I'm just this guy... y'know? :)
Wow what a weekend. Spent the entire thing sitting in a chair reading Lord of the Rings… again. Couldn’t even summon up enough energy to write in here yesterday! Youngest had to go to her skating lesson so I staggered out of bed at 6:30 a.m. after serious nagging from the wife who was exhausted … More These wild weekends are wearing me down
Daughter came through ok. Spent until lunchtime in the hospital because the bleeding wouldn’t stop, but eventually she was allowed home 🙂 Her face was really badly swollen so she’s been wearing an ice-pack most of the day… the one they gave us was pretty good. I might keep it in case it comes in … More Just for info.
The world at large seems to have decided I’m either not a ‘fit and proper person’, or that I have no peer group since in all my years I’ve never been called for jury duty! Come to think of it… I can’t say I even *know* anyone who’s been called for jury duty? If you … More Jury Duty – not once!
Slow down,you move to fast You’ve gotta make the morning last… etc… Was driving home this morning from the hospital where I’d dropped off the wife and eldest daughter (who is having teeth removed you may recall?). We left the youngest is bed asleep so I had to come back to get her ready for … More Slow down!
Lots going on today to remember that 30 years ago today Elvis died. Can’t say I ever liked him, can’t recall when he died and didn’t honestly care much when I heard. Is it so important that a mediocre singer like him be remembered this way?? Surely there were *far* better people to honour than … More Elvis has left the building!
Hi ho, Hi ho, it’s off to Aldi we go… again. I like Aldi. They sell lots of odd stuff you don’t know you need until they advertise it… then I *have* to rush off and get it!! 🙂 Today’s delight is an 8.8 litre electric water urn which was on sale for $39.90. We … More Me go shoppy, shoppy.
The eldest daughter is off to the hospital tomorrow. She needs lots of teeth out. Not because she doesn’t look after them, though she doesn’t, more because of ‘something’ that happened either before she was born, or when she was very young. Apparently at some early age she was affected either by a virus or … More Where's me teeth?
Out in the depths of darkest Hungary, at the bottom of an open cast coal mine, the remains of an ancient forest have been uncovered. How many trees were originally preserved is unknown, but scientists have determined there are 16 specimens left for them to study. The eight million year old ‘stumps’ are 2 – … More Put things in perspective.
I thought I’d do what lots of people seem to do these days… ‘Google’ my own name, or in this instance my image… and guess what?? Yup – I found a picture of myself stored for posterity. It *is* me alright, I have a copy on the wall behind me. I’m slightly thinner, not wearing … More Ooh ooh Google me!
Little Bendy Bindi Irwin is at it again! Less than a week away from the first anniversary of her fathers death she has been out in Los Angeles flogging her new line in fashion wear called “Bindi Wear International”. Not sure how you think about it, but for me all I can say is that … More Green is the new black!
