Shot in my gran's garden in GraskopStuff I love:
- People who reply to comments left on their blogs.
- My new hair. Hah - wait till I wash it tonight and my salon blow-dry is no more. Then I'll hate it for the next week. Predictable.
- Ginger and peach tea with a little honey.
- My cats. One is currently sitting in the drawer of my desk next to me, just so she can be close.
- My camera, which is the most awesome tool. Just looking at my photos on canvas I am amazed at the difference in quality between shots from this camera and my little (lovely for snapshots) compact.
- Entertaining. Our church small group is having a bring and braai tonight and I'm loving deciding what puddings and salads to make. I'm thinking of trying a recipe for Turkish Delight Mousse. Mmmm.
- TSC, who just made me filter coffee and brought it up to my office.
- Being busy. Although I've lost my big retainer client, I've had lots of little jobs come in last week and this week that are keeping me busy and bringing in little bits of money, which will all add up.
- The fact that it's Hobby-X this weekend. Time to stock up on new craft supplies. Must leave the credit card at home! Temptation abounds.
- As always, ending on an even number of bullet points :-)
Stuff I don't love:
- Early morning client phone calls to talk about something that could wait until office hours. Grrr.
- People who don't do what they say they're going to do.
- Admin. 'Nuff said.
- Feeling tired and achy because that's how my body chooses to manifest stress.
- Our mattress. We bought it when we got married and it's supposed to last 20 years. 4 and a bit years in and it already makes a huge dent where TSC sleeps, even though we turn it every two weeks or so.
- My bank balance. It was looking impressive because there was a big deposit from SARS, but it belongs to my dad (not sure why SARS stuck it in my account. Maybe because one person handles our whole family's tax stuff?), so now I'm back to my usual, far less impressive, state ;-)
- Family stuff.
- Annoying and common spelling mistakes (example: lose / loose. If you lose weight, your clothes will be loose).
- Not having enough time to write proper blog posts and settling for lists instead.
Updated at 14:25... THIS POST is now also on my list of things I love... laughed so hard!
