Winter is coming

So it's now the 12th October and the weather has definitely changed for the worse, not that it's a bad thing.  Summer looks like it's finally over so instead of heat there's the cold.

With the cold comes some luxury surprises, like warm woolly jumpers, thick coats and warm boots with thick socks; coming in after a cold day and having warm tea or hot chocolate ... Ummmm.

My personal favourite is being wrapped up warm with a good book while the rain and wind howling outside, although I also enjoy walking with my big, warm boots on, while the wind whips through my hair, it's nice.

Thinking about Christmas and it's cold enough that it may snow this year and I love watching a blizzard through the window, being happy I am indoors, although that feeling may change if I actually have to go outside!

Sometimes when it snows at night I look out the window and watch the snow settle, it's a perfect white blanket covering everything ... So smooth and soft, with nothing to disturb it ... Then the following morning it's covered with animal tracks, like a path tracing their route during the day. When I walk through the snow if I see a clear patch I will make a footprint or walk across it so my route is shown.

Its October Already

Wow I cannot believe that it’s the 1st day of October
What has happened to this year???

Its quite warm for this time of the year and I could almost think its July
As its October, for me, this is the birthday month
I am the 2nd, my sister is 14th and my mother is 27th
Its nice to give presents and see them having a good time

Personally I am not sure how I feel about birthdays anymore
When you are a child its all about the attention
As an adult, its all about the age

Weird as you seem to change less as you grow older
Same responsibilities, same job

Still time keeps ticking, so until next time
;0)

Paperless Office!!!

I love technology
I love it when new products are released
The fun of finding out how they work and what they do
I use all types of technology and all types of media

The problem comes when technology stops
I am sure that we all have bad days when the computer stops working or the network is down
So frustrating

Apparently I work in a paperless office
Except for all the paper that I use to make notes
Its quite efficient as all the records needed are to hand
I just have to log into 6 different systems first

The problems start when my system is down, its like banging you head against a wall
No work can be down, I just sit there waiting, waiting and waiting

So my system went down yesterday and I logged a call with IT
My system was still down today, apparently the fact that I cannot do any work
Is not classed as a high priority!!!
Luckily after ringing 5 times someone remotely fixed it about 5pm
So at least I could get some work done
Well, until next time...

1st Post - Ummm

So here I sit with a blank screen in front of me trying to decide what to write my 1st post about, to make it readable and interesting ;0)

I have a few subjects in mind buy am not sure where to start:-
* about me, my OCD, depression and fears
* my hopes, ideas and dreams
* opinions on the news
* ideas about technology
* thoughts on books, films, TV and documentaries
* opinions about general topics
* how about a poem about not knowing

I have written some ideas down, yes using and old-fashioned paper and pen.
I am not sure where to start

Perhaps that's the point, that it should be completely random
Maybe I will put the topics in a hat and just pick 1 out

If you have any suggestions about what I should write about, please write them below
Thanks for reading
