Its late, I can't sleep ...

I don't know about you guys and how you would be feeling, but after living and working with my husband for 7 weeks solid, it seems very strange not to have him around.

Nothing would normally disrupt my healthy sleep pattern, but clearly tonights an exception. It's daylight outside (or Simmer Dim as they call it) and I can't sleep ...


Even the hot water bottle's not helping :-(

The recently borrowed book from the community library is  starting to get a bit gorey, so I've put that down.



So, I've got to thinking ... mainly about how many times - over the last couple of years - my memory has deserted me - in fact not just deserted me, but squarely mislead me into thinking something happened when it actually didn't. I fear for my old age. I fear for poor old Steve getting the blame every time I can't find something.... there's only so many times you can carry the can for your wifes absent-mindedness :=(

At 47, this is how I feel (Sarah in Hebrew means "princess"? so the tiara is very appropriate!)




But you know me ... well,  most of you do ... and I'm never low for long - even at 12:50am . Tomorrow I'll be doing my bit to raise funds for the local public hall in Burravoe (these halls really are the heart of the community) ... what will I be doing?



Yes , chopping and prepping food for a Pizza Night, organised by our local stonemason who - I have to say - is a very gifted amateur cook, and I'm one of the helpers. Shame none of you are up here to taste the output of our hardwork as I can vouch for his abilities in making very nice Italian food.  I'll let you know tomorrow how it went, hopefully quite a few should come along to eat - or maybe takeaway a pizza. I know one customer who will be waiting there with his knife and fork. Yes, Mr Cheshire.



Uh oh .... its now 01:00 and I'm talking about food.... time to try and sleep again I think.

Nite x
