A stroll along the river on a summers day ....




Sun - worshiping

It's easy to understand the Egyptions worshiping Ra, the Sun God. I am sitting outside in the sun, baking slowly as itsprobably not hot enough to warm water never mind bake me, but as I sit in the sun and enjoy the warmth I can understand sun worship.

Sun, the warmth and the ability to increase Vitamen D in your body, simply by being exposed to the suns rays reasonably often, is an opportunity to indulge ones self in the practice of doing very little and getting a lot.

Sun seems to lift moods, increase happiness, and encourage every lawnmower in the neighbourhood to come out of hiding from it's dark little shed and growl around the gardens of little every house. The monotonous low roar of the mower becoming the background noise to a summers day, whilst birds, cars and children compete for the other space that niose inhabits. Still, the baking continues and the noise fades into the distance whilst I day dream of things to come and things past, and things I would have changed....or not.

Bad- mouthing things, people and jobs....

I've been thinking about how the lastest trend of people lambasting their companies online, and talking about how bored / irritated they are, and how they hate their job, and leave it all online for everyone to read!

If we are looking at career limiting moves, surely that is one?

I know I'm not the one to be telling people about what to do and what not to do, cos I've been a vocal person at most times. And some times I have been so close to burning bridges and telling all. I mean, even a few of my blogs have been pretty close to near - firing. However, I don't think I ever totally over stepped the mark. Didn't actually write a name or a company that would be recognised, and luckily named this blog something pretty obscure.

Thankfully, the blog has been an oppportunity to rant in a world where outbursts and moaning can be taken to mean you are mentally unstable and Health Sevices should be knocking on your door. You can't be angry, but you can beat a child to death very slowly over 8 or 10 months, and not be noticed. Emotion is bad, anger is irrational, but beatig is OK? What does this world have to look forward to? Or my readers for that mattre after I spout this shit all day .....

So the rich have it easy...

......but now and then I can too!

Barclays have this nice little concierge system, when I can call them 10 times a year and ask them to do anything,a dn they do! For free! So I have this amazingly complex holiday that Tania, Roy, Timmy ( SA) I, Jordan and Connor ( UK) and AN Other ( UK) are trying to take (sort of) together, with varying train times and trips etc....and I just told this lovely girl called Amanda what I wanted and she'll get back to me with an itinerary and a price!

Woohoo!! No wonder the rich have it easy. It's like your own personal assistant. Bring it on! I'm gonna do this more even if I have to pay for it, cos it's brilliant!

Oh yay oh yaya

So, after a few hard days of missing my man so very badly ( luckily he feels the same way) he drove up to see me for the night. He's wonderful, and he knows how happy he makes me (you make me very happy) and he's a real treat.

It is always amazing when he arrives and that feeling I feel when my stomache drops, and tehbutterflies go mad, and the smile creeps up, and the eyes connect. I can't describe it properly, but I'll never get sick of the feeling.
