we have a new housemate since shane, my sister's dog came to live with us a couple of weeks ago. it seemed to be going well, until his need to mark territory met the piano. sigh. i guess all parties have to adjust. he doesn't seem to miss the other dogs which is good.

it's nice to come home to a smiling dog and wagging tail. plus i'm getting more exercise now that i have to take him on walks. makes up for having to stockpile plastic bags for poop scooping and having his fur everywhere (really everywhere!).

shane, woof woof woof woof arf!

blegh

with the birthdays of my school friends (not to mention the birthdays of children of my friends, sister and cousins) it is quite obvious that time is swiftly passing by. i am being acclimatized to being firmly in my mid-30s. no longer am i as fit, foolish or friendly as i used to be. instead i find that the pounds pour on and can only be scrapped off with much effort and with a long lead time. i'm trying to take things as they come and yet be visionary. i realize that i need to stop trying to win a popularity contest and be happy in my (flabbier) skin.

thank goodness for my friends who are willing to accept me - flaws and contradictions and all.

ps thanks to brunch at sleme & tut's have gotten back into my guitar hero craze. barracuda plays in my head the whole damn day. sigh.

new beginnings

my little nephew is 20 days old today. can't believe that this little thingy has taken over the lives of the 3 adults he has running helter-skelter all over the house for him.

he's an adorable little baggage who can win u with his inquisitive eyes and rosebud smile, before bawling his head off. thankfully, i get spared the night feeds and only wake up when the cries are the highest. as aunty, i get to play and change him in the daylight hours (cushy job actually).

will certainly miss the bub when i leave in 2 days, but can't wait to see him grow.

breathing in saline

yes, it's been ages since i posted. life has just overwhelmed me with working on the new season, end of year appraisals, travelling to adelaide for a trade show and festival (fun!) and then preparing for this trip. am stateside in chilly michigan to visit my sister and her new bub. 1 week old, he's a red little minky whose face makes me laugh out loud. can't tell who he looks like more (as in all babies), but his eyes are grey.
looking forward to getting to know him.
