Harsh, cold and grey weather does nothing for my ability to get things done. Although I had much less to get through today, I only got half of it done! In Chinese astrology I am a Snake. I can’t move unless I am warm. I was not warm.
I didn’t complete my tax return. This is […]

On Tuesday I had my regular massage booked. My son also had a chiropractor appointment and as he’s missed the last 100 appointments (could be slight hyperbole), my entire appointment memory function was focussed on that appointment and half an hour after that mission was accomplished, my lovely masseur phoned, to see if I was ok.

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 […]

I’ve said before how unpleasant I find winter, yet last night the sound of the rain was really comforting. I felt like I hadn’t enjoyed the sound of rain and water running down the drainpipes for a long time. It was a little windy. Not ‘I hope the roof doesn’t blow off’ windy, but just a […]

Last night during my massage, I swear I woke myself up talking in my sleep. How embarrassing! It was very relaxing and when I got home, you guessed it - I was too relaxed and mellow to write any reports…..
Tonight I am making some progress on them at last. I have finished one class out […]

Makes impending winter bearable. I know seems pretty simple doesn’t it? Last year I had a wood heater as my source of warmth. It was such hard and messy work. I don’t know myself this year. I installed a reverse cycle air conditioner last spring and I just have to push the button and within a […]

I can’t believe my son is 18. I lay in bed last night wondering where all the years had gone and what time he was going to get home! He went out for drinks with his friends after celebrating with the family. I decided that even though he is an adult, I could still send […]

Tuesday night I had my regular monthly massage with Linda. It was absolutely decadent and I felt wonderful afterward. She is the best masseur I have ever been to and she was one of the trainers at the introductory massage course I completed last year. I would like to recommend the Australian College of Massage courses to […]

We are getting good rain here today. Luckily I walked down town early because since then the rain has really settled in. I have in my possession Season 7 (the final season) of ‘The Gilmour Girls’ so I am going to snuggle in and watch it this afternoon. My son is at work so I’ll […]

This could be a case of careful what you wish for, but I know ultimately it will be for my own good. I am co-ordinating this year and at the last minute I received some extra duties last week. The start of the week was very flat out and I felt like I wouldn’t be […]
