While I was waiting for Mum to come for coffee I finally broke down and wrote to Mick. Not a long letter...I just can't handle a long letter to him right now. Just a short card. I told him how much I love him and wish I could come to see him and meet my nephew. I told him if he needs anything to let... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning gang, I can't stay at the moment...Mum's on her way for coffee in just a few minutes so I have to get off and keep the phone line open for a bit. BTW...I'm still waiting for RobDon's response to the question I asked him last night!!!!... I'll be back as soon as I can. Have a great... Sign in to see full entry.

I've been sitting here thinking about Mick and that set me off to thinking about a post I read in RobDon67's blog a while back about his hairy nipples... Okay, so here's my question... Just why is it that Aussie men get off on exposing thier nipples (hairy or otherwise) to poor, innocent... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm not as much of a people person as I used to be. Frankly, I was too much of a people person when I was younger, and it caused some unhealthy issues for all involved. Now that I look back on things, I can completely understand why some of the people in my life are no longer here. I think I'm a... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm still waiting for reactions to the beginning of my re-telling of LENA'S story... Sign in to see full entry.

I still have a cold, and I think it's causing me to be a tad overly emotional today. Well, maybe not so much the cold itself as the spasms its been leading to. Anyway, I was just reading someone's post and glanced off to the side to see my name on the people list. I don't know why, but I suddenly... Sign in to see full entry.

I'd like to dedicate the re-telling of LENA'S story to my dear friend Ariel70, because he inspired me to start working on it again after I read his post... LENA LOST 21 April, 1945-Moskow, Russia It’s raining again today. Lena covers her head with her thin silk scarf and stares through the mist at... Sign in to see full entry.

Hi gang, Well, it's time for this ladymonk to get back to life!! I've just had breakfast, so now it's time to hit the shower!! After which, I'll get back to work on my assignment for Jane and hopefully finally write to Mick as well. I really need to get back to my Russian studies as well. I've... Sign in to see full entry.

I've been had!! Not that I'm not feeling better...I am...but this damn blob is refusing to vacate. It happened AGAIN last night...More coughing fits and more spasms... I've heard that brandy is good for a cough, as is cognac...Normally, I wouldn't indulge in either one, but at this point I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

I hate it when my plans get foiled!!!! I was all set to sit down and write Mick a nice card when I suddenly realised the one I want to send him has gone missing!!!! Alas, I'll have to rummage through the stationary drawer...But I'm too tired tonight, so I'll have to do it tomorrow. Sign in to see full entry.

In a few minutes, I'm going to write Mick a short card. At this point, I've decided not to say too much. I think it's better to let him come to me in his own time. That way, he won't feel pressured to talk to me about things he may not be comfortable with. I'll just let him know I'm still here for... Sign in to see full entry.

Good afternoon, gang... If anyone has been wondering where I've been since my post of this morning, I was sleeping. I just now woke up and am going to eat something in about an hour or so. The Advil cold and sinus I took FINALLY worked!!!! I'm feeling a bit foggy now, but that's because I haven't... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning, gang... Another rough one, last night. A couple of times I coughed so hard I thought I heard my back snap. It didn't though...THANK GOD. Roommie and I have decided...The very next sick person who walks through this door is GOING TO BE SHOT!!!! Not only to put them out of their misery,... Sign in to see full entry.

Greetings, o happy blogging friends of mine...I hope you all had a fairly decent Tuesday thus far. Wow, do I feel icky!!!! My throat hurts again and I'm clogged up once more. I'm having more spasms today than I've had in months....Literally. Still, I am hungry, so there may be hope for this poor... Sign in to see full entry.

It is said that anyone who knocks upon the door of the Cathedral of Notre Dame seeking sanctuary will be given it. If only I could get to Paris!! I need sanctuary right now more than any of you could possibly imagine. When visiting France, my one and only regret was that I never actually made it to... Sign in to see full entry.

Mick always ends up being able to give me a good laugh, even if I don't particularly feel like it. Let me give you an example of what I mean... You see, Mick is reeeally into Rugby and when ever he plays a game he usually writes to tell me how successful (or unsuccessful) his team was. His brother... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, I've just finished the first draft of UNCLE SOLOMON'S CAT...Yes, already!! I'm seventeen words over my limit of five hundred, but I'm not used to writing such short stories, so as I said yesterday...It's going to be a challenge. I really like the idea of the story, but it's definitely going to... Sign in to see full entry.

I had a terrible night. Roommie and I were in bed by ten, asleep by eleven. But surely enough, it happened. At four o'clock this morning, I went into a coughing fit that lasted no less than two hours. No matter what position I put myself into, I couldn't stop the coughing. No matter if I laid down...

Some of you may remember that back in August I was forced to take a leave of absense from my current writing course. I finally got round to sending in my fourth assignment for Jane at the beginninng of January, and I got it back today. As I thought, she preferred UNCLE SOLOMON'S CAT over KATIE AND...

This is the long dragged out continuation of the story of the last summer Mick and I spent together. It makes me smile every time I remember it, and I hope it'll make you all smile, too...
