Update
The other day Pippin chewed through Ruth's laptop cable.
He's fine. Didn't even trip the power board. He chewed it through the lower voltage side so I guess that helped.
Anyway it meant that Ruth's laptop ran out of battery pretty quick and so she's on my computer and I'm on my phone until the new cable comes. It was really difficult to find one to fit properly. Stupid things.
Anyway it's on the way but until then I'm on the phone which makes replying or even reading my flist difficult.
I'm on twitter most of the time @kath_ballantyne
Unfortunately it was just as I'd started painting again.
Here are three pics I did before I gave up the computer.
Hopefully getting back to painting means that I'm starting to come out of this stupid flare I've been in since going away for Lefaym's birthday.
The first two are based on things I saw online and the second I just liked.
I have some in my notebook to scan in later too.
In under a month I turn 30.
I have some friends coming all the way out to Hill End to visit me and then later in the month we're heading up to Newcastle to see family.
I bought myself Doctor Who series 5 for my birthday.
Dad has given me money for wood. I think I'll use it to get some fire tongs to make adjusting the fire easier.
I am perfectly happy not receiving presents. I am grateful that people are coming all the way out here for my birthday.
If people do feel the need to get me anything here's a list of things I like.
Koolaid - The sugar free stuff. It is a great die for fibre but we can't get it here. It needs to be bright colours and sugar free.
Fibre of any kind. Something pretty and soft that I can spin. Or many colours with which I can felt.
Something like Bunnings vouchers that I can use on plants for the garden.
I have a few things on my Amazon Wish List http://t.co/L7PYE4H
I want an icecream maker *G*
I also want a dehydrator Lovely people got me a dehydrator. Thanks Alisso and Mandi
Salt and pepper grinders that are electric. I have a lot of trouble getting enough out of our grinders. My hands are not strong enough. Thanks Lefaym and D
Or donate to an animal shelter
Or commission something from us and donate it somewhere.
I really want a new graphics tablet too but it's expensive and not essential yet. I'm just fed up of this silly pen that has been falling apart for years.
I really should buy a new Wacom Pen. Last I looked they were only about $30
I wish I could afford an intuos but I'm sure the next one is going to have to be a Bamboo. They don't make the Graphire4 any more.
But even people who do feel the need to get me something please don't feel you need to get me something off this list.
Love you all.
