The 10 best things that I did on holiday...or happy memories.

nobody@vox.com(Shoejunkie) — Wed, 21 Feb 2007 00:19:43 -0800

Of course seeing family again was the bestest thing of the whole trip but other than that and in no particular order....

Sailing out to and around Robbin Island from Cape Town in the yacht with dolphins chasing alongside.
The view of Table Mountain one evening with a crescent moon topped with Venus on one side and the comet sweeping down the sky on the other.
The night of wonderful luxury at The Lord Milner Hotel in Matjiesfontain.....Victorian splendour.
Getting pleasantly drunk at the vinyard at Groot Constantia.
Eating the best seafood it is possible to get (Yellowtail with crayfish) at the Dunes
Walking in the Ocean at Melkbosstrand
Walking out onto the balcony at the Lodge in Natal to see the sunrise with the wildlife moving across the veld.
Market day in the Zulu town of Pomeroy.
Learning to surf at Jeffrey's Bay.
Winning 4,800 Rand at the Casino.

South Africa trip 177

A view to make me home sick.

Back home all in one piece after a long spell which was glorious.

More later when I get my feet on the ground.

Leaving on a Jet Plane

nobody@vox.com(Shoejunkie) — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 05:11:56 -0800

I can't believe that it is almost time to fly down south and follow the swallows! Saturday will see me in Amsterdam and by Monday I'll be on the way to Cape Town!

Busy packing and working out schedules, leaving post it notes all over the place for the man. But I know all will be well.

I will try to add to the blog whilst away but I know I'm going to be so so busy just fucking enjoying myself!

QotD: It's Going To Be Different This Year

nobody@vox.com(Shoejunkie) — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 05:08:10 -0800

What are your resolutions for 2007?

Well here we go again! Although I reckon I did pretty well last year.

I lost weight and my clothes from years back fit me
I have got my piano skills back in enjoyable shape
The returns from my investments and hard work have paid off.

So this year???

Make myself relax more
Keep my man
Keep the house tidy....Mmmm hard one
Take up riding once again.
Try harder to shop locally for food and to recycle more of the household waste.
Go through my wardrobe and make a bundle for the hospice charity shop.
Make it to the hairdressers more often

So this time next year it will be a fitter, smarter girl who is relaxed and happily attached?

Ready for Christmas

nobody@vox.com(Shoejunkie) — Fri, 22 Dec 2006 00:12:19 -0800

Good bits:

The presents are under the tree

The fridge is full

The wine rack is full

The logs are gathered in

I am ready for Christmas

Louise reports that the shops have exceeded budget totals (still 2 days to go)

Bad bits:

Someone stole the wreath from ny front door

It took a hour to get into town on the train (normally 12 minutes)

No loos were working on said train

Civilization is NOT advancing.

Are these beautiful or not? Please Santa!

All folks out there do have a wonderful Christmas!

Don't tell anyone

I had my left nipple pierced yesterday! My man wanted me to have it done and so its his Christmas suprise. He will be back on Thursday. Wasn't as painful as I thought in fact less than my belly button.
