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

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…

This morning when I got up and came out of the bedroom Tom (cat) came wandering down the hall and towards the door. Naturally as the good obedient servant that I am I followed to open the door. Soon all 4 cats were sitting in the hallway looking out the door with what can only…

I am very proud of myself – today we drove to a school fair. It’s the fact that I drove there – previously we’d have been scouring the bus timetables to see if it would be possible to get there. So a big thumbs up for that! Naturally enough we went straight to the book…

I will be 33 soon, this morning I have to go to the funeral of somebody who had only just turned 31. When I heard the news I couldn’t believe it – my flabber was completely gasted. The news of the death of somebody you know will always draw you nearer to those you love…

I think I’m going to go to bed with a cup of Bedtime Tea and my book (there is also the possibly of a cat). I have 2 [books] beside my bed at the moment – The Gentle Art Of Domesticity by Jane Brocket and Poirot Investigates by Agatha Christie. However the book I’ve been…

This weekend we’re going away. I’m really looking forward to it on two different fronts. The first is that I am going to drive to the airport and park so we don’t have to rely on a taxi at 5.30am or for coming home. So three cheers for me – I’ll be having a panic…

I seem to be procrastinating all over the place! I am making a blanket for what I thought was to be my new niece/nephew (they are 90% sure it’s niece but we’ll wait for the day itself to confirm) when my sister spotted it she has decided that she is going to be the owner…

They are wonderful on the other hand I am not. I do apologise but this is going to be a little whingy/giving out. I have a wonderful penpal who writes to me – If I say more often then I write to her I could be accused of understatement 😦 I think that at the…
