Fun and Games

Time to have a bit of fun with my blog again. I've been working hard and getting through the modules. Today I am here on a Thursday because we're going away to Lake Clearwater for Queen's Birthday tonight. Four nights without power and no cellphone coverage. Sounds great. No internet either or any opportunity to use a computer.

I'm in a Matisse mood. Look at the colours! Aren't they superb? His rich reds and juxtaposition of warm and cool passages are divine. Love the chair too. It is a celebration of colour. All about sensual colour and the joy of living.

It seems I can't add more than one image to my blog:( I found three I loved but this one will suffice. Have sussed it now. You can add as many images as you like!

My blog was looking so staid and formal with all that writing. I've hit a bit of an impass. I didn't bring a pen drive with images on for the images module or a cd. My pass-it-on segment will require me to find someone to teach. Dare I try to teach Lyn and Rod to use Skype? Would it even be possible? It would certainly be a challenge and they would get a lot out of Skyping Josh and Lucy and the folk down in Oamaru. Maybe I could try it? Will contemplate things and see how it goes.


Will set up my Skype address and have a quick look at Images - see if there is something I can get on with.

The grandparents are as excited as the children about going away for
a few days. In fact, I think they're even worse because they don't have
to go to school, etc. They of course are all packed and rearing to go
whereas Jeremy and I are still at work and the house is in a shambles.
I haven't even got to the grocery shops yet. I need to buy bacon and
eggs, moisturiser, coffee and apples. I shall leave here on the dot of 2pm
and get the show on the road.

At this stage I'm looking forward to sitting down with a good book and going to sleep for a couple of days!
