Dullness

It was overcast here today and this seems to have set the tone for my day. Perhaps it was the sleeping pattern I had developed over the holidays, but I was tired and lethargic. I felt frustrated by the behaviour of many people around me today, but sadly not frustrated enough to bother doing anything about it. I feel tired and ‘can’t be bothered’. Perhaps it is the impending eclipse on Wednesday. Don’t know…..
Ho hum….
Well, I think I’ll get an early night and tomorrow can be a bright new day.
I have to confess I am smoking again. Quite regularly too. Have been for a week or so. Will try again soon to quit.
Went to chiropractor today. Was the best part of the dull day. I love that crunch and the relief it brings. Never thought the day would come when I would say that!

Letter from Broken Hill


I got a letter and a gift of a book of poems from Broken Hill on Friday. The letter was from Marj, the lovely lady who was the caretaker of the house we rented. She gave me the recipe for the delicious jam drops she made for us when we arrived at “Hydrangea Cottage”. It was a fabulous place to stay and I would recommend it to anyone intending on visiting Broken Hill.
I made the jam drops today and they are delicious. Just like Marj’s! They were a little larger than hers though cause I had no idea how much they would grow in the oven, but next time I make them, they will be better. I was pleased with myself.
I got all the housework done and feel organised enough to return to work tomorrow.

Garden State

The ‘Garden State’ cover is different in Australia to the one on the above website. I like ours better actually. It depicts a great scene from the movie.
The movie is awesome. Great movie, very funny scenes, touching issues and complications and the music is just what I am enjoying lately, Shins etc.
Yes it has been the high point of my day watching this movie.

Today has been a little bit of a struggle to avoid feeling those end of school holidays blues. I managed though. It’s just a freedom restriction thing. I like being at school these days – Remember that! Yes, it’s me talking to myself again.
