Woo! I found my calender and put it up today!
lol. Simple pleasures.

Even better though, I put up some of my ribbons the other day! only 44 of them, but it's a start! I had been trying all sorts of ways to put them up, but nothing was working how I wanted it to. Mum came up with an idea, and it's working brilliently!! I love it, it looks GREAT!

Now just to get the other 123 of them up...

Annnnnnnyway. Me and CJ have been walking the boys every day except in the weekend (she walked Gollum, but I wasn't around to walk Ed) We went for a walk up a track in the bush, it's bloody steep going up, but is brillient fun to run down again!!! It's a good 40-50 min walk too, so it's good for all of us!

It was mothers day last sunday. I only got mum some chocolate and snifters (mmmmmmmmm, snifters.....) The kids think I didn't get her anything though, cos I didn't give it to her in bed in the morning when they gave her theirs! I just didn't want the kids to steal half her choccy and lollies, so gave it to her when she got up and left the kids in bed :p

I'm touch typing now. I've been able to do it fairly well for ages, but I'm in the habit of looking at the keyboard anyway. I hardly look at the keyboard, but I do look. I'm a pretty quick typer (or I'd get awfully bored with all this typing I do!) when I look at the keyboard, but I always end up with stupid typos like thsia dn liek thsi. hehehe! My fingers just get ahead of myself sometimes, so I'm gonna try to touch type so that I can look at the screen and see any mistakes I make as I make them, and so be able to fix them! wow, this is fun! hehehe.

Ok, no plans for today. I might go have breakfast and take Fleck with me. Got a doctors appointment tomorrow. Will walk the boys today, and probably tomorrow. Going to have fish and chips and donalds with dad tomorrow too, dunno if i'll stay with dad or not tho. I should at least go see him on saturday, cos I haven't seen much of him in a while!!!

I'm so chuffed about my ribbons still, just wait until I get all 163 up!!!!

It's been good. Me and CJ have bee taking Ed and Gollum out for a walk and run every day. It's great having someone else to go out with too!!!
Me and Ed were playing around in the paddock the other day, I didn't have any food for bribes, nor did he have his halter on, but I got him standing his front feet ontop of a log like a circus horse, and got a cute pic of him 'smiling' while there:


hehe. He's FAT and hairy, so our daily walks are good, even if they're only for 10 mins!

I'm going to head out to Margarets soon, the blacksmith is coming to do everyone's feet this morning, and I haven't been out there in ages so it'll be great! Jaimee is going there too and wants to go for a drive with crackers, so hopefully Kirsten will come too and we'll all go out!

Fleck is moulting pretty bad, and so is really snuggly. She demands I pat and scritch her constantly, so yesterday I decided to sit there and time just how long she'd demand it for. 45 mins later........!!!!!!!!!!!! Whew, my arm was starting to go numb! hehe.

Hmm, it's getting to be winter all right! Frosts in the morning, clear skys and brilliently sunny days, but the temp isn't getting much over 10 degrees.... brrr

There was an earthquake yesterday morning, it was on the other side of the country, but we were fairly swinging over here! it as at 3:40am though, so not many people felt it. It woke me though!

I went to see Ed yesterday, but ended up only giving him a brush and going again. I might go take him for a walk today though... As long as my hands don't freeze up typing first!

A florecent light down in the basement randomly fell out the other day. No one was down there, we just heard it from the house and went to look. the floor is concrete, the bulb is over a metre long and very fine glass. it shattered EVERYWHERE! omg it was a mess! We swept the worst of it up, and I vacumed the whole place today. I know I'll have missed some, I just hope it doesn't end up in anyones feet!

I still haven't gotten a stamp to send that application form away. Haven't found anything else yet either. Stupid job hunting! I am going to be looking after someones farm later in the month. I'm also getting some money for these felted animals. WINZ doesn't like those though, they're not a proper job. *sigh*

And so I carry on.....

I'm addicted to needle felting. I've been 'commisioned' 4 animals from a freind (i'm getting payed for it)! hehe. Got the elephant nearly done for them. Made a dog for dad yesterday.

Went out and met Joc and Pete today. They're going to auckland at the end of the month, and so they need someone to look after their house and animals for them. So I'm going to (again, I'm getting payed for it)! :D

so I'm happy, any extra money I can get my hands on it great!!!

Tomorrow the water filter guy is coming to put a water filter in. The town water is incredibly horrible, so it'll be good to have the filter in!!

Tomorrow I also need to spend quite some time online, I've got to do some on my site, but first need to switch over and sort stuff for horseland (a SIM game). Other than that I need to go see Ed tomorrow afternoon sometime. I need to get money for on my cell cos it's run out. and I need to fill in the application form for the job plus see what other jobs there are. Hmm, lte see how much of that gets shunted into tuesday!

Went to see Margaret today too, but there was no one home.....

Went to see Ed, and Gollum's owners were there. Gollum is a Timor pony, not a shetland like I've been saying!! She has a wee boy who is small enough to ride him. They have a gorgeous wee saddle for him! I long reined Ed around the paddock, weaving through everything we could find! hehe. I need to see what I can do to that cart too...

I'm tired. Night!
