Ohhhhhh....computers, email, internet, frustration. Who would have thought ten years ago that I would be so caught up and dependent on this technology. When I can't send or even get into my email there's a cry of frustration, impatience and annoyance.My school is currently changing over their email from Novell WebAccess to Outlook Express....so now I need to yet again (after moving from Griffith email which is still actually functional) feed in all of my addresses and navigate another new emailing system. So after spending Sunday doing some serious emailing of important stuff (like my research) they all bounced back to me.....and it was not a simple deed to just then forward them on attachments and all. I was wondering why no-one was replying to me. So this serious dribble means nothing to anyone....except I did eat my first MANGO of the season just then.....well I was tempted to eat it ALL, but my conscience won and I cut up half for Kevin.....who is currently cutting downpipes and fitting the rainwater tank in eager anticipation of some rain!!!!! Yes there are clouds in the sky but that has meant little in the past days, weeks and even months like the rest of Australia. We might resort to putting the hose into the tank and then pretending we have rainwater!!!!!!So the countdown to Sydney is happening......3 more sleeps and quite some organising yet to go which makes one wonder why I am wasting time here....have a meeting at 7pm tonight re school matters, then getting the nails done tomorrow after work, then Thursday off to Brisbane for a PD day, then we're there. I hear Joshua is excited about seeing us in Sydney (thanks Ellie)....we're excited that we will share in what will probably be not too common an occurrence in that all of our children will be together at once....something to savour yes! So tra-la for now....life IS good!
