qwiddityAt the moment I'm using the computer to hole up for a moment to get away from everyone. I need some time out from my family since they are just about in a state of semi-feud at the moment. *smile* Oh well, they're all completely nutty.
My dad is on the phone from Russia too... calling my mother's mobile. Oh well I'm sure he can increase their national debt by a little. :)
*laugh*
Hrm, someone's playing Tchaikovsky (spelling?)... okay well at least it isn't the 1812 Overture, that would be a little tacky for a funeral, even though it was heard that the French ran away. Granny didn't like the French for some reason - I never found out why.
I think I will...
Actually I won't, I'll be bodily dragged off the computer and taken off to do some shopping. Well, buying stuff for other people, which is weird.
I've been taken out to the Rockhampton Shopping Centre and around Woolworths, a florist, a music store... camera shop. Now I have new film so that I can have a record of the funeral service for my father who is in Russia at the moment, we have 36 roses (significant number although I'm not sure why), and also I have a new CD.
A Ravel collection with 'Bolero' on it. A part of a symphony performance by the London Philharmonic. Since my grandmother was British (well I am too I suppose, I'm not really an Australian), I'm sure she'd approve. :)
The best thing however was going to Woolworths however and buying a whole heap of fruit to go in a fruit salad! So I made a massive thing of fruit salad with honey and cinnamon and yoghurt. :)
*groan*
I ate the whole thing too. I feel stuffed.
We will shortly be off to go to the funeral service and I should go downstairs after I finish this. I'll have to read part of a eulogy and everything, it all needs to be done for that closure that we all need.
Some words are funny. Like kumquats. Also pickles. Mulling I also like!
