Na Blo Po Mo. Again. Again.

It's that NaBloPoMo time of year again - my heart isn't in it this year so don't be surprised if I vanish midway through.....
Eloquence feels like it's ebbing away. Along with my brain.
Apparently I managed to go to Northampton without my Arimidex last weekend - but didn't notice that I hadn't been taking them for three days....in fact, I thought I *had* taken them at least once and then misplaced the pills but when I got back to London they were here; so I obviously hadn't. On the plus side I had a few days of hardly any hot flushes; on the minus side my axilla and shoulder started to ache again which I think is due to some swelling because of a few nodes in there. I'm sure it'll settle down again now I've started taking them again. I just hope the aching back settles down too - it's been nearly two weeks and it's not as bad as it was but it's not 100% either. Gee, I love being a crock! It's such great fun! (NOT)
Tomorrow, tune in to see if I've blown my up with methylated spirits and a trangia.....

The end, done, finito etc

Welcome to the end of NaBloPoMo. I made it, you made it reading along. Done and dusted.
Now I can think about Christmas - nearly - tomorrow I can.
Last year I thought that having done a month I'd be much better at posting regularly - it didn't really work out that way. I admit I was somewhat distracted by the whole 'going to Peru' thing; so maybe this year it *will* make a difference.
Watch this space!!

I promised lots of Peru photos at the start and didn't follow through - so maybe we'll finish up with a few more to make up for it.

Welcome greeness, pink go away

Oh thank heavens, October is over and I can go back to the more soothing green. Although it's looking a little more pea-colored than I would like - I'm sure it wasn't that color to start with....

I really do wish I knew how to do the fancy blog designing I see going on. I'd like a pretty banner rather than my rather plain, austere, blank heading......any good recommendations for sites that tell absolute dunces how to start this sort of thing??

My plans for NaBloPoMo are a little more ambitious this year. I think I'm going to have a theme for each day of the week (if I can come up with enough) and I'd like to pose you a daily question. It might just be for recommendations or it might be a bit more like homework......beware!!! :)

Watch this space!

Bearing in mind that I thought today was the last day of October and not the first of November; don't expect too much!!!!
