Hello again

Sorry, I've been busy and my work computer is messing around big time and I was feeling a bit low and I couldn't even get my really nice comment through to Cabbages and Kings and the dog ate my homework.
The love of my life kept asking for a post but when Brenda Lee (no, not the singer silly, THE Brenda Lee my cousin) asked why I hadn't blogged for a while I decided to discipline up and get going.
I'm just going to hang a load of laundry, I'll be back.
It seems I took longer than I should and the laptop shut down.
I read a very interesting letter from one of the passengers on the flight that went down in the Hudson River. No tales of great heroics but simply people getting on with the task of rescuing and being rescued. At the end he gave a list of things that are important if you're going to fly. The one that stood out for me was "Keep your body fit so that in an emergency you can help yourself and others" This was so true a couple of nights ago. Dear Mr S was having an early night so that I could catch up on the TV he doesn't watch - dear man. As he lay down he looked toward the window to say goodnight to the moon, instead he saw a rain spider at the top of the wall (my side of the bed I might add) near the ceiling. As the official spider catcher (and releaser) I was jolly glad that I can still climb onto the bedside table and catch a spider.
We had a good Easter weekend, four days off work to chill, most of the family came to the Mad Hatters Tea Party on Easter Sunday, Sion and his ladies were unable to attend and were greatly missed. Sadly, the Easter Bunny whispered to me that he won't be coming around to our house next year, what with the young ones not being so young any more and him being needed elsewhere. We'll miss him, hence the introduction of the tea party. I took out the very best china, it was fun.
So, in the short 16 weeks or so that have passed rapidly this year, my web site which I'm really excited about isn't off the ground yet, soccer is only 62 or so days away and will no doubt be a resounding success, despite the attemps of foolish politicians, foolish workers and the press. I can't believe that Lenny Henry and Dawn French are splitting up after 25 years, so sad. The wonder of 3D has already become nothing special, seen it, moving on. My mum has moved into a lovely care centre where she is one of the youngsters (88 on Monday). My sister has been in hospital and is now recovering. My brother-in-law went on a Vision Quest. Daughter-in-law number two is away in the good old USA ice skating - and we wish the Cape Town skaters much success. RX got a new cell phone. Timothy and his ladies went to Sun City - lucky people - and Samantha and I did nothing much. (I won't mention Grey, Okay ?)
On 24 April, Wizards in Claremont are having some sort of Holistic re-opening day so I shall be off to that. Yay.
We recently watched a lovely little film called Son of Rambow. Slow begining but what a treat.
Today, our premier, expensive TV channel is showing Rugby, followed by Rubly and for those of you who not yet glassy eyed, more Rugby. Thankfully my lover and I are off to a wedding.
