These are two of the most recent photos I've got of my wee friend Jaimee. I took them a couple of weeks ago, while she was playing in the bath (Anna had invited me over for dinner, prior to the rugby). My attempts to get one of her smiling were fruitless...each time I thought I finally captured one, the image would show that I wasn't quick enough and I had a lovely picture of her back of the back of her head. Darn kids for having so much energy and moving faster than my digital camera can snap them lol

Jaimee is now 15 months old. She starting walking last month. She's still so little it's looks wrong to see her walking. She hasn't quite got the walking thing going properly...still doesn't bend her knees, so she's walking straight-legged, like a mummy.

I've had a harrowing morning at work today...was abused a couple of times over the phone, and once in person. I had just enough time to get home, change and rush to meet Annette for a luncheon date we'd arranged a few weeks ago....neither of us were very enthusiastic about it, we were both so knackered after our shift...still, she's great company and I enjoyed the time I got to spend with her away from work.

I'm off to have an early shower, and climb into bed to read my book for a while. If I don't fall asleep until tomorrow, I shall be back this evening to catch up on your blogs and do some commenting. If I can't get there tonight, I will most certainly catch up on my blog reading tomorrow (Friday).

Below is something I have copied/stolen. I've seen it on several blogs recently. I'll leave it up to you as to whether or not you want to answer the questions. If you decide to answer, then you will give me some interesting reading on my own blog, to come back to lol

1. Who are you?
2. Are we friends?
3. When and how did we meet?
4. Do you have a crush on me?
5. Would you kiss me?
6. Give me a nickname and explain why you picked it.
7. Describe me in one word.
8. What was your first impression?
9. Do you still think that way about me now?
10. What reminds you of me?
11. If you could give me anything what would it be?
12. How well do you know me?
13. When's the last time you saw me?
14. Ever wanted to tell me something but couldn't?
15. Are you going to put this on your blog and see what I say about you?

Hope you're all having a great week. Happy Bastille Day!

*gasp* Who IS that masked font?

This far down the track, it's sometimes hard for me to remember where Dan and I came from. Not in the "Who am I?" or "What is my purpose on this earth?" kinda way you understand...but of how we met and how much that totally spontaneous meeting unexpectedly affected both our lives and the lives of those around us. It's been over 3 years since Dan stumbled across this blog, and almost 3 years since we actually met in person for coffee. Next February it will have been 3 years since I told him I was in love with him. Don't panic...this is not going to be a post filled with sunlight and rainbows, extolling the brilliance of the above-mentioned man and all he means to me. Would I do that to you? I mean to say...this is the first time I've put font to screen in over 4 months, do you really think I'd come back and get all gushy/mushy on you? Nah...that'd make even me wanna gag. The fact of the matter is...that it HAS been such a long time sinc

A Wandering Post

Hallo Everybardee! (that's my Sharon Osborne impersonation.) I'm listening to Lemar's "If There's Any Justice" while I'm sitting here wracking my brain as to what to write today. And this song coupled with the recent brain-hurty questions that are being flung at us via Lisa's blog have me wondering. How many people out there are sitting in unhappy partnerships/marriages out there? How many are bobbling along in their marriages, for fear of not wanting to be alone or for the sake of the children etc? I spent 15 years with my husband before I finally realised we just weren't the same people we used to be and no amount of compromise was going to get us through the rest of life together. I met him when I was 18...seperated from him at the age of 33...one a teenager, the other a much different woman and the mother of two boys. I don't regret this time of my life, not one iota...there's a lot of learning and growing to had in those 15 years. My

Sleep, Blog, Sleep, Blog, hmm

Working extra hours will of course take it's toll on my body...and to be honest, things are going fairly well in that respect...that was...until last night. Cos ya see, last night, I didn't go to bed at the usual time of around 1030ish. I sat here and read my entire blog history...and although that's not HUGE because I've only been blogging since the beginning of the year....that's still a fair amount of reading to get through. That, coupled with catching up on some of your blogs (didn't always comment on them, forgive me)...I ended up crawling into bed at 1.35am. 1.35AM!! I haven't stayed up that late since I first started playing backgammon on the MSN Zone (and then we're talking about 3 and 4am, I must've been nuts!). Now I know that 1.30 isn't an unusually late night for some of you...but for me? it's big these days...real big. So this morning (some of the only free time I have this week, I...am...knackered. Why do we do this to
