Nothing major. I still have an urge to completely makeover ukmelia.com aswell but I haven&#8217;t found a look I like yet. I&#8217;m feeling better today, I&#8217;m just gonna deal with the issue and move on. I get so sick of going to pieces when money becomes an issue. I mean, fuck sake, I&#8217;m *cough cough* years old and I&#8217;ve been in tighter spots so what is the big deal? Bill Bryson&#8217;s father used to tell him, &#8216;There&#8217;s always someone who is worse off than you.&#8217; and he used to think, &#8216;So?&#8217; But I can see hid dad&#8217;s point. I could be living in a car and dumpster diving for dinner.<\/p>\n<p>So tonight, I shall take the kidlet to the pool and we&#8217;ll stay there until it closes. We&#8217;ll have a good time and get totally worn out. Then we&#8217;ll come home and try to catch the International Space Station passing overhead before collapsing in bed. Then I promised to rent &#8216;What a Girl Wants&#8217; for her. Typical teen cheese movie but Colin Firth is in it. Yum yum. Eye candy for mum.<\/p>\n<p>Next week we&#8217;re having a service for my aunt. My uncle finally decided to buy a spot for her ashes at a cemetery, so the family is going to gather and Reverend Karen who officiated at her funeral will say a few words and then it&#8217;s back to my grandparents for strawberry shortcake. Kind of an odd evening but then my granny is rather odd. My cousin&#8217;s coming down for this and is staying the week so we&#8217;ve made some plans to take my daughter ice skating (he plays goalie for a hockey team up in Wisconsin) so they will skate around and I will fall down a lot. I&#8217;m not the most graceful person in the world \ud83d\ude42 Rick&#8217;s also bringing his telescope down as Mars is supposed to be particularly bright next week and there&#8217;s also a meteor shower going on so the kid will enjoy that a lot &#8211; so will I for that matter, I love looking at the stars.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, off I go. Just got some fabulous new graphics software I want to play with.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ok so&#8230; I got a little bored this morning and tweaked this blog a little.
