‘Too often we underestimate the power of a touch, a smile, a kind word, a listening ear, an honest compliment or the smallest act of caring, all of which have the potential to turn a life around.’ - Leo F Buscaglia

I adore this song and until today I had no idea how much airplay it got in my office!  I guess that’s what makes a good song - it just kinda makes it’s way into your day to day life - like a soundtrack.  Now if only I could get Claifornia  Gurls to play constantly  and then maybe it would be summer again(and I’d be living in a world much like Willy Wonka’s) !? Although maybe getting sick of Katy Perry!

My kitty always knows it’s ‘that time of day’ where I should stop working and give him some attention.  He’s snuggled up on my lap and started head-butting me.The most adorable alarm clock ever….

 In other news I had a little ‘carrie’ moment yesterday, although I didn’t realise til after.  I have a ‘Katie’ nameplate with a butterfly that was a gift from my late grandfather.  It split in two (the e broke off from the rest). I was in the car with mrsteve and I cried, like a baby.  Sentimental value is such an emotional thing.  I hope it can be repaired, maybe even strengthened? I don’t want a new one.

Just a test of the iPhone app.

I titled it this way because it may not be relevant to half of you Well, probably more than that.  I watched this today due to a link from somewhere and I felt I could really relate to it? Maybe it’s just me - I do the lonely eating thing (helloooo spoonfulls of Nutella!) but it’s nice to feel I’m not alone in that.  I do it a lot less now than I used to and when I really ‘must’ eat something snacky I make myself CHOOSE conciously that I’m going to have the strawberries or the chocolate/chips and then I have to stick with that choice, nowdays - the choice is usually the healthier stuff.

Anyway, watch this if you feel like you’re struggling with weight loss - it will make you feel a little more normal
