Survived another day

The stars are telling me to watch out for those who may wish to rain on my parade by bombarding me with information that doesn't really connect with the way I feel. They got it right! Three lots of horoscopes and not one of them made any connection wtih me (apart from the 'not connecting' bit of... Sign in to see full entry.

Why is it so difficult to live in the 'here and now'? Or is that just me? It can't be. My stars pointed out to me that I'm fed up of living on hope and putting happiness off until tomorrow. That's not entirely true - I wouldn't say I'm unhappy but there are certain things in life that I do hope for... Sign in to see full entry.

Six days ago I had a quandary. I had an idea for a new novel plot whilst already having started my first novel and wasn't sure whether or not to abandon the first in favour of the second. I haven't had time to work on either since and today I opened a book which gave me the answer in black and... Sign in to see full entry.

Not sure I should be writing this at the mo. Me thinks I should be running round like a headless chicken doing the cleaning - that is, after reading my stars (which of course I take absolutely no notice of!!). I was perfectly relaxed, preparing to spend a day in with my studies, when I happened to... Sign in to see full entry.

I don't know if it's my age and the 'crap-o-meter' (as a fellow blogger put it) is overloading, but more and more things seem to irritate me these days. For instance, I get annoyed when an advert for the iPhone proudly tells me I can call a taxi to the airport on it - hello? can't you do that on any... Sign in to see full entry.

Ah, survived another day! The heating wars have started up again in earnest. It's spring and to some people that means t-shirts and shorts and open windows regardless of temperature. Now call me strange if you like but a top temperature of 13 degrees does not have me stripping down to the bare... Sign in to see full entry.

Two of my horoscopes are telling me to slow down today. Well, I really don't have any choice as I was up half the night with a new plot for a novel going round and round in my head. Now I'm confused as I like the new plot but have already started writng the previous one. After all is said and done,... Sign in to see full entry.

Isn't it strange how we find it so easy to feel compassion for those less fortunate than ourselves? I'm only asking this because today I was the less fortunate one and everyone was lovely towards me. Well, actually maybe they were laughing at me but I don't care because the atmosphere in the office... Sign in to see full entry.

Why is it that whatever makes us feel better in life is usually the last thing we want to do or should do at the time we most need it? Confused? I'll demonstrate - whenever I'm feeling down (usually on a Sunday when my partner leaves until the following weekend!), I find that writing makes me forget... Sign in to see full entry.

None of my stars made sense today. I tried stretching them and moulding them any which way I could but I couldn't get them to fit ME. Strange because I looked at several different ones. One of them even adds the personal touch and calls you by your name (the app on my phone!). I like it because it... Sign in to see full entry.
