Happy Days Are Here Again!

Right...now that Blogger has stopped poohing it's pants and some of the 'excitement' has settled down, it's time to get back to some kinda normal programme here. I had been thinking about writing a post about men and attraction etc, but with recent developments it completely ran in the opposite direction. No matter, I'm sure it'll surface again at some stage lol.

ANYWAY....Guess what I've got?? Acutally, you don't have to guess, just check out the pic.

So yes, the infamous parcel has arrived....been to the UK, and made it's way back to NZ. And thank goodness for that eh? Now we all know where Barnaby is, and we all know where the Bloggers Journal is. Jo, if you're going on holiday in the next few weeks, can you let me know? Cos I aint sending this baby back til I know for sure you're going to be there to receive it this time lol.

There appears to be something going on at Blogrolling.com lately. Ever since I put that programme into play with my lovely blogroll, I've relied on it to let me know when or if you lot have updated. For the most part all's been going well. In the past so many weeks, something didn't seem quite right.

To begin with I figured once the weekend was upon us, noone updated. There were no *'s alongside anyone's name. Forgetting the fact that it's almost a habit that I myself don't post over the weekends these days, I was mildly irked I had no new reading fodder to feast my eyes upon. That's otherwise known as double standards.

Yesterday I came in here, dropped down my blogroll and oh my Lord, each and every one of you had an asterik! That's including the blogs that have never had a feed to connect to in the past.

Today it seems back to 'normal', whatever the hell that is. But I live in hope at having the experience sometime soon. lol

The other day Cameron rang me from the Bakery to ask if I wanted cake. (What kinda dumb question is that? lol) I asked why and he said that one of the chocolate cakes was lopsided, so if I wanted him to, he'd bring it home. Obviously he had it in his clutches when I picked him up. At home I opened the box...

"What's that? Did they start to decorate it and change their minds or what?"
"Nah, that was just me having a go at cake decoration"
"Well, what's it supposed to be then?"
"Whoa Mum, what's wrong with you? Can't you see it spells "lol", geeez"

Of course it does!...How could I not have seen that?? Doh!

*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
