Busy work week

Tuesday. Hard to find a happy moment to write about until I remembered a game I was shown. "QWOP" - use those keys on the keyboard to make a person run. I was in tears, it amused me so much.

Wednesday. Worked late due to the launch of a lecture series. Ended up being the tech support for the speaker. Amazing talk though. Utterly inspiring. Followed by Craft Room. Hilarious discussions that had me laughing all evening.

Thursday. Yet another late night, yet another work event. This time a discussion panel. Very successful - lecture theatre was packed! And again somehow I ended up being the support for the speakers - running around like a ball girl with the handheld mic.

Revival

Time for this blog to have a revival. Time to work on making life happier.

Today, Monday 13 August. A beautiful sunny day and a nice lunch in the sunshine.

Something new. Photos. I'll try to post a photo of myself every once in a while. Perhaps once a week. Perhaps more, perhaps less. Just to see.


Okay, maybe two photos sometimes. I couldn't decide.

March 1, 2010

The beginning of the third month already. Too much has happened since my last post. I've not been good at keeping this up.

In short. Elora turned three. We had a big party. Atti is growing up and maturing before my very eyes. Elora can write her name now (as can Atticus, extremely well). Dante is now in Yr 4/5 and doing Yr 5 maths and loving it.

Wow.

Also, I made a quilt. And party bags.

All is right with the world today. I am smiling and the kids are being cooperative.

Year of the Tiger. Dan's year! A relaxing day sorting out fabrics in my sewing room coupled with a quick trip to the shops with the kids.

Chinese New Year's Eve. Big family dinner at my parents' place. Them, plus my brothers and their families, my father's sister + husband, my father's brother + partner, as well as his ex-wife (but still will always be my favourite Auntie), and one of my cousins and his family.

Spent the day frantically cleaning the house. Meant to sweep (or vacuum in modern times, I guess) the bad luck away.

Friday at last. Quilt sent off to Vancouver. Not sure if it will get there in time. Fingers crossed that it will get there in time.
