2004 Over

20004 is nearly over. My heart goes out to those who have suffered in the last few days in the Indian Ocean. I have, as many others have, donated what I can to help.
I have not had access to the internet for a few days because some bastard had hacked my computer. I am not a firm or a government agency. I am just an ordinary computer user but these bastards still hacked into my computer and deleated a few files. Why? So they could send spam? I must admit my firewall was not in place... more fool me in that respect. These people I wish bad luck to. How dare they do what they do! Hell do it to corporations if they must but a home computer user?
Hell I do not keep any private information or banking details on my computer... yet... I do have my novels and short stories stored on my computer. Maybe they are so good they could become block-busters. I should wish!!!
Arseholes of the computer hacker world drop dead!!
Pick on the big boys/girls you wimps.

I do wish the world good luck.

Sad last week

2004 draws to a close and once again the news is of a disaster. Thousands of live have been lost resulting from the tsunami's that have resulted from an underground earthquake in an area that has not had any. A great sadness.
I believe in an afterlife and reincarnation. I believe the spirit lives on even when the body has been destroyed. Those that died are safe and are in better health than they have ever been on this plane of existence.
This knowledge does not give comfort to those left behind in the grip of despair and sorrow.

A White Christmas

Yesterday Christmas Day was indeed a white Christmas. I and Jerry Lee seemed to be the only living things to be up and about when I took JL for his morning walk as our foot/paw prints were the only marks in the snow. Crunch...such a satifying sound we made walking in the snow.
A nice relief from all the hassel that has been happening lately. Good not to see some sour faced neighbours.

Roll on the New Year which I do not look on as a new start, that will somehow make all well. I just want to be able to get a fews things started. Can not get anything accompliced between Christmas and New Year.

Next Year is pay back time for some.

Friends become enemies

You think you are friends then in a blink you're not. We wonder why nations can't see eye to eye but at least they have diplomat's to help. Well my foray as a 'diplomats' only made matters worse and I don't give a damn! If anything I am rather pleased 'chuffed' with myself for supposedly intimidating a women who is twice my size (I am a bit on the plump size and she is built like a tank) plus I am only 5'2" and she is 5'9". Well her son rang me and made terrible accutaions against my husband. Really distressed me. My Tom demanded that William apologized for the lies he said. William was getting himself involved with a matter that is going to court and nothing to do with him. I and my stupid Tom met William in the street and punched him, in front of me because he would not apologies, I never thought William would. Takes a big man to apologies when in the wrong. Really does! William went home to his mother and complained to her heck William is not a child he is 20 years old and still hides behind his overbearing mother. So Mother M see Toms' brother who had just arrived to stay for Christmas and confronts him. Poor Neil had no idea what she was on about. So William is going to give evidence against Tom in an other matter to which he was not present. A little perjury I would think? Make sense? Not to me. So I decided to have a chat to Mandy myself and sort things out. Sensible women to sensible women so to speak.
I knock at door she opens door. Says 'don't want to talk to you' and shuts door.
I call through letterbox. 'What does William say happened?'
She replies 'I am calling the police.'
I reply 'Okay I will wait for them.' I hear her on the phone calling them. I then sit on a chair in her front garden to wait. I knew they wouldn't be long.
She then sends some guy out to speak to me.
No idea who he was. Funny...The first thing he asks was...'Is Tom your son?' Excuse me!!!
We talked civily after I informed him I did not have any children and that I could not have children and I considered his remark to be cruel. If Mandy had told him the truth surly she would have said I was the wife of Tom. Yes I am older than Tom but not enough to be his mother. What cheek!!
A policeman turned up after about five minutes and unidentified man is gone. I said hello to police and asked for his name and number. P.C. Agro gave me his number only and went into M's house. Then an police van and a policeman I had met before got out so I greeted him and he patted Jerry Lee, oh yeah had by boy with me. He then went into house. A little later both came out, all the while I remained seated on the chair. Keeping my good humour, heart pounding inside, I told them that I would have left if she had not said she was calling them. P.C. Nice informed me I could have been done for 'breach of the peace'. We had a pleasant conversation. Even P.C. Agros changed his manner and started to smile. Nice said that Mandy had been intimiated by me and she was in fear of her life...whow..!!! Something in his voice as he said it made me smile, as if...!!
No charges, pleasant goodbyes to both Nice and not-so-Agro and that was the end of the incident.
I have to admit I felt good as I walked away. Mandy is an overbearing bully and gets people to do what she wants by manipulation. I have always disliked her but her husband also called Tom is/was my Tom's friend. Mandy has in the past manuvered me into doing things for her I never wanted to ie knit 2 cardigans for her daughter and do 2 x-stitch patterns for her.
I just feel contempt for her now. I know that she will never ever boss me again.
I have been ill for quite a long time but the help I have gotten from health workers and others has made me so much stronger in mind as well as the old body. I was abel to cope with the situation. I am proud of myself in that regard.
So out of bad comes some good.

Sparkling roads

The one thing I like about winter is the frost. It gives a lovely sparkle to the world. The roads and pavements for once look quite pretty as if decorated for Christmas. The lovely crunch of the grass as it gets walked on. Only draw back is its damn cold slippery. My poor dog Jerry Lee running along following some scent or other hits a patch of ice and skids into a wall. Poor love shook himself and took off again and promptly skid again. this time he came back to mum looking sorry for himself. I have already got him his presant and given it to him. A large soft stuff mouse from the PDSA charity shop. His last suffed toy a blue bear lost its stuffing quite a few times and now it can not be repaired anymore. It lasted six months which is not bad. I think it is so cute to see a German Shephard running around with a toy bear in its mouth. It makes a change from the branches he normally carries.
My husbands brother has graced us with his presence rather early for Christmas and he intends to stay till the new year. Will I be able to keep my good humour and my sanity or will I just leave home? My husband solved the problem by going to bed early today and I mean early! 6pm!! He had better not do so every day or he is in big trouble.
I refuse to let buggerlugs spoil my festive season. Yeah easy to say!
Probably it will not be as bad as I think it will. Ohhh yeah????

Interesting Times

Things are taking place in the Middle East which bare watching. I would think that most people in the Western world will not really be bothered about the protests in Saudi just one group of Muslims not liking the other lot. No-one I know could care less. Saudi Arabia is far away and is there anything to be bothered about and the ruling Family are not to be messed with. Oh Yeah? If the Saudi Government were to be changed/over thrown and a fundalmentalist or other group should take over then we would have to take note of the quatrains of ol' Nostradamus. This could very well lead to things happening........?
I think that what is happening should be watched. This could lead to an uprising of sorts that will spread throughout the area and then Europe will be in the line of fire.

Christmas - how many more

Christmas is fast approaching. I intend to celebrate this one like most other people will around the world. How many more Christmas' will the world celebrate in peace? One maybe two? Will 2006 Christmas be a pivotal time? Christmas 2007 will the world be in full war mode? Will the Anti-Christ be on his crusade of conquest?
There will be a new Pope and a new President of the USA if I have interpreted Nostradamus correctly. So the next two years are going to be rather interesting if frightening as well.

All those children who expect presents at Christmas - particularly the spoilt ones will be in for such a shock. How will they cope? How will their parents? When it boils down to it. How will we all?

Foggy

The last few days the weather has been foggy. I love this type of weather. Creates an eryrie atmosphere as well as dulling all sounds which is calming in its self. It is wonderful to walk the dog through the countryside on days like these. Even the sun takes on a different gown. It becomes relatively safe to look at as it attemps to make itself seen. A white round ball in the sky almost imitating is cousin the moon.
But as usual the weather starts to clear. Well I do have admit that if it were foggy continuously it would eventually get one down.

I could become rather sanctimounious and equate this to religion but I wont. Yet I have.
