We used to do this. Mine seem bizarre.
1) the screen in my vehicle that shows satellite radio went black for a few seconds today. That seems different than the satellite music just cutting out.
2) While waiting at the stop light a woman with a cane fell very hard on the sidewalk. Fortunately there was a younger woman there, and a man crossing going that way. It is still icy. She sure didn't get up quickly, but was conscious.
3) The coffee machine short changed me. 2x.
Got some?

1) This continual freezing weather is getting to me. My entire body is still tired.
2) It's annoying that people send things via a sharing site that not everyone has access to and then get testy when you ask them to either add you or send the document.
3) I have this barely controllable urge to go rub everyone's forehead of the dirt.

I'm sure I will see some of your handiwork later today. I heard on the news, you can get a drive-by.
On my #3 I just realized that my coffee pod was smaller, thus the smaller coffee. I hate that damn machine.

1) In 3 hours I can remove the giant wrap on my knee and take my first shower in 3 days. (I had knee surgery Monday.) I may even go for a very slow walk down the street which will hopefully help with the cabin fever I have from being stuck on the couch.
2) The back up camera in my car still freaks me out, I can't entirely trust it, and have to continue physically looking back.
3) Why do people insist on having phone conversations while in the stall peeing or pooping? Just NO!

1. Have such craving for blue cheese and red wine. Two months to go until I can have the blue cheese at least. Think that will be MrCat's first job while I am in hospital.
2. Nine weeks left of work before maternity leave starts.
3. We are talking about going back to Wales for Christmas this year. I am partly excited about spending Christmas with my family for the first time in 17 years and partly freaked out at the thought of trying to keep both sides of the family happy.

Yes, but a reversing camera makes it very easy to gauge distances accurately- reverse parking into confined spaces becomes so much easier, for example. It's handy for people with arthritic necks and shoulders, too, as mirrors don't show everything and it is necessary to look back.
Best wishes, Oweena, from one who's had both knees done. I can't think of any 3 things.

1. The ATM is working again. This is a very good thing as I am almost out of pesos and wasn’t sure how I would deal with being penniless. (This place in Mexico where I am doesn’t use credit cards). 2. Ran into friends I used to work with. The world is a small place. 3. Swimming in the ocean feels really good.

I have had three cats in my life. 1. Timmy 2. Ginger 3. Luke
The first was when I was a little girl and I can still remember putting him in my dolly's pram, covering him up with a blanket tucking him up and taking him for walks.
The second I bought before my first child was born, I rather spoiled him. I had to give him away because he was jealous of the baby and I was scared he would kill her.... I can remember giving baby her bottle, her head was was exposed above the crook in my left arm and Timmy sitting on the floor directly under baby's head. It was his eyes that scared me.
The third was a beautiful black Persian with a little bit of white under his chin. Very affectionate, very smart. Would make a beeline for any person who hated cats! He'd sit on the floor at their feet and stare intently, un-nerving the hater before jumping onto their lap moving around in circles doing that thing with his claws!
Sadly, he was hit by a car. No more pets now. Now I collect bits and pieces from my travels.

I can't think of any 3 things. But that is three things! Mine are: 1. I only had three hours sleep last night 2. I finished my third dinner in a row of delicious Sri Lankan beetroot curry, potato song [south indian] and tomato rasam [south indian] 3. I am already planning dinner tomorrow night at the local Chinese restaurant - we are addicted to their crispy, chilli, pepper squid

1. Work meetings that are just an excuse to eat chocolates rock (yay, birthdays!). 2. I haven't worked a 5-day work week since January because I'm using up last year's vacation days. 3. Looks like cycling season soon. And I've still got to get around to buying a new bike.

1. I've missed you guys. My routine has changed so I'm online less, or at least dicking about online less.
2. Since I've been here I got made redundant and then started a new job, which seems ok.
3. My New Year's Goal was to try and get letters after my name this year (specifically CEng MICE). And I started well bit it's so.damn.boring and I'm way behind on getting the work done. I'm hoping the looming first part deadline will help, and yet, here I am...

1. Marriage is hopefully going strength to strength after some major difficulties. Its been an interesting 6 months. Things are much better.
2. I've finally seen a neurologist and I'm going to have botox injections to deal with my migraines which are out of control.
3. Dog pierced her lip on a fish hook yesterday 🙄 Suffice to say we're getting really good at dog first aid in this house with her escapades.

1. very positive final meeting with client about recent project. very happy that this project went so well. 2. I need to start doing things about my search for new work. I think I know more or less what I want, but not yet setting in motion the things I need to do to get it. 3. feeling much better than yesterday, which was a day of constant headache and tiredness.

Mmmm, masala dosa.
1. Day 6 of consecutive migraines today. I guess coming off the preventatives too quickly was a bad idea.....
2. Have cancelled my tooth extraction tomorrow as a result - I wasn't looking forward to that anyway!
3. I might sack off the diet at lunchtime and have sausage rolls. Mmmm.

1. I have so much reading to do for the consulting work I'm doing. Yet I sit and read books for pleasure. 2. Why do I keep looking at travel sites? I've got a trip booked for 2 months from now, but somehow that doesn't seem soon enough. 3. The dog is in need of his morning walk, I should really get on that.
