Weather was overcast much of today, it's foggy now. While that could provide some interesting photo opportunities, i passed. I just hope the rain stays away for the parade of sail tomorrow. I'll be disappointed if it's cancelled due to rain. It's expected to be showery so i don't know if it will go or not and i have no idea where to call or listen ( Read more... )

I just spent a half an hour doing that long year end meme that's going around but i have just deleted it all. I usually do my own year end round up, not a question and answer type meme, it's a month by month review in point form and a few lists but i don't post it until new year. Obviously this year has had some good things in it, but there's been ( Read more... )

Looks like we're going to get a respectable snowfall! Usually big, fat flakes don't equal a lot of snow but it's been coming down most of the afternoon after a wet morning. I had the window open earlier to take a pic and it's not really cold out there, just hovering about zero ( Read more... )

I know. It was a nice, sunny day. Why wasn't i outside in it? If i didn't stay in and do the housework i planned to do, it would get put off for another week at least. Sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. The apartment isn't spotless by any means but the top of the stove is cleaned and refreshed, the bathroom is cleaned, the sheets are changed ( Read more... )

I found this week went by really quickly, didn't you? After last Saturday's marathon of Rawk in the Rain i am mostly going to stay inside and dry this weekend. Got housework to do. Never did get round to doing the top of the stove when i cleaned the oven so i am going to knuckle down to that and shall have fresh sparkly burner liners (courtesy of ( Read more... )

First off, my mom had lunch with kazza_ yesterday. Report here. They had a great visit! kazza_ is a good mate of mine, yes an "internet" friend because that's how we met and mainly keep in touch, irc and the telephone and we've met in person once. She's the kind of friend i really wish i lived closer to (we're on opposite sides of the country) so that we ( Read more... )

Funny how 40 minutes of cleaning the oven and various grill racks wipes you out ( Read more... )

The oven will be cleaned tomorrow. that's a promise, seeing as i've already sprayed it down to sit overnight. When the oven smokes and the smoke alarm goes off and you haven't even used the broiler, it's time to clean it lol ( Read more... )

Aren't Fridays lovely? Even horribly rainy ones like this one is turning out to be. Tail end of a tropical storm. Raining sideways. I got home ok though, it was pouring when i left the office but when i got to the bus it wasn't too bad. One of my workmates lent me a hat which was better than nothing. When i got off the bus at home, it had almost ( Read more... )
