Thoughts, Thoughts, Thoughts

Looks like I may be going away after all, on a tide of requests...
The Araldite is drying on the broken chair leg and the broken lamp.
I can't have boxes to pack until I know the moving date.

I wish I was stronger physically.
I wish cats could go out and buy their own cat food.
I wish cars mended themselves free of charge.
I wis More4 would stop repeating Friends, the sole diet of Offsprog 2.
I wish there wasn't half a tomato putrefying on the side in the kitchen.
I wish the old washing machine would throw itself away.
I wish the Estate Agent wasn't such a bully.

I hope it stays nice Autumn for another couple of weeks so I can enjoy the sharp sunshine.
I hope my tiny new house is as sweet and warm as it looks.
I hope I can afford a washing machine and a fridge after everyone has taken their fees.
I hope my ex-partner finds happiness.
I hope I have nice visitors and a social life when I've moved.
I hope I don't lose my job!
I hope I get to see my best friend a bit more.
I hope this move is as good for everyone as I think it will be.

I have learned a ton of new stuff this year which I never thought I had the capacity to learn.
That's got to be good, hasn't it?

By the way, if you are a friend who I normally have emailed quite a lot in the past, sorry about my silence for the last couple of months. It has been difficult to do anything apart from blog. I promise to be different from now on!

It's bound to turn out ok - your positive attitude to adversity shines through your posts - and you obviously have a quirky sense of humour, which is a great helpoh bother, blooger won't let me comment as frayed .... so I'll show up as ADonald466 - confusing!!
