Things To Make Me Smile (and a few things that annoy me)

general

  • Weather

    Hello there!  Long time no post… I’m fascinated by weather.  I tend to keep an eye on it if we’re ever going away and the difference between predicted and observed is great – how wrong or right did they get it? So what makes me smile?  The internet! Previously the weather was simply something that… Read more

  • Delayed Gratification

    I love love love miserable weather. I think in some places this puts me in the odd category but I don’t mind. So unfortunately for me I am still waiting. I think we would have been happy to have temperatures like this during the summer! Today it’s a bit windy and the leaves are swirling… Read more

  • Go Go Gadget Getter!

    Why oh Why can’t I just let a gadget be released without having to get it?  I bought an iPad with it first came out and I have to admit that I absolutely love it! – I don’t have internet access in work so it’s handy to have hiding away in the handbag 🙂 So… Read more

  • Mornings

    It’s at this time of the year you really can see the seasons change – for the most part over the year they simply slide into one another but not at the moment – it’s almost like one day you are coming home in broad daylight and the next day the sun is setting –… Read more

  • Snow

    If there is one thing that I love it’s SNOW!!  I just noticed that somebody mentioned they had snow and I thought jealously nice for them!  I glanced at the window and realised we had snow too!  I just bounced up and down the hallway and ran out into it.  I’ve been promised we can… Read more

  • Lists

  • Seasons

    I don’t know if it is just because I was slightly more awake this morning and noticed or if this is the first day but it was still dark this morning when I got up. I am a Winter person but I do start to get that feeling when I see Autumn setting in.  Spring… Read more

  • Rain

    I love it!  I love being out in it (especially if I’m prepared for it) but most of all I love the sound of it.  The past two mornings have found me waking to the sound and sight of rain. So for my enjoyment: Read more

  • Jigsaws

    This really is just a reminder for myself – to make sure my desk is fully cleared so that I can put out my jigsaw board – I have bought several but since we got the kittens (who are now almost 2) but I don’t think I’ve made any.  No I tell a lie –… Read more

  • I Love Broadband

    Our broadband went last Wednesday so we had not internets.  Well until I remembered that my little baby, the iBook had dial up on it!  Ok how did we ever survive with dial up?  I know that the pages were a lot more basic and didn’t have as much to load up but there were… Read more
