the church makes for subjugating women/having only men in power etc etc).
