Lying here in bed, I realised that I’m in the same bed as I was in yesterday. That hasn’t happened for a while. A whole week in fact. I left my house on Friday morning last week and slept in a different bed each night until I got back home on Thursday evening. I love […]
It was the Christmas party at work today. 3 ½ social interactions and a couple of plates of buffet food later and it’s time to curl up in a ball under the duvet. I still feel the evening was a success, I just need to hide for a while and recharge :).
“Hey! You’re wearing nice socks, can I try them on?”
They say you can’t cure stupid.
You can’t really cure muscle ache either
The van is huuuuuge!! And has the turning circle of a block of flats.
In the rush to get out of the house I left my coffee behind..
It seems I’m my own best saboteur….but at least we have a good packed lunch!
Happy Birthday Blog. (And happy birthday Claudette when you read this)
Look what I found when I got to work this morning! A very posh looking bag, containing.. .. even posher looking chocolates! It’s the thanks for the prizes I made and donated to a competition in the summer. There’s all kinds if things in there I’d never buy for myself – I’m looking forward to […]
My sister is always adopting animals. This time she must have decided it was my turn. She left a small animal with my parents for me to collect and look after. Unfortunately I don’t know quite what it is. I thought it was a baby puffin, my parents said it looked more like a penguin […]
Today is my birthday. I wanted to write a list of things I was going to do over the coming year as a kind of birthday post. I am very naive. I sat down last night and within a very short time I had a list of well over 31 things which all have to […]
I’m not particularly keen on snakes. I don’t have anything in particular against them, but I have less for them. I have no desire to be bitten and/or poisoned and possibly even less desire to be squeezed to death. This isn’t about that kind of snake. *** Recently I started learning Python. That’s a programming […]
“It’s in a cup so you don’t look weird” – Dad. I was drinking apple juice. Everyone else was having tea. Black tea. The English sort with milk. The sort the sanity of the country, or at least my family, depends on. The sort everyone makes and offers you whenever anything happens, big or small, […]
I finally registered my glass molecule making company yesterday. I’ve wanted to sell my glass (molecules and other artistic glassware) legally for a while – I had the original idea back in 2012, it seems I need a long time to process my ideas. Whatever. It’s registered now, and ready to go. If anyone wants […]
Once upon a time, I soldered something together in school. At some point between then and now I made some stained glass windows and some small Tiffany style pieces. That kind of involves soldering, but with a huge soldering iron and a reel of lead/tin you could probably knock someone out with. Since then, my […]
