    I was driven demented trying to buy a movie online that is produced by a US channel, Amazon, Itunes, HBO themselves... they're all blocking me because of the region thing. But I wanted to buy it all legit, and it's not available in any shape or form to Europe !

    Anyway, TH I found "a kind friend whom I've yet to meet" who's letting me download it now.

    Can't wait to watch it.

    They're very cool !
    We're all buying footwear online now, it's gas, a few years ago people would have been weary of buying shoes online.

    That reminded me, and made me very TH, that I bought a pair of Rieker summer slip ons last week ! I had a pair of same style different colour/pattern before, they lasted me ages, and then when they were shook I kept them as slippers for another year, they were that comfy.

    This morning I'm the only person in the office due to various doctors appointments and meetings. Pure, quiet bliss until after lunchtime!

    The morning is better than forecasted.

    Christ I'd love that. No boundaries in this office. Girl next to me roaring down the phone at whoever she's talking to. Give it a f** rest!

    It's an absolute joy! The 'mature' gentleman I share an office with can't work a mouse properly. Every time he needs to move the cursor he lifts the mouse about a centimeter, moves it in the air, then drops it. Since he seems to do nothing but play solitaire all day this can get quite irritating!

    I'm on lunchtime every Tuesday but I'm free just before and I just spent a lovely half hour sunning myself in the car ! Finally a bit of Vit D ! Back to the grind now nicely refreshed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 32,634 ✭✭✭✭Graces7


    This made me chuckle so I think it qualifies.. One of those unintentionally serenditiy timings you could never organise

    Blowing a gale here and the path between the dwelling and the old cowshed becomes a windtunnel..

    So I bobbed out fast to letdog "go pee", and maybe find something to burn

    My big boy cat comes racing towards me so i welcome him and open the door to let him go in...

    To realise that he was in fact being hotly pursued by Stinkertom , who tries to stop when he realises I AND DOG are there.. he screeches to an inelegant halt, cartoon style.... dog sees him , and the chase is ON .. dog cannot get through the gap the tom has used but she races back past me and round the dwelling after Stinkertom and BOY< can she run .

    My cat safe inside, dog exercised, and me relaxed as only laughter can effect.

    As ridiculous as it sounds, got a diagnosis that accounts for how rubbish I have been as a person for the last couple of weeks, and that is making me relieved and happy.
    Looking forward to being back at work to say no actually, not just really struggling with workload, just ridiculously exhausted from this actual condition I have had...

    Not to rain on your parade, but you need to be exposed to UV rays for vit. D, and the car windows usually have a built-in UV protection. Still, it's lovely to warm your bones in the car, I used to bring a book and have my lunch in there. :) And the sunlight still helps with the mood, anyway. :)

    The perfusion of flower and growth in the garden. Daffodils and hyacinths (wonderful scent) in full flower. Some Perennial flowers have put on a foot of growth in a week. Bellflowers, poppies, lilies, geraniums, monkshood etc. all bursting into growth. Flowering shrubs all budded and promising a great display. The regrowth of Spring always warms my heart.

    Back home now and it's miserable, but anyway, to stick with the botanical trend, I'm very TH that my little crab apple tree is finally flowering yearly, and this year there are more (beautifully red) flowers than last year.
    It only took about 5 to 6 years after planting. :rolleyes:

    The kids have lost a plot. There is a dog running around the yard. It's very funny!
