favourite day of week

TGIF is all I can say!  Actually everyday is a good day - even battling windy Wellington weather, we are still way better off than most, (thinking of everyone in Chch) so I musn't complain.

Looking forward to dinner, diving into my favourite chair by the fire (yes, even though its spring) and watching my favourite friday nite telly.

Paki up!

Finally.... I started a blogg!  I can't tell you how many journals I have commenced over the years, this looks like fun!

I'm nanny shaz, a nick-name given by work colleagues  who were all younger than me.  All is good, I love being nanny shaz.

Actually, I love lots of things, my family, my friends, my neighbours, my work, my church, my electric blankie,  the list goes on.  Favourite colour: black, how did you know? Favourite movie: Twilight saga's -  go team Bella! Favourite food: anything that starts with chocolate and ends with 'ice cream'....hence my favourite saying....


yeah right!
