Just a few quick links of fun/cool (or both) sites I found on my daily surfin' trip:

Watch the World's population grow before your very eyes: Freaky!

Les Toile's Pinup Gallery: Fun, original artwork of well proportioned ladies.

Kitchen Math : Useful measurement convertor, even translating vague measurements (such as "a pinch") into the real thing

The Quilting Bee : Aaaahhh :)

Oh, and check out THIS FANTABULOUS OFFER from Auto FX: WOW!!! (and thanks George for the fab new word :)

Finally, Hi Daisy, Hannah & Kat: Thanks for the mail - love you guys too :)

Oops! I just realised I've been adding entries here to the bottom of the page, not the top. Had an e-mail saying they missed my posts (which I thought was weird!) but they'd only been looking at the top entry which stayed at 15 sept. Sorry!

Just uploaded this weeks linkware set - something a little mystical and fun for Hallowe'en : The Watcher

Tom's coming home for the weekend - whoopeeeeeee - so I'm picking him up from the train this afternoon.

Note to self: Do not pass motherly comments if he's unwashed, WITH someone, or sporting a goatee...

Just a quickie - he's home, fine, washed and beardless. And he came alone :)

Saturday tomorrow which isn't my fave day - everyone always needs to be in different places at different times and I've no petrol (gas) in my car so will have to make the 30 minute journey to fill up before I start taxiing people around.
Where did proper weekends go? Sigh...

Haven't blogged much here for a few days. It's like that ya know - sometimes I don't feel like I have much to say. I could do the "got up / showered / ate / shopped / worked" kinda thing but can't see much pleasure in reading (or writing) that, and have to be soooo careful not to constantly go on (and on and on) about the kids, which let's face it, are a major part of my life. I love my kids and enjoy recalling every moment with them but have to remember that not everyone wants to read about "little jimmy's latest amusing saying." I don't have a little Jimmy as you know (did that come out right?!) but ya get my drift? :)

Uploaded a couple more linkware sets : Dorothy Grows Up (which I love - sorry for the own trumpet-blowing there) and Witch Way which (see, the mis-spelling was deliberate) is ok if you like cute kids and hallowe'en stuff.

Going to get my hair done this afternoon - did I tell you it's BRIGHT RED now?
Looks cool (according to the kids - whoops! mentioned them again!) but is pretty high-maintenance, and those of you who know how I feel about hairdressers will sympathise with my 'Tuesday's lost hours' (time spent sitting down, chatting about the weather (British thing) when I could be doing something sooooo much more productive.)

Oh, and found this site when I was looking for something yesterday. Made me smile :)

A finishing stuff off day - lots of bits and half-done stuff which glares at me every time I open my site folders. I always mean to finish things but get distracted and start on something else - hence all the bits.

Can't write anymore tonight - my keyboard's gone freaky on me and the caps lock/reg keyboard have interchanged themselves which is making typing veeerrry confusing. Maybe it needs a rest (or more likely I'm going to have to spend ages tomorrow morning tweaking everything to get it right again.)

15 oct 2002

Going to see my accountant in a minute and prove to her once again how stupid I really am :)

Will post more later...
