I’m still not over my cough. I’m exhausted. It keeps me awake at night and I’m barely getting a couple of hours of sleep each night. I’m so over it. My ribs are sore from coughing and it’s so hard to concentrate. I spent a few days in bed last week, the air conditioning...

I’ve spent the last three nights awake coughing. It’s been horrible. As soon as it cools down in the evening, I start to cough and lying down makes it worse. Then, once I start coughing, nothing seems to help until morning. I am so tired. Look at this template. I made it last week...

It’s still busy at work here so things like blog entries take second place. I am so tired at night that I fall asleep at the keyboard while catching up reading email and blogs. The weather is also warming up and it’s been very humid. We had the air conditioning on for the first...

Not much to say. I’ve been so busy, there is little time for anything other than posting my latest layouts. This is me and my brother on our balcony posing for mum. I must have been about 5 years old and my brother about three. My brother, it can’t be seen in the photo...

We are heading into spring in Australia and we have started with the spring cleaning. All our windows and the outside of our house were washed last week. The house literally sparkles. The greenish tinge where the sun doesn’t reach is gone and the glass of the windows let in so much more light....
