• finish the 31 babysteps starter thing
• establish a morning routine & stick to it
• establish an evening routine & stick to it
• to loose some of the weight I put on after giving up smoking (one of last years NYG - nearly 12 months on & only had one cigarette!)
• to organise my wedding in a stress free way
• get some more scrapbooking done
• get my About Me scrapbook up-to-date
• finish my brother's wedding album

RIP Eddie

Another sad day for the pro-wrestling world. Sunday 13th of November - pro wrestler Eddie Guerrero died in his hotel room. This is truely heart breaking. I've watched Eddie's career since his days in WCW, to his mamacita Chyna, remember being so happy when he won the then WWF World Championship belt at Wrestlemania, and watching him Lie, Cheat & Steal. Eddie stole the hearts of many wrestling fans.

From Pro Wrestling.com:
"The initial autopsy reports on Guerrero have come in. WWE.com spoke with Eddie’s widow, Vickie Guerrero, earlier today.

“It was heart failure. It was from his past – the drinking and the drug abuse. They found signs of heart disease. She (the examiner) said that the blood vessels were very worn and narrow, and that just showed all the abuse from the scheduling of work and his past. And Eddie just worked out like crazy all the time. It made his heart grow bigger and work harder and the vessels were getting smaller, and that’s what caused the heart failure. He went into a deep sleep."

I am at a complete loss over this. You will be missed Eddie.

The colour of my Blog

Your Blog Should Be Purple

You're an expressive, offbeat blogger who tends to write about anything and everything. You tend to set blogging trends, and you're the most likely to write your own meme or survey. You are a bit distant though. Your blog is all about you - not what anyone else has to say.

What Color Should Your Blog or Journal Be?

..... and then some

well we stiill have no light in the office but we have lights to the rest of the house. Apparently they are getting a quote to get a new roof. Hmm we'll see how long that takes ;)

Not much is really happening at the moment. Sold some scrapping kits :) Had the flu :(

Ok off to do some housework :-s

Rain, Telsta & other stuff that s**ts me

Today is not a good day.

Saturday night the roof in the room where we have our computers started leaking from the light socket!!!! So we rang the real estate (we rent) & they got builders out & they apparently fixed it. It rained last night & it's leaked again So today we moved everything out of this room a) in case they need to do work and b) in case it rains again (SO's other's computer is covered in water spots). This meant no net until everythings moved ..... so we thought. The move happened at 9am this morning. We got the net back on about 1/2 hour ago! After numerous calls to Telstra (who had no idea what was going on) still no love so we left it & it "miraculously" came back of it's own accord ;)

The guy came to fix the roof. Apparently they nailed it back down the other day but forgot to fix the holes in the tin :-s anywho hopefully that's fixed for now but the electrician hasn't been to look at the light so I'm sitting here on my computer, typing away by candle light lol We don't want to turn the lights back on just in case. Hopefully the electrician will be here 2morrow. I have no kitchen table atm lol Ah dear our house is a mess.

Ah well lovies Off to do more stuff by candle light.

Evening ramblings for this week

Well life is hectic. Work has been flat out (which is great). For those of you who don't know me I co-run my own computing business. I'm just starting out on a small side adventure which came about thru my new interest - scrapbooking. I've decided to venture into the realms of digital scrapbook kit creation (I'll post a link for my site when it's up - still designing it)

2 new kits are in the works. I'm contacting someone re selling & maybe running a challenge with some freebies but that's all up in the air atm.

In my magickal life - things have taken a bit of a spell of not doing anything, not contacting anyone - really nothing witchy at all :( I know bad me lol On the upside thou I bought an awesome pentagram ring for $15 at the Penguin market (http://www.penguinmarket.com.au/) from this really nice gent who owns The Witch's Promise (http://www.thewitchspromise.com.au/). He was very cool & I've finally found somewhere I can get me a nice looking athame at a reasonable price :-D (YAY!! does the happy dance) Oh yeah anpther news flash lol for those who don't know - I'm a wiccan & no not the "Charmed" or "Buffy" type :P (much prefered Faith but that's another story lol - she kicks butt)

Hmm what else........

I've officially been a non smoker now for 6 months and 2 weeks. Yay me lol I hate it. I've put on weight and all I want to do is eat chocolate (which I'm resisting cause I can't afford it & it gives me pimples lol)

TWRAR.org is taking off again we have over 600 members now (WOW that is soo cool) I didn't think we'd get that huge so quick. Hugs to Neen & Stacy for all their hard work (Luvs ya both). If your interested in art come check us out some time (plug plug lol)

Anyways I'm off (wow that's the longest blog ever from me ....so far)

Cheer & thanx for reading. Feel free to comment (as long as it's nice :P)

Today's musings

Well I've nearly finished my 2nd kit (yay me lol) which is suprising considering how busy work has been :-s Check it out here.

I've just signed up with FlyLady to try & organise myself a bit better & clean up my mess ;) we'll see how it goes :-D

Have set up an album here for random pics I feel like sharing. Check out the pics of my furbabies - you'll get to see Mystra playing 'vulture' atop of my speakers & both girls playing with their favourite toy - an empty coke box.

Today's musing - Why is it that men always get soooo sh**y when playing computer games & get vocal at them???? It's just a game ;)

Luv & Hugs
