I stored a whole stack of symbols in msg 80 and 86 in the following thread.

http://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/3...

I copy and paste them when ever I need a symbol, it sames me looking them up.

I like to poke my tongue out every now and then, it is so childish and good for the soul.

This is probably the first winter I've complained so much about the cold weather. Usually it gradually hits here but it was just an instant cold snap no getting used to it :s

I think we are getting the central heating looked at soon. Few rooms in the house are very cold, including where my pc is.


@Michael- Sweet..Not long til holidays then :D

From Carmel......

Are you guys aware of this hacking thing that's happened, I first heard about it from Amazon sending me an alert and have spent most of my day changing passwords on all I could think of, have to apparently configure my modem when I get home. I wanted to add this to the discussion thread but can't access it today, must be a pic in there stopping me.

message 2944: by Tracey (new)

Tracey Alley (traceya) | 485 comments I've been gone for so long and there's so many new people and so much going on, I'm almost giddy trying to absorb it all. We've had a sudden cold snap here in Sth QLD and I am not enjoying it at all, even though winter is usually my favorite season but I hadn't even had a chance to dust off the old heater before it was suddenly freezing. Add to that a chest infection I can't seem to shake and I've been spending almost all my time in bed trying to recover and stay warm.

I've also started a new book, completely different to my fantasy series. This one is a mystery/thriller with a huge twist at the end and I'm loving writing it so I hope readers will enjoy it also. No idea on a release date but it is practically writing itself so hopefully soon.

Cheers all,
Trace

Oh Tracey....great to have you pop in again!!! I'm super excited about your new mystery/thriller coming up!! That's my sort of book!!! Yay!! Keep us posted when you know the release date please :)

Do get better soon, you poor thing, you sure don't need a chest infection with it being so cold! It think it was an instant winter this year, started in Autumn! Will be a long one, I think :(


message 2946: by Tracey (new)

Tracey Alley (traceya) | 485 comments My mother had five brothers and they were all old bushies from way back and they all said the same thing. Get a short, hot, summer look forward to a long, cold, rainy winter - I hate it that they're always right lol

★ Jess  | 3071 comments Hello world! Im back. For an hour or so, at least.
Exams are on Monday-Wednesday, and I have been studying like crazy. In fact, my mum just said ive been studying so much over the last few days, I get the rest of the night off (I deserve it!)
Im really freaking out about the maths, science & hums exams, though I would be ready to sit english right now, and am surprisingly confident about french. Im on the fence with PE/health.
ITS SO STRESSFUL!!!!!! But it really draws the class together, in a strange way.
Anyway, thats all I have to say :)

As soon as I saw your post I thought...what are you doing..you have exams..lol

Lovely to see you if only for a little while Jess! Good luck with it all, they'll be over soon..:)

Michael - if you head for Queensland go past the south-east corner, particularly the Darling Downs! We've just had a week of "southern" winter, drizzling and miserable, very cold, and are now looking forward to heavy frosts the next few days. Pipe-busters. Though at least the sun is supposed to come out. Hope the westerly winds stay away too.

Yep, definitely go to Cairns!
