Canon 300D/350D – with some "make-up" on. Ohh I could go a dark pink or perhaps even a candy pink to match my shoes or wallet. IF/when I buy a second SLR, so having the back-up air-brushed. mmmm so so pretty.
organising, sorting and throwing.
It must be the weather or my avoidance or impending assignments but sheesh my room and computer are looking good. In the past couple of weeks…
I have thrown out probably 3 armfuls of paper consisting of old paper work and junk mail that I had kept (I used to seriously collect junk mail).
I have cleaned out drawers, my wardrobe, my desk etc and taken out many bags of rubbish.
Sean made me a little bedside cupboard which I use as an entry cupboard at TAFE last year, the top was covered in my work gear, daily essentials etc, well I went through it all and moved it into the draw in the cupboard, the top is now reserved for my flowers and important, cherished things.
I have filed and sorted all my paperwork in preparation of tax time.
I finally organised my finances on the computer, now I can really track my cash purchases – where I spend/loose the most.
I went through the recent mp3’s I have gotten and filed them out.
I have sold my old CM stickers, got a good wad of paper to donate to somewhere when I find a place.
I have sorted out my creating stuff.
I have put completed layouts in albums or sleeves, though I do need to buy more albums.
I cleaned/put structure in my desk, removed all the piles of paper, scrubbed it clean, it looks fresh:)
I have started cleaning out my computer – an on going project. Renaming and filing files.
Feeling good, Feeling more in control. Now if only those essays would start themselves.
an update on Grandad
From what I understand, there is nothing overly to be worried about him, just he is getting old. The black out is possibly due to any matter of things – low blood sugar levels, his bad cold he has and his medication. He was moved to Greenslopes yesterday to be monitored for 24hrs and then decide what to do from there. He is now going to stay at Greenslopes for a couple of more days so they can keep an eye on him.
"The professor" is quite interested in his case as he has had no damage caused from his black-out, he didn’t fall out of the chair during his sleep(which is so lucky, since his skin is so frail). Again from what I understand, a pacemaker may be the go soon.
Thanks for your support.
Meat Loaf
no not the meal (never had it) but the artist. For the last 50 mins I have had “I’d do anything for love“ on repeat, it was on the radio when I was on my way home from work and then I just had to listen to it. I often wish now that I had forked out the money to see Meat Loaf when they toured a while back but hey that is life. Meat Loaf just makes me jump round the room with an air guitar, blasting out the words.
A random Meat Loaf memory, the first night I went to Sean’s place, Michael (Sean’s littler brother who needs a hair cut or at least a trim), put on an Meat Loaf CD, loaded up “Bat out of Hell” and started thrashing round the room, asking me what I thought of Meat Loaf, I of course replied I love him, who couldn’t. Nothing like some Meat Loaf on the night you meet the family.
granadad is in hospital
I don’t really know any details yet, Mum is meeting Julie at the Prince Charles in about 1hr, which is when we will find out more. All we know now is that he passed out at the dinner table last night and woke up there this morning at 6:30. He was able to shower and shave this morning but he a lot slower than normal at doing things, which is quite distressing to him as well as to us.
a good weekend
One Year.
