Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 193 -

Full on day rewriting parts of my Author Platform article, and while I was exhausted going on, I went to my writing group anyway, ate a vegetable panini, got some TV episodes, saw my gorgeous writer friends and then went home to SLEEP.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 179 - Cats and Dogs ... no, not raining

Again another ordinary day with no defining characteristics so I give you ... cats and dogs. Together.

You're welcome.

AGAIN.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 178 - Cats in fridges!

I don't think anything of note happened today so I give you ... CATS IN FRIDGES! (thanks to the fabulous folks at Buzzfeed!)

You're welcome.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 151 - So insanely tired

Tonight was spiders group night but thought I lugged my laptop to work to thence take it to my writing group, I was far too tired and headed home, grabbed some Indian food for Aidan and I, and bunkered down for 3 episodes of New Girl before crashing very early and getting 9 hours sleep.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 120 - Chilling

Apart from a walk by myself to Dulwich Hill IGA to get croissants for breakfast (plus all the toiletries I forgot to get yesterday at Newtown IGA)...where is my brain sometimes?!... my gorgeous guy and I stayed in all day.

He worked on his project for Environment while I caught about two weeks worth of this blog, sent some questions off to a Swedish artist, Jonas Oakland for the interview I am conducting with him for SparklyPrettyBriiiight.com, and had a mini nap. We even stayed in for dinner and had leftovers.

It was the perfect combination of doing stuff but still relaxing and so naturally it deserves cats that are chilling... of course it does...

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 74 - Mooses and cats oh my!

Nothing remarkable happened today so here are fun LOLZ pics from the web that combine my love of mooses and cats. Perfect.

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 52 - Let's get phsyio! Physio! I wanna get phsyio...

Off to the physio (or if you're the autocorrect function of my computer, the 'psychic' - the US-based software can't cope with the Aussie love of abbreviating everything) again tonight.

The new guy I am seeing - new as in not the people I was seeing in Bondi Junction who were great but too far away - at Erko Physio has taken a back that 4 weeks ago was so wracked with pain that it took me 45 minutes to get off the bed to go to the physio. It was awful and he's brought me back from the brink.

I love having my back working properly again. Now to get back into the full swing of things again (which I am hoping will include swimming again which I miss!)

The fabulous Brett who saved my back

Naturally, of course, this post calls for cat pictures from the web! (OK it actually doesn't, but when has that ever stopped me before?)

Swimming Pretty in the Glass-Half-Full 2012: Day 33 - Fistful of zzzzz's

Learning to sleep on my side, after 40 plus years of sleeping on my stomach is proving a challenge. I am waking up multiple times a night and only really deeply sleeping for the first 3 hours or so when I am so tired that my need to sleep outweighs any discomfort I feel.


It's like being on a never ending international flight where I cannot get comfortable and hence, cannot sleep. I am sure I will adjust in time - I have to since the continued health of my back depends on it - but right now the impaired sleep is playing havoc with my ability to concentrate at work, focus on what needs doing generally in my life, and relax.


I can only pray my body eventually adjusts and all is sweet.


I will take any opportunity to use cat pictures to illustrate a blog and today is no exception....
