Just a week

It's been a week of stuff, just stuff - cancelled meetings on the other side of the city, strange shifts for J, everyone a bit run-down from the latest lurgi Noddie has brought home...just stuff.
But then again
J lost his WORK KEYS on Sunday (security and alarm keys for a huge hardware store) and although I was pretty dark that the rare free afternoon earmarked for knitting and movie-watching was spent looking under fridges and shaking out couch cushions, I FOUND THEM!!! WOOT! - FYI if you put a pile of folded washing on top of keys, it is possible that the key tag can hook into a sock so what when you lift up the washing the keys appear not to be there and you don't find them until you give up looking and say f#$% it, I might as well put the washing away.
We had to get a photo of Sally-the-pup printed for Noddie to take to kinder and I LOST THE CAMERA MEMORY CARD. Ackkk! Words cannot express the confusion of feelings - oh no! why am I so stupid? It's not fair! I found J's lost stuff and now mine is gone for good! Then at 3 o'clock next morning I woke up and thought I wore black boots and a pink coat to church - why did I look in my red handbag? I bet it's in my black handbag! And it was! Huzzah!
And yesterday I had the slowest most crap ride ever but the full moon was so bright and the sunrise was so pretty it almost made up for it, and this morning Sally hadn't left any messes for me to clean up.
I'm graduating on Friday. I wasn't going to, but I think it's important to punctuate life milestones, and to show Noddie what this Mummy-going-to-uni bizzo is about. Any excuse to robe up and then go out to dinner, really!

Ah, how the mind works while you are asleep. When ever I can't remember something like a name, I simply tell everyone to wait 10minutes and then, hey presto, it jumps into my head like it was playing a game of peek-a-boo.
