One long ramble - bare with me....

My goodness it has been chilly here.

To think that four months ago we were freaking out with temperatures over 40C. Last night the temp was about 2C around my house.

I was cold but I had the lovely quilt that Frogdancer made for me on top of my doona. I was toasty under the covers but when I put my head out, I just about freaked out. I had no time to worry as I was out and about and off to work about 7am. I got there by 7.30 so that I could take a theory class. They have their exam in 4 weeks time and I am determined to help them get a great result.

Normal teaching as well - then off to Singfest where a few of our cherubs were taking part. I went yesterday afternoon and I was quite surprised at the change that I heard when I got there. The woman who was running the show was quite amazing. What she produced from the kids was amazing. I learnt lots from the few hours I spent there.

Tomorrow I am off to Geelong to learn about VET and music. Funny thing -a piece of paper disappeared......Scott? anyone? If it was on my desk it probably did disappear! I know it wasn't, but my desk at work is a complete black hole. Things just disappear.

I am looking forward to the weekend - just a little bit! Heaps of things to do still but I am looking forward to the idea of a sleep in under my warm duvets and thinking warm thoughts in the chilly air.

Thanks Kitkat for the info re Frank Oz and the fact that Yoda is a serious Fozzie Bear. You sent me looking and now I found out he did Animal, Miss Piggy, Sam the Eagle from the Muppets not to mention Grover, Bert and Cookie Monster from Sesame Street. All my favourite characters!

Speaking of Favourite characters.......Avenue Q is coming to Australia and I must get to see it! I love the music from the show. If you are unfamiliar think Sesame Street a little risque! (in some cases very very naughty)

Glad the quilt works!

It's amazing how quickly the cold comes in once Anzac day has gone. Between Easter and Anzac we get teased with occasional cool/cold days, but after Anzac, the cold is more intense suddenly. You can almost hear heaters being turned on all over the state, and people unearthing the winter quilts they stashed away last summer.

Yeah - listen - I'm REALLY sorry I LOST the sheet! I must be - like - losing my mind or something, as I've never lost a sheet before. In fact I've never done anything so unprofessional or unlike me as lose something important for work ever before. But I guess there's always a first time...

Oh Scott........I haven't stopped laughing at the two stories I have heard....I know which one I trust though......
