New Moon in Cancer - Thursday, 3rd July, 2008

June 30th, 2008 · 2 Comments

A new moon again, they’re coming quickly. We are at the halfway mark of 2008. The goals to set for this new moon in the spirit of Cancer would be centred around home and family. Nurturing and compassionate goals for this month. If you look outside on these dark moon nights, so long as you […]

Lazy Sunday

June 30th, 2008 · 4 Comments

Today has been the laziest day I’ve had in a long while. I haven’t left the house and it’s been great. I had a couple of visitors, close people so no need to entertain, they were happy to hang out with me in my pj’s and sympathise about sore mouth. It was good and decadent. […]

Teeth

June 28th, 2008 · 4 Comments

I have a sore tooth today. I think it might be an abcess. It’s come at an inconvenient time! I don’t take painkillers very often, it’s probably years since I’ve had a panadol or anything like that. I’m fortunate enough that if I get an occasional headache, it’s usually dehydration and I haven’t drank enough […]

Ending the Term

June 27th, 2008 · 3 Comments

I seriously think the teachers were more elated than students today as that final bell sounded. I was surprised at the reluctance of students to move out of the grounds. Granted many of them didn’t show up today though, so it was only the keen ones that were there to farewell the term.

Two More Sleeps….

June 25th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Until school ends for this term! We are all counting the hours at this point. I have parent teacher interviews tomorrow night. It’s been a long and hectic term. The students look tired and the teachers are wearing down. One of our teachers has ended the term today, with no remaining voice.

Videos to DVD

June 22nd, 2008 · No Comments

Up until my daughter went to secondary school, she was a fabulous performer. She was in the drama ensemble of the State Schools Extravaganza ‘Quest of the Birds’. She was a voice of one of the puppets and I was in total awe of her as she performed in front of such a large audience […]

Midwinter’s Eve

June 21st, 2008 · 3 Comments

Its the longest night here in Australia tonight, winter solstice.  The great thing is that the days will be getting longer from this point on. It’s a turning point. This occasion is not marked in a big way here in the southern hemisphere, but the link to the wikipedia article lists the many types of […]

Swollen

June 20th, 2008 · 3 Comments

Tom’s face is swollen. We went to a suburban clinic today to have all four of his wisdom teeth removed. I feel relieved to be home and have it behind me. I had my wisdom teeth out in two incidents. It was ugly and horrible. I was sick and ‘like a foul-mouthed drunk’ according to […]

Wisdom Teeth

June 16th, 2008 · 9 Comments

My son has to have all four wisdom teeth removed. I had mine taken out in two episodes, but he’s having them all at once. It makes me sick to think about to be honest.
On the weekend, due to our ‘in and out’ communications issues, I left him a note. I wrote: Tom, How about leaving […]
