Survived another day

Is it me or do technical hitches only occur when you're least equipped to deal with them? Like today for instance - I've just gone back to work after a bank holiday weekend which I extended slightly using my holiday allowance (yes - I begged and pleaded yet again and managed to have some of my...

Whilst updating my little book of 'sayings to lift the spirits' today, I came across this little gem by Christina Rossetti 'Better by far you should forget and smile, than you should remember and be sad.' and following on in the same vein another quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson 'Nothing can bring you...

I'm so tired today that I'm struggling to think of anything to say at all - even the stars are too vague and mundane to comment on today. So I'll just give this advice - anyone who doesn't have a copy of Baz Luhrmann's 'The sunscreen song (class of '99)' go out and get one (or just log on to iTunes... Sign in to see full entry.

According to the stars, I have to keep a light mood and a calm mind so as not to get carried away by life's little irritations. Okay, I can do that - is it just for a few hours? A whole day? Longer?

I must just say that today's blog has been inspired entirely by our fellow blogger dsm tchr whose wise words (a must read) got me thinking. I have a fridge magnet which says 'Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans' which is soooo true. I try not to make plans anymore or... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay - this is a bit disconcerting. After having said yesterday that whenever big changes are taking place in my life, my stars seem to be fairly accurate, today there were none!

Now I know that I take the mickey out of horoscopes - and quite rightly so. I mean, how can they possibly be right for everybody or even the majority of those born under that sign? And they are so vague sometimes that they could be applied to almost anything (as I've demonstrated on occasion).... Sign in to see full entry.

Life is full of disappointments if you believe the horoscopes! I'm still waiting for the paparazzi to make an appearance. The other day my stars told me that my work life was suddenly going to change beyond all recognition, that my role and earnings would sky rocket and that the press would be...

Hi All. Hope everyone's keeping well and still blogging. Had a break to start my bestselling, hollywood blockbuster novel (yeah right!) and now optimistic that I can juggle the blogging and the novel (yeah right again!). But missed you all, so going to give it a go anyway. Today I was the tortoise... Sign in to see full entry.
