Two Random Girls: Resolution

Oh, you've got to be kidding!

"I have decided" articulated my friend Jane as she eyed the menu board up ahead.
"That, exercise is so overrated, and so are new years resolutions; I mean, come on, who do you know has successfully carried one out for more than 2 weeks after New Years day?".

It did leave me thinking, I mean, I haven't ever succeeded in making one go for more than the usual new years resolution duration. Jane made me think for a moment, and usually, I speak before I think, this short comment struck a thought idea through my head, making me ponder the idea of what always seemed so good on the 31st of December and faded by the time you woke up at noon on the 2nd of January .

"I mean, why do so many carry these little dreams or goals out on that particular date, they are practically doomed to fail; I know that's harsh!" Jane paused and leaned took a step forward as our slow line for a quick coffee shuffled on.

I laughed in a practically unusual way that made me look like I was out of a Hollywood movie.
"You have something there though!" I cheerily and inquisitively remarked. "Why can't we just start it this moment, instead of waiting all that time to start something that just about always fails!"

"Yes!" Jane voiced. "Why do they, or we, put our dreams and goals on something so trivial, or brand it as something that everyone else has or does?"

Jane grabbed my arm and pulled my forward as I stopped to pose a thought about why we do, how we do and how it all came about. The lady over the counter greeted us bluntly and we both cheerily answered with our different choices of coffee and chocolate; the poor young girl wasn't haveing a good day, as our ridiculously sarcastic and silly comments couldn't even cheer her young face into a small smile.

"Do you..." I paused and glanced at her name tag "... Anne, have a new years resolution?" I posed the question slightly to my surprise and very much to Jane and Anne's.
"Don't answer if I seem to prying, please!" I smiled at her as I handed her the small bill.
She paused for a moment thinking it was a joke before answering: "Emm, thank you, well, not really, I don't do them, if I want to start something then I do it when I like" she said, glancing up at Jane and I for a second before handing us our change.
"How delightful to have you say that!" I almost squealed.
Jane smiled at Anne and then shook her head. "We had just been discussing how new years resolutions are practically a joke and ready to fail as soon as the thought arrives!"
"I know right!" Anne smiled and Jane winked at me, we had succeeded.
"Thank you Anne! We'll enjoy our coffee a lot better now!" Jane giggled back over her shoulder as we walked ourselves to a small table for two over at the very front of the shop, a good view of the passers by and always making for a great topic of lady like and interesting chit-chat.

Posting on the go

I, in all my being, intelligence, wisdom and physical strength....  not; Have recovered the convenience of having a smart phone so as to be able to surf the web, shop, post photos, and write on my blog while I'm constantly in a difference place of location during the day.
As the phones got smaller, and the ideas got bigger, and we decided that after the Iphone 5, that we could have something that is a little bigger, not quite a phone size, but rather like holding a book up to your ear if you tried, yet perfect size to sit up 'till ridiculous hours of the night watching YouTube, reading our favourites blogs, updating our twitter status or Facebook profile picture.
I put a lot of faith into technology, that it will keep my work files safe and not delete them, keep my photos where I can find them and now with my new digital sewing machine, that it won't say straight stitch and then give me button hole.

I think, as I sit here at 10:30pm, thanks to technology and some person out there with an idea and their contacts, has brought me my little phone that I couldn't be without- all for good reasons ant of you older generation dissing internet and it's little phones and Facebook.

Wednesday


Wednesday Blender
Ooh, it’s wed-nes-day! 
Does anyone else say words as they sound as well?
Like ‘Free-day’ for Friday, ‘Feb-roo-rary’ for February, ‘D-hi-lemma’ for Dilema and such?
Perhaps it was just instilled into me from my parents as they taught me to read;
“Say c-a-t”,  I can still hear my mother saying it to me as she read out of an old learn to read book.

As I was saying, Wednesday, yes, that’s what it is today, and it was when I woke up, and it was all day, and it even was when I sat down to do some sewing that was pretty much way overdue, and if the sewing was a cake it would have been thrown out long ago!
But honestly, my little second cousins, and their mother, my first cousin, left today, yes, they left, like on the plane back to Sydney and then from their they had a rather long drive back out to the middle of NSW to a heat wave and fires! I can’t imagine driving that late at night it would almost certainly knock my head off my shoulders and my eyes rolling into the next planet!
My parents took them down and visited my mothers uncle while they were there, I do hope the late long drive from there to here doesn’t have anything bad in store.
I am not stressing about my job, not at all, well, haha, to say the least I am trying not to think about it but my family seem to have taken a liking to thinking that I need to be thinking chemistry and metals and rocks 24/7…. no thanks, I will study, but not too much as I know my limits and as to how much may just make me into stress ball of string!
I think that’s all for Wednesday journal… was this meant to be a journal? Not really, but if you wish you read this far you may already know that I don’t do promises well or schedules… 

Oh dear me, that is quite tragic, I feel like dancing till my feet fall off and it's 10pm, yet at this moment, I feel like if I don't close my eyes now that they WILL just die in a heap and I may not find them tomorrow!
OOOh, I went vinnies shopping.... that was so much fun, I got some really cute stuff, I'll have to post photos, but they take so much time to do.. ugh, oh well, if I get time much on here, then I will do my best to post!

NIIIIGHT!
