Welcome to the void

As it happens very little has been happening in my life of late. Follows the theme of this site very nicely don’t you think?! There have been moments but on the whole time is just passing until …. I don’t know. Maybe I just need a holiday.

So far I’ve bought a great TV & discovered (much to my consternation) that due to how TVNZ broadcasts & how my apartment building is set up I still can’t get proper 16:9 widescreen. Just crappy stretched 4:3. DVDs look FANTASTIC though!! Sometimes you’re the pidgeon & sometimes you’re the statue.

I also bought an Edmond’s cookbook & so far I’ve made a banana cake & have plans for pumpkin soup in the very near future. Shepards pie is on the horizon too. No comments about domestication!!! I think cooking is a sign of being bored. I realised the other night that it’s the end of winter & I’ve only been skiing once. It breaks my heart because I wait all year for the snow. This year I was complacent.  I was scared to go by myself. I really should grow a spine & be more independant.  In addition there was (is) a lot going on with new boyfriend & he needs a bit more attention than usual.

So in place of skiing & riding my bike in the park (can’t do that in the city) I decided to start swimming again. It’s going pretty well so far (fingers crossed). I feel like I’m turning into a fat slob. Plus all the inactivity was having an effect on my sanity. So got myself a swish new swimsuit & screwed up my resolve to swim every night after work. No excuses, no chickening out & no laziness. Wish me luck!!

So basically I have nothing new to report & this was just a ramble. Although if anyone has any ideas on things to do for New Years let me know. Ciao until later.
