G'day all! My friends wanted me to put these goggles on. Then they practically peed themselves with excitement. Not one of them looked and said eh. Nope, all weeing themselves. They think I should drive a tank (not a very small Helmet). They are all geeks and nerds, the lot of them. Of course, cos they are my friends. *sigh* (Look up Tank Girl, if you have no idea what I am talking about) I had another successful day. I spent much too much money ($25 citrus? I want! I've wanted a tahitian lime for ages cos I use limes in my cooking. Also a seedless valencia orange looks good too - we have a similar climate, a bit wetter, to San Jose and various fruit trees do well here)($99 market umbrella in blue with led lights affixed? Yeah!). I pulled out a heap of weeds - see this heap? It is nearly a metre high by close to a metre by a metre. It is big. (I guess that means it is pretty much a cubic metre, eh? That is a lot of weeding for one person, no wonder my back is sor...

G'day all! Today I pretty much finished my first work project. It is awaiting signoff. Yay me! Plus I tried to get better pics of me and my hair. I failed, though I can't blame the phone camera given it was under artificial light. Tomorrow! Tomorrow! There's always tomorrow... I am getting used to seeing this freak with pink hair following me around everywhere. Well relatively used to it. Hey, who's got pink hair? I can see a reflection. They are wearing the same clothes as me. Oh, it's me! Reactions are generally positive except for the people who just look at me. LOL I guess I should've gotten sponsored to do it but I didn't. However I'm happy to chat to people about the various reasons why I've done it. a) cos I've wanted to have pink hair for ages (also blue hair, green hair and purple hair) b) it is breast cancer awareness month c) I'm being treated for BC d) I may or may not die of this but jeez I may as well have fun along ...

G'day all! I'm in the pink today! (and tomorrow and the day after and the day after and for however long this semi-permanent colour lasts 8-) I'm very pink! Still knitting mitten madly - amazing how much mitten you can knit whilst sitting with bleach on your hair then with pink on it. I've knitted a bit over half of it now. I was late to radiotherapy but that was ok cos they were running late too! I've now started boost, which means they irradiate a 10cm circle around the tumour bed. They don't line me up quite as carefully now and the linac has a weird apparatus attached to it to hone the beam on the right spot. And they loved my hair colour. LOL When I got home, I put on some extra sunscreen, a scarf and a beanie (I don't want a sunburnt scone and neck) and mowed the grass. It is a lovely day today but I started feeling a bit crisped by the end of it. And grr, I found out why the chooks don't seem to be laying much now. Boldie was desperate to...
