Good Things Friday
G had a cold last weekend so he missed out on all the good things … and was not too happy about it. While I was out partying, he stayed home and tidied up our storage cage so it was easier to get my bike in. He was very bored by the end of the…

Good Things Friday
MY birthday It was my birthday this week, and along with that came the obligatory eating. My Dad rang me up last Friday “I’m ringing for your Mum, she wants us to have lunch on Sunday. Can you book somewhere” Cue me trying to find somewhere decent, convenient and open for Sunday lunch with room…

Good Things Friday
I know NaBloPoMo is finished but it’s Friday and I just had to do a good things post. TRAVEL … AND COMING HOME If you’ve been reading my blog, you’ll know I’ve been travelling for a month which was exciting, fascinating, awesome, but it’s also good to be home. I love to see new places…

I am home!
E and I arrived home late last night. G is in the UK visiting clients. One advantage of flying in late is that we could just go straight to bed, and being tired, get a decent night’s sleep. That gives a good kickstart to getting over jetlag. It’s 8:50 am here and 10:50 pm in…

A little catchup
Life has been frustrating lately. I feel like the last three months have been one niggly health issue after another. No one thing has been serious but I feel like I’m constantly losing days to various ailments. On Tuesday I had one of the worst bouts of vertigo in years. It came on very suddenly…

Wanting all the things
I had a cold last week which put a damper on many of my normal activities. Luckily I wasn’t so sick that I had to go to bed, I just avoided too much physical activity and going out in public. So no running, no church, no Alpha which started last weekend, no race, no volunteering…

Around here …
On the weekend, I hit the read all button on my Feedly. I was browsing through, thinking wow, there are a lot of unread posts, then I remembered I don’t have to read everything that comes through there. Now I have a fresh start and can enjoy reading new posts without being distracted by the…
