its been a long time

since I blogged. thankfully theres no one actually reads these things so no worries there. no pressure. Ive no idea why i came here today - other than i was reading over at Sloe wine - one of my favourite blogs, and remembered I actually had one of my own. So much has happened since i last blogged, i may just take entries from my website and copy paste some of them.....
only i could find a lazy way to blog. my best friend used to say if theres a shortcut to something maggie'll find it - she still phones me looking for quickie solutions to those things we can never be bothered doing....

some quick catch ups -
the gym - down from five times a week to maybe two, three on a good week!
the wedding in Ireland - absolutely fantastic, best wedding Ive ever been too,long to revisit Dublin.
the cat wars - still in full force, not a clue who's winning, but they are both getting less interested since the start of the november rain.

My friend who writes the crazy poetry cack sent me a poem she wrote for her daughters 17th birthday - heres a wee look

My Greatest Success

my greatest success wears a lip ring
proudly - declaring her independance
possibly from me, or maybe just
whatever

she colours her hair black, emulating emos
but blasts life and happy into everything
the dusty sills fear her passing
more than sunshine

the girl with five colours in her heart
has only one door thats closed
one street we can't walk - alone
or together

she knows exactly where lifes going
but she might just miss the bus
having ten more minutes sleep -
pray she'll always have a next one

her special, special pulls my words,
tugs them to my throat
until im choking on the glad
unable to swallow - killed by the static.
