A busy tuesday

As soon as I got to work today, Ted asked me to come to the print shop to do a bit of art work on a business card they were working on. It got it done ok, it took about 3/4 of an hour.

We had a farewell lunch for Ruth at 12.30. It was really nice and sad to see her go, but i am sure we will be able to move on.

I had planned to go to a bible study with Simon Moten tonight but he was unavailable.

A "connected" friday

This has turned out to be a more interesting day than I thought it would be. I was late getting to BUCO as I slept in, but still managed to get my work done on time. In the evening I went to a men's night at Connect church where we just ate a few pies, drank some ginger beer, played pool and generally just hung out as men do. Pastor Russell told me that the mutimedia department needed a lot more help, so I think i will volunteer my services.

When I got home an read my email messages I discovered that my brother in law, Graham Lang is seriously ill in hospital. Apparently he has some serious heart damage and it does not look good. I will remember him in my prayers.

Another hospital visit

Last thursday, the 18th of June, i made another visit to the Bendigo Hospital. I had to get a kidney scan done. I went to the hospital with a full bladder, which was necessary to do the scan. It was painless enough. I will see the results in a week or so.

A Eurovision wednesday

I spent most of the day watching a DVD about the 2004 Eurovision Song contest that was held in Istanbul. The show was ok but I did not agree with the winner. I was a bit late buying the wine. We had the Shiraz group at Kevin Furness's house in Strathfieldsaye. Only six were there but it was a good night.

An odd Monday

I reported to the courts this morning for jury duty, only to be told that I was not needed. That was fine by me. In the afternoon, I bought a new electric blanket as the nights recently have been very cold and I have not slept well.

A wet cold saturday

It is really wet here and really cold a swell. That is ok, it is winter but it is fantastic to see the rain back. I hope it rains all winter long. After studying Chapter 3 of my Adobe Illustrator book, I went to the Coffee Connect group at the Subtle Eye cafe. There were only a few people there, including Jenny Sawyer and Rosalie who used to go to the Vineyard. It was a fun hour or so.

State of Origin wednesday

It has been raining steadily for 3 days here, which is good. I bought some wine today and in the evening we watched the State of Origin match. Queensland won, boo, but a least it was a good match. I must admit that I am feeling a bit quesy. I might have a dose of the flu.

A good day at last.

I finally had a good day after a week of frustration. My internet had stopped working for a week or so. However, my good friend Gary Davis h...
