As part of my encouragement to get blogging again, I’m following a list of things to blog and/or post about (seeing as some are pictures). I’m not particularly interested in following the list in order, and I’ve already missed a couple of days so it’s not going to be perfect, but it’s a good guide to get some blog writing going.
Today’s item is to take a photo of myself and post a description of how my day was.
My day started at about 5:00am when the dog woke up, but she was fine once I fed her and let her out for a pee. I’m really tired today as we were out late at a friend’s house for dinner, so I slept in till about 7:30 before getting up, having some breakfast and getting ready to go out.
I went and had a massage at 9:00am, to get rid of some tension and pain in my neck & shoulders, which was really relaxing – something I really needed. I went to the supermarket after that to grab a few things, then to get some breakfast. Took that home, ate with Michael and I’ve pretty much been sitting at my computer the rest of the day.
Michael is going out tonight with Dominic (husband of one of my work colleagues) so I’m heading up to their house, taking some dinner with me as she’s home with a nearly 4-week old baby, and we’re going to sit and watch Meet the Little Fockers.
I guess after that I’ll be coming home and going to bed!

I will never tire of spending time with my husband. As much as we can clash at times – and I mean clash – I have never been so in love or so devoted to anyone or anything in my entire life. If you know me personally, you’ll know that I’m such an independent person and I love my personal space and time alone. I would give all of those ideals up if it meant I never had to spend another day without him.
I will never tire of sitting in front of the computer. I’m a total geek and if I could, I’d spend all day here. I listen to my podcasts, I visit forums (hai youz @ Veracity!), I surf the web, I type blog entries (sometimes…), I just love my computer and sitting down to relax in front of it.
I will never tire of having pets. My pets complete my life. They’re our babies, and always will be. They love us unconditionally and never hold grudges. They snuggle you when you’re sad and get you up when you’re down. As much as it drives me nuts that they wake up at 2 and 3 o’clock in the morning, I’d do anything for them.
I will never tire of driving. I’ve always loved driving, and since getting my licence at the end of October, I can’t get enough. Sure, fuel is expensive and maintenance is a bitch, but just being able to get up, get in the car and go whenever I feel like gives me the most incredible sense of freedom I’ve never felt before.
I will never tire of Vera Wang Princess perfume. It’s become my signature scent and I just adore it. The best thing happened the other day – Michael came into the bedroom, while I was putting my makeup on, to say goodbye. He reached out for a hug and asked me if I’d put my perfume on, because during the day he’d occasionally get a whiff of it and it would remind him of me. <3
I will never tire of true friendship. Growing up and being in the workforce has proven to me who my real friends are – they’re the ones who’ll stand up for you, tell you if someone has gone behind your back, invite you into their homes when you show up unannounced, and spend time with you even if you’re feeling like you’re being overbearing.
I will never tire of nature. My spirituality is a huge part of me and some nights I look up at the moon and I can just feel the energy of the earth under my feet. As much as I am a technology geek and could never live without my computer or iPhone, I do love being out in nature and I always feel better after that reconnection.
I’m currently blogging from my new iPad! This is an early birthday present from my wonderful hubby, I really wanted one since playing with his mum’s iPad at Christmas and we decided to purchase it on the credit card and pay it off.
So for my birthday, which is on the 14th February, I’m asking family that if they want to give gifts, that money toward paying it off or iTunes gift cards are all I want
So I haven’t blogged in a while. I’m finding that I’m too busy doing other stuff to sit down and think about blog entries (although I had an idea for one in the shower this morning hmm). I find it hard enough to motivate myself to get stuff done around the house which, in all honesty, is more important than writing a blog entry. I want to blog, I just can’t think of anything to write about!
What do you do when you know you want to type a post but can’t think of anything?
I love this country and wouldn’t ever live anywhere else.
Australians all let us rejoice
For we are young and free
With golden soil and wealth for toil
Our home is girt by sea.
Our land abounds in nature’s gifts
Of beauty rich and rare
In history’s page let every stage
Advance Australia Fair
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia Fair
Beneath the radiant Southern Cross
We’ll toil with hearts and hands
To make this Commonwealth of ours
Reknowned of all the lands
For those who’ve come across the seas
We’ve boundless plains to share
With courage let us all combine
to Advance Australia Fair
In joyful strains then let us sing
Advance Australia Fair
Whilst I have done paid blogging in the past, I find it’s not productive enough to make any amount of money unless you’re constantly doing it, which can in turn piss off your readers. So I’ve made the decision to go ad-free. If I mention products or services at all, they’ll be my genuine opinions on things I actually utilise, and I will not be paid for them.
