Whistle while you work

A little randomness ...bloggy flotsam
  • Thank you to all the wishes for S & J's birthday .It has been a busy,well busier week with cleaning up after the party, the end of financial year stuff I have to finish as well as regular end of month stuff for the Tool Man 's business.
  • My little screwup the other day was - I wrote a few posts in advance because I knew I would be busy .Then I forgot about schedule posts posting automatically ... so please go see my Alphabet you ...it was fun but I think only one person saw it.
  • Yesterday I learned how to organise and sort my, almost, 2000 emails (read) in my inbox in Outlook Express. I found some gems in there too. I will share some later.
  • I still have just as many on another hotmail account and over 200 unread emails there.Sorry, I will get to you.I hope you can sort just as easily using hotmail.
  • I am missing you all .I feel very overwhelmed by 101 (slight exaggeration) jobs to be done and I am trying to return comments. Please bear with me.
  • Also, S & J have been unwell with a cold , runny nose etc. I am thankful they are still happy enough when playing though very needy. It is just a bit harder when they both want me at same time.I feel bad they have to wait a turn.
I also found this quote and forgot to use it Tuesday for their birthday.
You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore... but let there be spaces in your togetherness. And let the winds of the heavens dance between you. Kahlil Gibran
  • With all the work I have to do I found this the other day ...now it is playing over and over in my head.
Thanks to Amelia
  • By the way I hope you are finding the comment box okay ... it will appear under the post with previous comments above it.I haven't had much of a chance to see how it works properly ...
  • Do you like it ?Does it make leaving comments easier ?Please tell me what you think if you are using on your blog too .
  • I am using Blogger in draft to compose my post and it is very different ...not sure if I like it as much.There is no spell check either.
  • The formating isn't working right I'm using bullet points
  • Forgive me it this doesn't make sense because I am very sleep deprived -worked on business stuff till1am last night, woke with the Brothers' a few times and up early today.
I just realised that it's Thursday Thirteen and I've posted 13 random things without even meaning too.

We used that Kahlil Gibran quote (slightly different editing) for our wedding - lovely, isn't it?

(of course, it also got a few people worried about the state of our christianity - *gasp!* :-D )

You sound awfully busy!! It is a bit like that here, also - hence my complete lack of commenting of late.

@Naomi: he was a bit of modern 20th century prophet and poet. He was supposed to be Christian - I like his quotes.

@Jeanie: yes I noticed a lot of us are busy.It will pass I hope ... I miss blog hopping.

You fit in a remarkable amount into your life so stop and take a breath. Blogs will be around forever to make comments on, your sleep is more important. Have a good weekend.
