No Computer and QBee Members Please Read!
I'm just updating to let people know that I'm without my computer still, and now I'm without a computer or Internet at home. This will make updating all my sites manually pretty much impossible, though I will still be able to post in the blog and approve fan/namelist members, etc.
NOTE TO QUILTING BEE MEMBERS:
If you are participating in the Halloween event and I've requested to trade with you, or you have requested to trade with me, please be aware that due to my computer issues I wont be able to add your patches to my Halloween page. I don't know when I will be able to, but I will do it whenever I can! Sorry about this.
Other than that, I'm fine at the moment. My wisdom teeth extractions went well and my recovery was speedy and the pain well managed.
I don't have much time so I shall go. Sorry I can't read blogs very often and reply to comments very much :[
The Good, The Bad, And The Gorgeous.
The last part of the title is totally irrelevant, just so you know. Even though I am gorgeous. Obviously (a-hur-hur).
Quite awhile since my last post, and a fair bit has since happened.
The bad news:
- On Wednesday one of our dogs, Kumho, had to be put to sleep due to kidney failure. He would have been 12 next month and, for a dog of his size, he was definitely an old man. It still hasn't really sunken in yet. I feel like I'll see him any minute now, but deep down I know I wont.
Our other dog, Puppy, is quite lost at the moment without his buddy. He needs loads of cuddles with everyone, as do us humans.
- I still don't have a job. I haven't gotten any casual work over the holidays, but, let's face it, I haven't exactly been trying. Especially this past week which has been really awful with Kumho being sick, and a bunch of other stressful things. Now there is no point in trying to get a job until I after I have my teeth done on Wednesday and have recovered.
- Financially I am just getting by, though I don't have enough to help pay for power and phone, etc. Just enough to get Molly's (you know, my cat) and my food.
The good news:
- The bus should be able to be moved into place in the next few weeks. Until then my Mum is going to help me take everything out of it, clean it to it's death (har har), and put curtains up.
Hopefully I should be getting power, and — please, please, please, please, please — Internet in there.
Power will allow the fridge, my stereo and TV, and some other electrical appliances to be plugged in, as needed. Fridge all the time, for obvious reasons...
- It's spring, and aside from the rain, what's not to love about spring, I ask? Not a lot, in my opinion.
- The Big Day Out is happening in January and it just so happens that some bands I would dearly love to see are coming! There is another announcement to come in November. From the first announcement I want to see the following:
- Rage Against The Machine (you'd have to be a dolt to miss them)
- Bjork (ahhh, Goddess!!)
- Dizzee Rascal
- The Phoenix Foundation (and a great New Zealand band)
I will have to find someone to go with. Maybe I can convince my brother, which shouldn't take much considering Rage are going to be there (fingers crossed).
I think that is all for this entry. I have some time online so I want to get as much done as I can! Hope you're all well; sorry I can't read blogs as much as I would like to. If there is anything important you'd like me to read, drop me an email!
