February 15th:<\/p>\n
In thy presence is
\nfullness of joy.
\nWhere glad hearts love to gather…
\nPsalms 16:11<\/p>\n
I\u2019m not usually that religious but I found this neat little notebook today with a fun and useful psalm for every day of the year!<\/p>\n
Did everyone have a lovely valentines day? I did. Sort of… it was 40 something degrees and I had to work at a wedding where the bride was pretty much gone by 5pm. It was supposedly a thirty person wedding and they had 22 cases of beer. (!) Then I spent the evening in the company of not one, but two gorgeous boys. I also got a rose! But that was from my friend Sally so I don\u2019t think that counts.<\/p>\n
Today my bedroom had a makeover. I couldn\u2019t paint it, which is unfortunate because I feel like I\u2019m living inside a giant plum. I went though a \u2018stage\u2019 and everything, although a slightly different shade, is definitively purple…<\/p>\n
But we did put up some bookshelves to display, what I have realised, is a very random collection. It seems that I have everything from \u2018The Silver Brumby\u2019 and some other spin-off horse series to \u2018The catcher in the Rye\u2019 to Nick Earls\u2019 \u2018Head Games\u2019 which is by far one of the strangest books I\u2019ve ever tried to read. Maybe it sorts itself out in the end but I never got far enough to find out.<\/p>\n
My cupboards also got a clean out like they\u2019ve never been cleaned out before. So really it was more of an inner makeover. I\u2019ll admit, I\u2019m quite sentimental, if someone gives me something, I just can\u2019t bring myself to give it away. So I\u2019ve somehow managed to shuffle it all down to half it\u2019s size. It\u2019s very cool… now I can open my wardrobe without fear of being squashed by a mountain of hats and scarves and old mascara tubes. I got all my photos together and put them in the SAME box, I put all my letters in to a big tin and managed to get all my old crappy Bali jewelry in to the same bag. I found my old \u2018My Girl\u2019 tape which features such songs as \u2018Do Wah Diddy Diddy\u2019 such good listening \u2013 so that\u2019s going straight in to the car. The dolls and Barbie clothes went on to the top shelf and the best part of the day was definitely when I got to use our new vacuum cleaner. It\u2019s great, it\u2019s like one of those industrial ones so you can see all the yucky bits going inside.<\/p>\n
My mum\u2019s the goodest, she just brought me in some peppermint fudge…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
