This week...

What a week. Glad tomorrow is Friday. It's been a bit crazy...

I havebeen in for an interview at Bon's school seeking work as a casual. Terrified, excited & hopeful about returning to the work force after a 9 year break!

I am STILL doing battle with the mouse. We are not peanut butter eaters here - but in desperation this afternoon I bought some (thanks for all the tips) & am hoping to hear the SNAP of the trap tonight? It's continued to manage to eat around the food in the trap without setting them off...little bugger!

I skipped through the Oscars this morning. (Crashed on the lounge & full of the flu with a nose like a tap!) Call me sentimental, but I always love the bit when they remember & honour those actors & directors etc who have died since the last year. I feel sad that all that talent has gone now...yet HUNDRED of talented people die every day, talented in ways that people will never know about...

Another one of our Quest friends has died this week...how I hate reading that yet another friend has lost their battle with cancer. Lizzie was such an encouragement to everyone...such courage to fight, & what a fight it's been for her!! When the end comes it always seems way too fast for me. I knew she was fighting, then all of a sudden she's gone...this fallen, broken world just sucks sometimes. There is such wonder here, yet such horror. 

It is heartbreaking...& so I leave this link here... (It's the Julie London version - pictured.)

I'll be seeing you...
