Hey, I was sure that I’d posted this on Friday … no wonder nobody responded!

The rules:

1. List the last ten people who have commented on your blog
2. If you’re on my list then you should do the meme on your blog too

This was my list of commentators at 12.00 today [well, last Friday].

  1. Linda / Beatrice
  2. Nag on the Lake
  3. Silverstar
  4. spacecadette
  5. B’elana
  6. DKL
  7. Beth
  8. Blues Shark
  9. Anneke
  10. healingmagichands

Now for the questions . . .

kick-ass az

I have received this KickAss Blogger award from alejna!

I saw this while I was in hospital yesterday and it both cheered me up and choked me up, especially when alejna wrote: What I find most endearing about az is that she makes it easy for me to forget that I haven’t met her in “real life” . I remember her telling me that before, I think when we started playing online scrabble, and it’s just about the nicest thing anyone has ever said about me. Thanks for that, honey, as well as the rest of that blush-making tribute.

I’m supposed to pass this award on, but as my online time is somewhat restricted at the moment (this danged J-shaped scar is causing quite a bit of pain and keeps making me lie down), I’m going to pass the buck instead and suggest that you all nominate yourselves and then pass it along.

yay!

Thanks to this little gadget (and the lovely & amazingly wonderful Pipocas) my looming hospital experience is now looking to be much less tedious than the last one. I was planning on taking Nog’s laptop with me to watch DVDs anyhow (his is smaller and more portable than mine) but now I’ll also be able to go online! Isn’t that fabulous? So I’ll be able to blog and chat and play scrabble whilst trying to ignore my roommate’s blaring television programmes. Of course this will only happen once I am able to sit up and move around … I’m hoping by day 3 after the op.

Muchísimas gracias, Pipocas!

where do you blog?

I got this idea from Silverstar, who has a very cosy looking blogging space. This is where I sit to blog  and otherwise obsess spend time on the internet (when I’m not curled up with the laptop in bed ). It’s pretty minimalist, but all of casa az tends to be fairly uncluttered. What it normally isn’t is this tidy – Nog has recently dusted and reorganised the bookshelves (an annual event here). As you can see,  there are more books than last year and my IKEA wheelie chair is now falling to bits, but I actually kind of prefer it without the back piece.

I like blogging in here because it’s a big bright room and yet still feels cosy somehow, here in my little corner. Note large cat in corner of photo stealing smaller cat’s food …

Where do you blog from?
