Friday Feel Good




Here's my contribution to Friday Feel Good, which is hosted by my wonderful man - Whitesnake. Each Friday we will post something that gives us that feel good feeling. Pay Whitesnake a visit if you'd like to join in the fun.


I've had quite an emotional week but thanks to the support of my man, everything appears to be back on track. Thanks to him for all the feel good moments which have helped me through the shitty ones.




Have a great weekend,

How Rude





Sometimes I feel like such a schmuck, like I'm a nerd back at school being taken advantage of. An online acquaintance of mine (who usually doesn't give me the time of day) sent me a message asking a technical question about blogging. Actually, they didn't even have the decency to ask how I was or anything like that. That should have been my first clue to ignore the message. Anyway, I didn't know the answer off the top of my head but I replied to the message and said I'd get back to them. I was having quite a busy day and had stuff of my own to attend to but I did a bit of research and replied to the message with the info. I received another message from said person saying they already had that information and was there a quicker way to do it. I replied that there wasn't and didn't hear from them again. Not a thank you, nothing. Some people have no manners. Why do I bother?

Rant over,

Teaser Tuesdays - Agatha Christie ~ And Then There Were None




Teaser Tuesdays is hosted by the lovely MizB of Should Be Reading.

Here's how it works...

Grab your latest read, open it up and share two sentences from the page. Easy as that. Don't forget to link back to MizB and share the title and author of your book so others can add to their TBR (to be read) list if they wish.



                                
                              
                                 Here's my teaser...


Into that silence came The Voice. Without warning, inhuman, penetrating...












All is well here. It's still cold and snowing in many parts of the country but just rain for us today :)

Have a great day/night and I'll see you again soon.
Happy reading,

The Big Chill



New Zealand is experiencing a one in 50 year polar blast, it's snowing in places that haven't seen snow in decades. Most of New Zealand has experienced snow and hail, closing roads, airports, schools and cutting power to thousands.

There was only a light shower of snow in my city but I had to take a pic. This is the first time I've seen snow where I live since I moved here over 25 years ago.

Stay warm NZ.

I found this on Keith's blog and it made me giggle.


I've had a few feel good moments this week. Spent three days off with my man, which always makes me feel good. Watched the All Blacks kick some Australian butt. Caught up with a friend who I haven't seen for FOUR years and it was great. Bought a new laptop because our old one went on strike.







Our recipe today is Simply delish pasta and tuna...

Weekend Walkabout



Welcome to Weekend Walkabout, a place to share and explore the different corners of our world.


We visited our local beach a couple of times this week because the weather has been much better. Here are my favourite shots of the week, taken by Whitesnake.

Walkabout is a phrase which means to walk around and explore with no specific destination in mind. Have you been walkabout anywhere interesting this week? If so, post your story or pictures to your blog, leave a comment here and a link to your post on our Linky and Whitesnake or KB will come take a look. Don't forget to put a link to Weekend Walkabout so others can find us and join in the fun.







See you tomorrow

More 30 Days Of Me





I'm taking part in the 30 days about me challenge. Here you will learn some interesting and fun things about me.

Here's the 30 day challenge



day 26- what do you think about your friends

Is it just me or are these questions getting silly? Obviously, I love my friends and I enjoy their company or they wouldn't be my friends, LOL!





day 27- why are you doing this 30 day challenge

I wrote a post about why I'm doing this 30 day challenge when I first started (back in September last year, yikes, this has taken me a long time).




day 28- a picture of you from last year and now

Last year

Me now


day 29- in this past month, what have you learned

The first thing I've learned is that it's taken me a very long time to finish this 30 day challenge. There were times when I got bored with it and wanted to just stop doing it but I continued on and finished, so that's a good thing. It's almost a year since I began this challenge and I know I've grown a lot, emotionally, mentally and physically (not physically outwards, hehe, physically on the inside).

I haven't really learned much more about myself from doing this challenge but that wasn't my intention. I wanted to get back to writing on my blog about me as I felt I had lost track of what my blog was about. I think I've done that but I've also learned that my blogging changes as I do and sometimes I write about me, other times poetry, photos and memes and that's OK too. My blog is a reflection of me and my life so whatever I'm in the mood to write about is fine.


day 30- you favourite song

Summer Rain by Whitesnake




Yay, finished.

See ya later
