That Happy Feeling

BEAST 19

OK, so the blogging every day has struck the occasional hurdle, so we've changed it to blogging almost every day in September, Terrific.   

Had Monday 17/9 off, because I worked the overnight shifts on Saturday and Sunday.   Worked yesterday 6:00am-1.30pm, and then had a Choir committee meeting last night. 

Working afternoons for the rest of the week (2:00pm-9:30pm so just clearing a few things away this morning.   

Life is fine, the weather is good, spring is really here.   The conjunctivitis comes and goes, but now that I have drops to manage it that's OK.   

Time to catch up on Facebook and You Tube vloggers. 

BLOGGING EVERYDAY, ALMOST in SEPTEMBER, TERRIFIC.

Slept for about 6 hours, 08:00am-2:00pm, because I worked last night, and am working night shift again tonight. 

A quiet afternoon.   Not much going on.  Beautiful spring Sunday weather, nice and sunny.

Today, September 15, we had a gig at Campbelltown, at the Sacred Music Festival.   Not the Religious Music Festival.   

It was a good gig, and a great venue.   

Worked Saturday night, 10:00pm-6:00am on Sunday, and that was fairly uneventful, which is just as well.

Off work today because I'm working Saturday and Sunday nights.   

Pottered around for the most part, with an eye exam this afternoon.   No new prescription needed for new glasses, so that'll save some money. 

We have a choir gig tomorrow, which I'm looking forward to, in Campbelltown, in Sydney's southern suburbs, about an hour and a half away from home.  Then back here for a couple of hours reset before work. 

Have a great weekend all. 

BLOGGING EVERY DAY IN SEPTEMBER.

Choir rehearsal tonight was great.   We did a final run through for a performance at a Sacred Music Festival in Campbelltown this Saturday afternoon.  Lots of Tchaikovsky, some John Peterson, and other inspiring stuff. 

We even got to sing a little Whitney, although she's not in Saturday's repertoire.   

No work tomorrow, so I can sleep in.   I've got an optometrist appointment at 4:00pm in the afternoon, so I have to dose up on eyedrops during the day to try to get rid of the last of this pesky conjunctivitis that's been bugging my right eye all week. 

Time for bed.

12/9.   Nothing spectacular today.   Work was its usual mix of chaos and quiet, steady, not frantic, which is usually the way. 

After work, since about 3pm I've being doing admin type stuff at home of one sort or another.   Finished the "duty" part of the day, and now relaxing with You Tube, Facebook and Google Reader.   

Will I be up at 2.45am tomorrow morning for the Apple Keynote?   Not bloody likely, because its Choir rehearsal tomorrow evening which makes for a long day, but I have Friday off, so I'll catch up with all the news on Friday. 

The plan is to squirrel away money so I can buy a new iPhone end of September, early October.  I figure its cheaper to buy, and then use a cheap monthly plan, rather than buy the phone and the plan from the provider over a 2 year period.   I'm working Saturday night and Sunday night,  and have a choir performance on Saturday, so I might try to get into the Apple store on Sunday afternoon, but I'm sure it will be hectic.  I won't join the queue or anything, maybe just get to play with one for a while, and salivate.   My 3G is so slow at the moment.

Half the week is gone (sort of).  Working tomorrow, and then Thursday, and off Friday, but working overnight Sat/Sun and Sun/Monday, then off Monday and back Tuesday.  The joys of being a rotational shift worker.   

Another fine day today.   Not much going on.  Tuesday night is pizza night, so I've just had pizza and a couple of reislings.  Very nice. 

Might have an early night, read for a while and then crash until 04:00am tomorrow and start all over again.

BEDS10,

Okay so its 10.27PM, on Monday 10/9 in Honolulu, so the Blog Every Day in September trip continues.   Monday was quiet (in Sydney).  Back to work after a great weekend, but a short week for me, as I've got next Friday off.

Spring weather continues, fine and warm during the day, a little cool, but not too bad early, just before sunrise.

Bought myself a new GPS unit today,  (10/9).   Its a TomTom 6" screen, which is bigger than the old 5" I had, but it seems to be a better fit in the car.   Not intrusive, and I can easily take it off the windscreen or dash each time I finish using it.

Sunday, fine, warm and sunny.   Pottered around this morning, not doing much, and then this afternoon drove into the city for some window shopping, followed by a couple of beers. 

A short week this week, working Mon-Thu, then night shifts Sat and Sunday, and off again next Monday.   

Nothing much going on locally, statewide or nationally.

Some days are indeed diamonds, and today was certainly one of them.   Early spring, but there was still a bit of wind around, not too hot, not too cold.   Voted in the council elections this morning.   Voting is compulsory in all 3 tiers of voting in Australia (council, state and federal elections.   Pottered around for a while and then into town for some shopping, and later a couple of drinks, before a fairly early night. 

Tomorrow will probably be similar.   The conjunctivitis isn't really as irritating as it was earlier in the week, possibly thanks to the drops I picked up on Friday.   I think the cause is a big white shrub at the front of the house.   Its in full bloom, so if I had my way, it'd be "out secateurs" but I'll leave it for the time being.   

All in all it looks like a fairly quiet weekend, which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
