My good friend the other day commented that she tries to concentrate on the positives in her day. I am the kind of person who needs to be reminded to do this so it was great that she said it. I seem to get tangled up in the nitty gritty and forget about the big picture too.
It was a well timed comment. It's been one hell of a narky weekend here at grumblebum central. I'm wondering if the kids are getting sick again (or maybe are sick already). Arj is almost walking so perhaps he's just frustrated. He's raring to go but can only make it about 5 steps.
Some good things:
Enjoying sewing, sewing, sewing. I miss it when I'm not busy.
Listening to Sia - great sewing music and good for drowning out grumpers.
The almond tree next door has started to blossom (negative point: it's the only tree they didn't knock down with a backhoe a while back in their quest to have the largest, flattest, greenest lawn in our suburb - see I struggle to hang on to the good points).
Arj looks so, so cute toddling around.
Chloe has been singing lengthy songs about singing songs and having a lot of dvds.
Hot cheese scones.
Not having to cook the dinner (negative point: because the sink is leaking into my sewing room in a huge and scarey way and we don't want to wash up in the bathroom).
Red polka dot racing swimsuit I saw at the pool today. I may have to get me one.
This handbag

Ooooo Suse ... I'm liking the handbag!!! Was just on their website yesterday liking a whole lot of their stuff. I don't think you are negative ... I think you are funny xx
I think I know how you feel, which is so easy in winter - especially on yukky old days like today!
Anthropology is a very scary place, I want to buy it all! (and the perfect figure to wear the stuff...)
sia rocks! listen to her Buttons song if you need a pick me up :)
