And RL starts again … May 12, 2009

For the past two weeks I could easily abandon that thing which internet people call Real Life (RL for short) :daydream: . Today, however, RL, started again and this morning I went back to work. Still coming back slowly to work fulltime, I only work Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. Just before the two week break, Tuesday mornings came with it. Though I loved I could abandon RL, in time it wasn’t actually bad to be back at work and I rather enjoyed myself .
The thing I do is give gymnastics to my class, and after that, I’ll be firstly helping children from my own class, and later children from another class. At least, that’s what I’ve talked through with a collegue. Tomorrow, I will be back to teaching 21 children again :duck: .

On a brighter note, after a two week absense, dancing class will start tomorrow again as well :dance: . I’ve really, really missed that. I can’t understand I’ve survived two weeks without dancing . Well, technically I’ve survived those two weeks, but then again, I have been being a pain to my neighbours, since I did the dancing in my appartment . I just can’t wait what my dance teacher has planned for tomorrow evening…
I’ve also been thinking of going to archery class :archer: . I’ve been thinking about this for years really, and I finally discovered there’s a archery club near my place. Found their website, and you can take 8 lessons to see if you like it, before you become a member. Used the contact form to let them know I was interested and two weeks later I still hadn’t heard from them. So, I decided to contact them again. This time four weeks went by and I still received no word :raisedeye: . This time I tried to look for a telephone number, but no luck, so once again I contacted them by the email form. So far no word yet … :sigh:

I did get word about my medieval clothing. Wednesday I got note that the money had arrived, and the clothes would be posted that day. I expected them to arrive at my place around Friday, but to my surprise they came the next day already . Hopefully I can take pictures of them this weekend and post them. Now I want this medieval looking travelbag with it, but I will have to make one my one, because the ones I’ve found are of leather, and I’d rather have a fabric one (cream-coloured). And of course I want it to be totally me, so I’ve been in search of cross stitch patterns of celtic/medieval like, but so far I haven’t found anything to my liking. I still have got about eleven months left, because that’s when I will need it for the Elf Fantasy Fair . Any ideas are welcomed .

I’ve been lacking… November 2, 2008

I know, I know. It’s been a little over a month ago since my last post. I’ve been extremely busy with work and to be honest, I simply forgot to post as well. Which means that nothing that great is going on my life and it has been quite boring LOL.

In the middle of October, I had a week off (that’s been two weeks ago already) and I took my mum to Edinburgh. I loved it there, it’s not a city I would like to live in, but for a holiday it’s quite nice and three days definitely is too short to see more of Scotland. I’d love to go again and then also go to places as Loch Ness etc.

By coincidence I stumbled upon a preview of and episode of the BBC tv-show Merlin. I decided to watch that episode (it’s great to have the BBC on your TV when you’re Dutch), and ever since then I’m hooked. The plot is so not as the myth of Merlin goes, but still it’s great to watch.

And that is it for now. Told you the past month was rather boring…

A month has gone by September 28, 2008

It’s unbelievable, September is almost gone, October will begin. Two more weeks of work and I’ll be having my autumn break. I’ll be going on a very small vacation, to Edinburgh. Looking forward to that, though it means I’ll have to leave my lovely cats in someone else’s capable hands. Yes cats. Last Friday I went to the animal shelter and I found this adorble cat. Approximately one year old. It’s a male, they called him Skunkie, but I’m considering of calling him Borre. Nah, scratch the considering, I’m pretty sure I will call him Borre. I can pick him up this upcoming Tuesday, since they found him and then they have to keep him in for fourteen days, incase someone comes looking for him. He’s black with white, and even a little bit of grey. As soon as the little fellow is home, I try to take a photo of him.

As you might have noticed, there’s another layout, but more importantly, I’m trying once again to have my blog at my own webspace. That way I can do way more with it, have my own made themes, add more plugins etc, etc. Now I’m just hoping people will leave my site alone. I’ve had it with all the hackers and if I hear a person telling me he is one, he’d better run! I’ve uploaded the posts I’ve made at the other blog, so those have not gone lost. I do hope another layout will come up soon. I do like this one, but I made one of which I’m very fond with Artisteer, however witht he free version I get it watermarked . Anyone care to help me with that?
