Organized writing

This is how I usually go about writing this blog.

I have little bits of paper and more often backs of envelopes where I just jot down things that I want to remember. It can be just a word or a saying, so it's usually quite short. The problem is when I find these little gems weeks or months after the event , I have a heck of a hard time trying to remember what it was all about. Sometimes I just have to let it go. Like with the back of receipt that said "enema"?  I couldn't for the life of me figure out what that was all about so can't write about that here. Not that enemas would be something you would like to write about here anyway. But if I remember and it is interesting I'll get back to that.

But here we go with another one of them that I just found and which has been in my bag for more than a year. The back of the envelope said "drop dead".  So going into reverse-thinking mode I realized that it was an ad for pest extermination. This was a period when I was particularly grossed out over cockroaches and felt that they were everywhere. I even took a photo of the company's logo and here it is. Yes, like me you will want to rush out and buy toothbrush containers immediately, right?


It's been a quite an un-eventful week otherwise with only a little last-minute shopping for going next week. Hubby just found out that he can have two bags so of course we now have to fill them up too. The air traffic in Sydney has been a bit disturbed lately because of early-morning fog but our flight is in the afternoon so we should be ok.

When I was looking a my photos the other day I realized that I hadn't put the latest "big thing" out here on my blog so here it is, the big kookaburra. We saw it in Kurri Kurri on our way to the Steamfest in Hunter Valley. More about that another time.
