I read yesterday that Johnny Depp once said that with toddlers you're always on suicide and homicide watch - if they're not doing something that will kill themselves, they're doing something that will kill someone else.
Never a truer word spoken.

Unrelated statements all in one post without bulletpoints because I can't work out how to make them. Help me someone.
I can't even begin to describe how blissful it is to be able to blog from my bed.
Managing a shop is harder than it looks. I thought I'd prance about and play with pretty things. In 4 weeks, there has been very little prancing.
A woman came into the shop today to complain about how expensive everything was. Well, that's the only reason I can think of for her being there because she didn't buy anything. But then something really strange happened. She returned later to take one of our business cards to use as a birthday card for her one year old granddaughter. Wow.
Facebook is both a blessing and a curse for me. It's a blessing because I get to stay in regular contact with friends I love with all my heart. It's a curse because I still feel anxious, even 100 years after the fact, about what some people I went to high school with think of me. Or should that be thought of me then? Or maybe what they both thought of me then and think of me now? Hrrmm, how about I try relaxing and not caring about any of it.
I've spent most of my evening in front of a roaring fire. It's November. AND I'M IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE.
Yay Obama. You got my vote in spirit. That reminds me - I must remember to vote in our national election tomorrow. You too. Unless you're not allowed to. But otherwise you should vote.

Come one, come all
The delightful Louise over at Twenty Cent Mixture is organising a New Zealand-wide Christmas ornament swap. There are some very cool crafters taking part and I'll be in there too.
Come and join in the fun. Sign-up ends tomorrow so hurry, hurry, hurry!

It's like magic
We have WIRELESS broadband. I'm in heaven.
And did I mention that we have MySky now too?
Ahhh, life is good in the country.

Must. Post. Must. Post.
Right, let's have a report-back on my efforts to post every day in October.
Days in October = 31.
Posts on Frou Frou = 29.
According to my maths, that's a win.

Singing from the same hymn book
My darling Jules sent me off for a manicure today. All his idea and he paid. Just saying.
