As predicted the two weeks flew by and I attempted at one stage to write down my achievements but the first few days of January are a bit of a blur as the weather packed up and I didn’t achieve what I’d wanted.
I’m really glad I took those three days off before Christmas as I [...]

Religious differences
Posted in Uncategorized on 30 September, 2009 | 2 Comments »
I wonder how christian friends would react if I started sending them emails about my spiritual beliefs? It never ceases to amaze me that one friend in particular seems to assume that either 1) I’m christian or 2) I don’t mind receiving religious emails. Up to now I haven’t responded but I’m wondering whether I [...]
Categorising
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged categories, tyre, work on 28 August, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
I wonder if I’ll have the time this weekend to go over my uncategorized posts to try and figure out what a category might be.
In the meantime I’ve got 2 weeks’ worth of Spanish homework to do, as well as the usual professional blog post search and housework, etc etc.
Oh, and a flat tyre to [...]
Dental woes
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged belly dancing, dentist, Spanish on 26 August, 2009 | 1 Comment »
Well, I thought after yesterday’s completion of the root canal that that would be my last visit to the dentist for a while. How wrong was I!
After the root canal I had an appointment to see the hygienist. She was very good, explaining everything, and pointed out how bad my gums had got from gum [...]
Sewing? Me?

While belly dancing I’ve often thought of wanting a better costume – an actual costume, rather than just a skirt, some random top and a coin scarf. Our belly dancing teacher has got us making bits and pieces to try and get us looking like a dance troupe and I have bought a couple of items [...]
Peeves

It’s been a day of them – things that annoy or just make me think “what b.s”.
First it was following a slow driver, a woman, who insisted on brushing her hair and at one point actually took both hands off the wheel to fluff her hair. What is it with these women? I followed another [...]
WordPress hassles

Can anyone tell me how to do columns in a blog post? I lined up a column as best I could and it looked all good in the editing box but after publishing it it’s all over the place! AND I got the varying font sizes again too! It’s so frustrating. The visual box should [...]
Not impressed
Posted in home, tagged customised content, logging in, news, Stuff.co.nz on 9 March, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
The local news website, www.stuff.co.nz, has a “new” look. It’s horrible. I have to scroll all over the place to find anything and on some computers I can’t access my favourite blog. So the new website is supposed to be more “interactive” which means you have to register and log in – to read news? [...]
Strange weather
Posted in melancholy, tagged depression, weather on 27 January, 2009 | Leave a Comment »
After three blistering hot days, yesterday was gloomy, wet and cold. Today the sun shines again. One never knows what to wear. There could be a cold wind, it could be swelteringly hot, it could rain. The weather is daft.
And on top of all that the black dog nips at my heels (again) as I try [...]
Blog vs diary, and random stuff
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged birthday, blog, christmas, diary, English, facebook, lawnmowing on 1 December, 2008 | 1 Comment »
I think I’ll have to buy a diary for next year. This blog thing isn’t working out. When people ask me when I did such-and-such I really can’t remember and it’s not written down anywhere. I used to be able to go to my diary and there it would be noted. I feel like my [...]
