Buses suck, Trains are better

I think the title summed it up nicely!

Football/Soccer Fever

Monday morning was a strange site, the motorway to work was eerily quiet and free flowing, not a traffic cop anywhere. Walked into work and it was so still and quiet, I did a double take and wondered if I somehow mixed up Sunday with Monday. Alas no, it was World Cup Finals! Hardly anyone came to work until 9.30am after Spain's win. A carrot knows more about football (soccer) than me but I did baske (slighly) in the glory of the All Whites :-) Who would have ever guessed that a small nation like ours would ever stand amongst giants of the football world. Go the mighty All Whites - still unbeaten!

Mind like a Goldfish

Ops. I totally forgot. Yes, completely forgot I had a blog to update until one minute ago when reminded by a special reader (yay! I have readers! - or possibly just one reader. Oh well.)

Now what's happened in last 3 weeks? Well mostly a lot of moving, mum, flatmate and I had to help all and do a lot of cleaning etc. I can't believe there's so much STUFF! We've all got WAAAAYYYYY too much "stuff" in general. Everytime I move, I swear I didn't buy half the stuff but somehow it's ended up with me. We need to get back to real basics and just rent (or live without). Stuff doesn't equal happiness/success. I'm sure you'll agree when you start moving!

I signed a permanent contract with the company last week, and had to ask my manager to announce the fact that I'm now permanent (so sad to have to ask!). Now work is going well. Can't say it is the most creative job ever but I'm injecting it with my sense of flair, creativity and style (that's what I tell myself everyday). Unfortunately am on a floor with no kitchen and with all ladies (except for 3) so have joined the social club to meet others starting this week.

House looking a bit cleaner from the tidying and cleaning effort, though it's never quite enough!
Haven't done anything on the business so must get on with it. No updates there.

Discovered that I am getting more and more forgetful nowadays. If I don't write things down, I'll repeat myself or forget completely.....Does anyone know a cure for this? Thanks in advance.
