random thoughts...

is about all i have the energy for tonight...no structured essay or soapbox appearance i'm afraid...

got a lovely message from a very good friend who i sent a little birthday treat to - she loved it! it made me smile when i heard her message of thanks - and if you read this: you are welcome, i hope you will find something lovely for your home and you deserve it :-)

learning is a truly wonderful gift - guess i never realised that early on in life - i always saw school/uni as something i had to do to please everyone else - now i'm studying something i love! what a difference it makes...i can see now where politicians and education advocates get some of their passion from...maybe just maybe i'll find myself getting on that bandwagon at some later stage - no no no, not the politician one, the advocate one!!! relax...

to all those cockroaches making a home in my kitchen, enjoy it while it lasts - come 3pm friday the 'bug man' is coming and i will be having a farewell party in your honour later that night...

iridescent - what a beautiful word...it came into my head lastnight and i guess it hasn't left - am now madly trying to find an appropriate place to use it!

and lastly, just acknowledging that julie rennie (a former teacher of mine in high school and who passed away in 1985/86) has been ever present in my thoughts in the last week...thank you for being a wonderful and encouraging teacher, the world is a lesser place without you...

nite
