You know its nearly Christmas when...

- you get lots of post in nice coloured envelopes
- you get lots of post which isn't bills
- but you still can't fathom who some of it is from (but at least its not bills!)
- you have about seven emails left in your inbox, none of which you REALLY want to answer
- you have very few new ones with which you can delay/ put off the difficult ones
- businessmen get on trains with large carrier bags rather than briefcases
- the train is busier at midnight than at six p.m.
- no-one on the train is sober (except you.. if you're an abbess anyway.. honest!)
- someone dies in Eastenders

I'm sure there are more... tell me tell me..

Remembering What I Enjoy..

Occasionally I forget things. Some stuff like birthdays, names and stuff is a normal human thing, and I don't sweat it so much. But I also forget some other stuff which is not so good. I forget what I enjoy. I don't know how it happens but it does from time to time. And its at these moments that I need a bit of help remembering. So- this is a request for help. What do I enjoy doing? What gives me joy? Leave me a comment.

Who will rid me of this meddlesome...

... piano? It occurred to me yesterday as i nursed ANOTHER bruise on my arm.. that I have had a piano sat in my hallway for 2 months! It seemed like such a good idea at the time but apparently is not... its stuck there and everytime I walk down my hall I have to squeeze past the darn thing- often not successfully! A number of options lie before me: -chop the thing into several hundred pieces -find lots of people who want to move it.. to where I'm not sure -sell it -give it away -pray it away It goes next weekend.. even if it kills me... which it might.. hummm
