This may be my last entry for a few days, so Merry Christmas, or equivalent!

Glenn: you should start getting ready soon...

Yes, I know - I've been offline for a bit. I was in London for a few days visiting my Arsenal-supporting cousin Sarah G. (note to Glenn - she's the sister of the Elite player!) who has just spent a fortune buying a shoebox-sized flat.

I'm finally now ready for Christmas. Also, you can blame me for Leona winning X Factor, because I voted for her.

I haven't posted for a while because my brother-in-law was staying for us for a week, and I fell behind with net stuff.  I'm reminded of a passage near the beginning of Watership Down where the presence of a visitor is described as "tedious".  I hope he's not reading this!



I've decided I don't like myspace very much.  Yahoo seems a lot friendlier, so I think I'll be hanging around here more.  On the plus side, myspace admin emailed me to tell me that the person who stole my picture has had their profile deleted.  (I already knew, but I'm pleased that this is why it happened, rather than the offender deleting it out of embarrassment.)  Ha ha!

It looks like my husband has two more pointless crushes on cartoon characters: Kim Possible (pictured) and The Little Mermaid.  At least he has a "type", I suppose.  I still haven't succeeded in educating him about using abrasives on non-stick cookware.  It isn't that hard, is it?  (I want a new cake tray.)



I've had less time recently to work on my blog because the kids have been taking a lot of my time.  Excuses, excuses.



I went to David's school today to have a short talk with his class about disabilities, since a few kids have been asking him about me, and his stock answer of "she was born like that" obviously isn't completely working.  I talked to them briefly and gave a demonstration of hair brushing and writing, and answered a few questions (such as "Does it hurt?" and "What's THAT?").  I think it went fairly well and I hope I satisfied their curiosity.

I'm still pissed off at the fake profile on myspace who stole my picture, so I've reported it (see my myspace page for details - there's a link in the blogroll).  I'm starting to consider toning down my internet presence for a while.



It doesn't help that I've had the theme tune from "Bodger and Badger" stuck in my head all day either!

Have a look at the link below.  There are two identical pictures that will appear on the screen.

Almost 8,000 people were tested to see if they could find the (3) differences, in the two pictures.

Only 19 found all 3.



See how observant you are.

If you find all 3, you're one of very few people who are able to do this.

Entry for October 16, 2006

I've been asked what's keeping me so busy - well, I've decided to spend more time with my family, as they say about disgraced politicians!  I should have some more time for net-related time wasting this week though.



Welcome to my latest (although not newest - I've known her for years) 360 friend, Nicole!
