Day two NYC - Hoho's get free Margaritas
So we arrived in New York and into our lovely 2 bedroom (4 story walk up). If I squinted really really hard, I could be Carrie Bradshaw coming home – but in sensible shoes. Tired and feeling a b...
Hurray, hurray it's a holi, holiday
I’m back. I know this falls under first world problems with a capital F but boy I feel down. I’m pretty sure it is a combo of jetlag and post holiday trauma. We had a fabulous time away. I hes...
Mr Sniffy and the tale of two dress-ups
Work has been crazy busy, and I love it. I’m finally starting to get a few regular clients of my own and I am also working on two lots of group travel. It’s not at the level of busy that my ol...
Everything is Awesome
I'm not sure if you have seen the Lego movie, but let me tell you that song sticks in your head like dog poo on your shoes. I can't remember anything but that line but I have been chanting it ov...
Even Cowgirls get the blues
It has been a tough week. I am usually a sunny, glass half full person. Mentally I consider myself pretty stable (other's may disagree). I did see a note on my Dr's file that said "may be suff...
Another Sunday
I'm multi tasking. Playing a game on facebook and watching a brilliant UK drama on the telly. It's a Vera Stanhope mystery. I saw the actress who plays her on Graham Norton and she has certai...
Sunday
God I feel lazy today. It's 12.15 and I am back in my jammies. I say back because I got up at 7.00 and went to the supermarket. Got home about 7.45 and both kitties were still in bed, so I re-...
My Masarti does 185
Yippee Skippee the Eagles are coming to New Zealand. (I was going to title this Heartache tonight, but that would smack of drama queen). It's not until March next year (in Auckland). I was qui...
Crazy cat lady
I saw a cool wrought iron sign in a store that spelt out Crazy cat lady. I really liked it, but I probably don't need a daily affirmation hanging on my wall. Yesterday I came home from the movi...
I'm on my way from misery
to happiness today. Nah, not really it was a song in a move I saw the other night (Sunshine on Leith), and has been stuck in my head since then. It's a lovely movie, if you are into musicals (i...
Saturday (not in the park)
Taking a quick break to watch Hoarders (or as I like to call it - motivation) while my vege bake does it thing. Tonight is our pub "widows" dinner and I am the vegetable course. I'm looking f...
Gratitude
On the whole I have a pretty good mental attitude. Shit goes down and at the time I can be annoyed/hurt/anxious but on the whole within 24 hours I tend to bounce back pretty well (let me stress ...
Monday, Monday
I'm having the morning off work. Amir the electrician came at 10.00 to fix the fritzing kitchen light. He pulled about a metre of electrical cord out of the ceiling that the last lazy arse spar...
Cross patch
I am feeling cross. Not angry exactly just annoyed and well, crotchety seems like a good description too. It all stems back to still not feeling great and not getting enough sleep. I live in a ...
Forty freakin nine
Hello Possums I'm still not feeling 100%. Gave in and got a professional opinion on Wednesday. I still couldn't get into my regular Doctor, she is really good, and unfortunately for me very pop...
Dr Bob
Hello Girls (I can say that because I lost my one and only boy reader in the big move). A moment of poor me-ed-ness. I have the flu. Well I think it is the flu - High temp, sore throat, sore h...
Sunday afternoon
Stretched out on the recliner, Booboo the cat on my knee, chips and dip at the ready and watching the Big C on DVR. For some reason the local television network had a falling out with some of th...
Anyone need something crocheted?
Sooo bored at work. My normal pace is pretty fast supplemented with periods of facebook/news/diary surfing. I'm kind of doing the opposite today but even looking at peoples cat pics on FB gets ...
two entries in two days - new record!
My new letterbox has a bit of a design fault (or maybe it is me), I can't see inside it unless I stand on the street side (which is higher), I certainly have no desire to stick my hand in it with...
Can you hear the drums
I'm typing this on my tablet, as my laptop is still on the frizt. Teeny tIny font so I apologize in advance for typos. Still coming down off a really busy November. I was away every weekend. A...
