Ooh I hate that – 2 bad
things have happened and we all know everything comes in 3’s.
First I took some crystals
down for cleansing which I have to do in batches because I have LOADS of
crystals, and I mean loads – thousands if you count the small ones as well. I can’t seem to stop myself from buying new
ones whenever I see ones that I like and that is OFTEN! It is not that they are necessarily that
expensive as the cheaper ones cost anything from £1 upwards (well I have been
known to find ones I like for 30p each) although I know some go up to a couple
of hundred pounds for the bigger ones like the caverns, but if I see something
I like at a reasonable price I just have to have it – well a girl has to buy it
there and then because there is only the one of it as they are all unique in
colour, size, pattern etc. So now I am just
not allowing myself to look for a while.
There aren’t any local shops that sell them anyway but I did used to
regularly go into one in my old home town when I go to the dentist - yes I
still go back to the same dentist, which was perfectly ok when my mum was still
alive and lived in my home town but is sillier now to drive there when there
are so many local dentists – but you tend to get used to the one and as you
hopefully only go twice a year it doesn’t matter too much. There is a lovely little shop there that just
sells crystals (well a few other things like incense) and it was just round the
corner from my dentist so I just couldn’t help but pop in there every time I
went to the dentist which did make every dental appointment very expensive
indeed. But the shop and the dentist
have now moved and are at opposite ends of the town which means I would have to
make a special effort to go to the crystal shop and I have so far been very
good and not detoured up there to it.
The other place I tend to buy them is online especially on some good
ebay sites, so now I daren’t even look at my saved searches of those sites
because if I see crystals I like I know I will be too tempted, so what I don’t
see I can’t buy which keeps temptation at bay.
Anyway, my poor delicate crystal broke into 3 and so I have rehoused it
into a mixed pot of crystals rather than a showpiece spot on my table.

The 2nd thing that
happened is that I had written out some notes and ideas for some blogs but
obviously hadn’t got round to saving them – I know, the cardinal rule is to
save everything often but I must have got distracted as I was doing it and then
when I came back to the computer last night everything had closed down as we
had had one of those (weekly it seems) really annoying Windows Updates that
restarts the computer afterwards if you are not there to keep clicking the
Restart Later button. That is annoying
in itself as once it has kicked in you have to keep clicking the blooming
button every 10 minutes and you daren’t even go for a pee in case it shuts
everything down while you aren’t there.
I have so many things open that the last thing I want to do is close
everything, let it restart and then open everything again. Who invented that way of updating the
wretched thing anyway I want to know!!!
Why on earth can’t they make it so that it updates the next time you
start the computer or gives you the option to restart if you want to if you are
the type of person who never closes your computer down. Why just cut everything off – I can’t be the
only one that it peeves off when it does that surely? I put the occasional note down when I think
of it to remind me as my brain is like a sieve these days so I doubt I will
remember much, if anything, of the notes I wrote down yesterday and I actually
had a good day for some ideas as they were flowing on from each other!!! Anyway all my notes were gone, but as you can
see I had no problem thinking of something to write about today !!! Grrr!!!
**********
I just hope there isn’t a 3rd
thing. I did have a really bad sick
headache today so I will have to hope that that was the 3rd thing.

Here’s todays little snippet
of information for you (answer after the picture so you can’t see the answer
first, so scroll slowly):
Q. If you were to spell out numbers (one, two etc), how far
would you have to go until you would find the letter “A” in the number.
A. One thousand
