Another half term holiday completed! We didn't do anything particularly exciting, but I tried to make it a bit special for Marianna - we had a picnic, a movie night, had the paddling pool out one day, etc. One day she had free reign of the remote to play all her favourite songs on YouTube and dance along, which reignited the ol' 'everything she listens to is completely inappropriate' arguments...
At the moment she's obsessed with Melanie Martinez, Billie Eilish, and Ashnikko. Because they all dye their hair/wear wigs, dance, dress up, and act out fantasy scenarios... I kind of feel like if I make a big deal about the lyrics being unsuitable it would only draw her attention to them and make them seem all the more exciting / glamorous or whatever for it. As it is she's never asked what any of it means and instead is like, can we watch the Melanie Martinez one where she's a doll? (Dollhouse) Or can we see Ashnikko when she's the pirate? (Deal With It)
I dunno, I feel like it's done way less damage than some dumb video she watched about haunted chucky cheese and ended up afraid of all her own teddy bears for a month...
Other than entertaining, I've managed to get some more UFO research done and list a bunch of stuff on ebay. It sometimes amazes me our house is always so cluttered when we're always getting rid of things!!
On the blog I posted a guide to Curli Girls dolls, my reading list for May, Welsh UFO sightings for 2019, and Just Seventeen magazine scans from 19/06/1985.
