Mandatory Hold Music

We've all been on hold and subject to hold music, maybe the following should be mandatory!

Why Are We Waiting (all lists)
I can't get no satisfaction (too many to list)
Hit me baby one more time (Child Support Agency, help lines, parenting advice)
It's a lovely day today (geez look at the weather outside while I am in here ON HOLD)
Telephone Arguin' Blues
Help, I need somebody
No Reply
Time Goes By

Xmas Lights

Went for a cruise around town tonight to check out the lights. Very nice display. Lots of waving Santa's, moving reindeer and other gizmos. I wonder about the popularity of this activity - great tradition, good for family activities, hopeless for global warming!!

Looks like nature is going to compete anyway with lightning in the skies. Hopefully we are in for some more rain.

Random Ramblings

Well so much for me posting regularly on this, I admit I am VERY slack. All the technology in the world and no time to use it. OR if I do use it I feel guilty for not doing other stuff.

Right now I should be at RFS training but after a horrible nights sleep - too hot, noisy sleepover (the kids not me unfortunatly!) and bug attacks etc I decided to stay home rather than wake the kids and drop them off elsewhere so I can go. My eldest goes with me, the youngest was going to go to her friends who slept over last night. The old adage let sleeping dogs lie was my guide on this one - I am too tired and grumpy to deal with tired and grumpy 11 year olds who can make any 2 year old tantrum look lame.

So failing RFS training I "should" be putting some laundry on, I need clean sheets. 5 minute job, but to get to it I have to empty the machine and fold the clothes in that, then I'll be cleaning the kitchen cos the little darlings left it a mess etc - so here I am procrastinating and blogging instead!!

Found a great article on Bigpond this morning, more aptly known as PigPond. I also need to work on two websites, update the community one and do some typing. I know it is sunday but I am getting way behind at work - too much to do and too little time!!
