Keeping in touch across the miles

  • Mike took me out on a lovely surprise date on Saturday. We had a nice meal out and then went to see Harry Potter: The Chamber of Secrets. Wow, what a great movie! Daniel Radcliffe did a much better acting job in this one, though there’s still room for improvement. The girl who played Hermiane…

  • I am rejoicing because Dave got the computer set up at home so now I can go on line anytime I want (taking into account phone costs). We are still trying to unpack although great inroads have now been made: our bedroom is box-free, as is the kitchen and this bedroom (the mini one); also…

  • I have now included a link at the bottom of each post for everyone to leave comments! So comment away ๐Ÿ™‚

  • Finally, got to use a computer! I am still using the library facilities and the library in the village has 1 computer and I am allowed 1/2 hr. So hope to get this done in that time. Our furniture arrived last Tues. Ever since then I have been surrounded by boxes. The movers unpacked our…

  • I’ve got loads of projects and things due coming up. Here’s a list of everything: 1) A restaurant logo for “Evening Rain”, a modern asian restaurant (due Tuesday) 2) A presentation on printing processes with coated papers, coatings, varnishes and special inks (to be presented on Tuesday) 3) An interactive, “live” website (due Friday) 4)…

  • The furniture arrived this week, on Tuesday. By Tuesday evening the house was full, and I do mean FULL, of boxes. There was one room with enough floor space for the 2 of us to stand up in, and all the rest of the rooms were full / piled high. We are now in the…

  • Just got over a rotten stinking cold. Well, still getting over it, I just got over the worst part this morning. Thank goodness! Finally getting back into the “swing” of things. Dad’s supposed to be showing mom how to post messages in here… I don’t know if he has yet or not *nudge nudge*. I’m…

  • Joy invited me over for her Christmas dinner last night! She had it early because on Wednesday she leaves for Trinidad for 6 months and therefore will not be here for real Christmas. It was a lovely meal and I got to hang out with Kim for a while, which I haven’t done in a…

  • Back in the UK now, and the 2 of us are together and camping out in our new house (courtesy of John and Kath who have loaned us a double air mattress – matching pair to our own so we are maintaining out own space, even on the floor!) I shall be here for 2…

  • Finally got the gas leak fixed last Saturday. It’s been nice and cozy in the house since then, although, not as cozy as I would really like since we have to try to save energy and money! ๐Ÿ™‚ So glad we got it done as the weather has taken quite a plummet in the past…

Got any book recommendations?
