Precipitation

I know, I know - I said redesign but life has been crazy.  This is not in a bad way, just in a crazy, busy way.  I’m about to embark on a week off so I might actually get some R and R time rather than just playing catch up hehe. 

I’m going for a hearing test tomorrow.  It will be good to find out if I actually have a problem or I just need to put more effort into hearing hehe. 

I’m almost hankering to travel again.  I want to go back to the States again but I don’t see it happening for the forseeable future.  I need to win the lottery hehe!

God is restoring me.  I’ve had some times where it’s been difficult to know where I fit but God is as always looking after me and patiently loving me.  I don’t think I ever realised how different I would feel leaving ministry yet staying on at the Church.  It’s an important learning curve for me though.  I’m clay to be molded.

Well, It’s really hot here and way past bedtime so I’d better go but I wanted to check in with you.

G’dnight!

On Wednesday, I felt like I did something really worthwhile.  We had a tour of Adult students come in.  My boss decided that I would be the one to do the tour because I am the youngest (hehe!).

What was really cool about these students was that they weren’t school kids.  They were primarily made up of Mothers with children and people upskilling so that they could get a job.  I took them on the tour and they asked some good questions. 

Afterwards they explored a bit more of the library and actually hung around.  This is an achievement because I suspect that none had qualifications that were job marketable.  I suspect they weren’t fans of school either .

Some days, it’s just great to go to work!

What is an amusing anecdote about a pet friend in your life (past or present)?

Mac is really funny because we were walking down the beach one day.  Other people were also walking their dogs.  We came across these people walking their really big black dog.  Mac feels like he needs to protect me at this stage so he starts growling in his really large dog way. 

The other dog wonders who is barking at him so he wanders over to sniff Mac. Mac suddenly decides that he doesn’t want the dog to pay attention to him anymore and runs behind me expecting me to protect him lol.  The dog follows him and eventually I’m tied up in a leish (at which point the owners take their dog away) hehe.

Another funny story is Toby getting too close to the gas heater when I was turning it on.  His whiskers became curly from the heat (I should say that Toby wasn’t hurt at all, but it was hillarious to see a big golden retriever with one side of whiskers curled).  It gave me much amusement.  He also smelt a bit burned.  Glad he wasn’t hurt!

What is a gift a pet gave to you when you really needed it?

Mac gives me unconditional affection all of the time.  He brightens my day the way he waits for me to get home.  Pausing to hug dog… aww he’s so cute!

Share a picture of one or more of your pets - extra points for amusing photos.

Thanks Janie!

Just have a random craving for something you don’t even particularly enjoy? I feel like a slice of pizza hehe.

I’d love you to read the previous post. Please do ask for the password.  It’s only passworded to protect it from unknowns.  I’m not ready to share my music with the whole world yet hehe.

Due to life, the redesign may not happen until Sunday but they say good things are worth the wait right?  Hehe!
