i'm working on sunday


yuk. it's super busy and hard work. i also have an incredible urge to create something. sewing, painting, photography, gardening. i can't decide. i've been looking at Diane's fab photos and a friend's crafty etsy page. lovely stuff. photo is of beach at seminyak in bali. always get good photos there. so picturesque.

Diana went home last night

i drove her to the airport. late flight back to cairns. she bought me a lovely piece of amethyst as a thank you present and cooked dinner last night, it was delicious. she's a great cook. so i'm all alone again. my son called in for breakfast this morning. he's done his back in again and has serious hayfever/sinusitis. i bought him some apple cider vinegar as it's supposed to help with allergies. i'm going to try it too.

a visitor


my friend from Cairns/Adelaide/Coventry is arriving tomorrow to spend a week here. she left for Cairns about 3 years or so ago. it's very humid up there atm so she's in for a shock as Adelaide is cold and wet atm. i'll be working most of the time but she has plans a plenty. visiting her husbands family and chilling out. although why she chooses to holiday in Adelaide when she lives in Cairns is kinda crazy to me. i stayed with her when i holidayed in Cairns a while ago. i'm so used to living alone i'm just a tad concerned about how i'll cope with someone (not my sister or the g/kids) in the house with me. work today was horrible. my first weekend in a few years. omg everything hurts. might have an early night :)

well it's different that's for sure


very different. i was at my old site today. every tuesday. it's great. new site is just so different. not completely horrible. i was shelving down the back of the library and heard helicopters overhead. they seemed to be there for ages. omg there must be a raid in the neighbourhood i thought. turned out that it was only the aircon. omg. bloody noisiest aircon ever. no raid at least. i work much harder at the new site. more desk shifts and the back room work is a bit boring. i'm used to lots of variation. doing stuff i really like like spreadsheets and designing posters and good stuff like that. the most interesting thing i've done thus far is a mail merge. i do hope i have enough strength to stay with it and it gets better. pic is of the g/kids at wallaroo on the w/end. we had a great time. it was exhausting but fun. :)

why are we here?


is there life after death? have we lived before? do you believe in ghosts? is there only one chance at life? just wondering
