2 Years

Monday, December 21st, 2009

Two years ago today we signed the mortgage paperwork on this house. I felt it auspicious that we were signing the paperwork on the Solstice, and despite the rough times we’ve been through with money and health, the house has always remained, a great comfort and great shelter.
Slowly and surely we’re getting used to [...]

Oops!

Saturday, October 3rd, 2009

I realized that I didn’t update about B.F.’s condition. Here I am about to get distracted by weight loss supplements and not actually do that, so I thought I better get to it. Especially as I have a lot of other things to do today. We’re having a cookout, a lot of friends and family [...]

Joy Infection 2

Thursday, August 13th, 2009

The Joy Infection prompt for this week is: “Something small which has brought you joy”
For me this would have to be any number of things the munchkin does that are spontaneous showing of affection. The other day he climbed up in my lap and said, “Mummy, I love you,” and snuggled down on my chest. [...]

JI1: Unexpected Joy

Monday, August 3rd, 2009

Today is the first prompt from Joy Infection.
Catriona asks:
Write about a time that something unexpected brought you great joy, particularly if it really cheered you up!
I actually have a very recent instance of this. I was feeling rather bummed about my birthday as I had blogged on the day. I spent the early [...]

Spreading Joy

Sunday, August 2nd, 2009

I’m going to be participating here in my own Joy Infection meme. I would love for more people to participate in this meme. The idea is to write about the little things that bring you joy and therefore spread the joy throughout your sphere and help everyone to uplift their mood a little at a [...]

Self Portrait Sunday

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

First time in a long time.

I’ve been feeling quite out of sorts lately as I may have said; plus I’ve been very busy with family, job hunting and all the rest of it. Today is the last day of a five shift week; but I have three days off Monday-Wednesday to catch up with things. [...]

Self Portrait Sunday

Sunday, February 15th, 2009

I actually remembered to take a picture for Self Portrait Sunday this week. I know I don’t look so happy…I was having a hard time lining things up in the Instinct to take the picture.

However, I am happy. The collar I’m sporting is actually part of my Valentine’s present. Hubbie got me the collar, and [...]

Self Portrait Sunday

Monday, January 26th, 2009

Hey look I remembered! We were sitting around talking and hanging out after my friend’s birthday party wound down and I suddenly realized that it actuallyw as Sunday today, so I stole Roomie’s camera and snapped a quick picture.

The guys find my expression hilarious but I wasn’t in the mood to snap a gajillion shots [...]

Self Portrait Sunday

Monday, October 20th, 2008

…on Monday. What gets me about this is that I actually took the picture on Saturday! Then I still forgot to post it. Ah, well, here it is:

I know my expression is a bit funky, but it took me a billion tries to actually get the pumpkin in the background…so once I finally had one [...]
