Day Five - Blog Every Day in May 2014

We are up to day five of the blog every day in May challenge.

Today we are talking about zodiac signs.

I'm a Virgo.  

According to Zodiac Signs Astrology, I'm summed up as:

Virgo Strengths:

- Analytical
- Observant
- Helpful
- Reliable
- Precise

Virgo Weaknesses:

- Skeptical
- Fussy
- Inflexible
- Cold
- Interfering

Normally, I think they're a crock of shit.  But that list sounds about right.  Although I'm sure I read somewhere that Virgo's are supposed to be really neat.  I am far from neat, let alone really neat.

I think most horoscopes are written in such a way that they can be interpreted to something within your own life.  It's a skill, sure, but is it really based on when you were born?
 

Day Four - Blog Every Day In May 2014

It's Day Four of Clairey Hewett's blog challenge...

Today's prompt is:

Your Earliest Memory

I'm not sure what my earliest memory is.  Perhaps I only remember things because there are photos of it happening, or someone has told me about it?

I think I remember being at kinder.  I remember the teachers and how I arrived one morning and one of them said 'Well, Joanne, it looks like you've had your jumping beans for breakfast!'  

I remember having a dog called Tiny who we had to lock up in the shed when they were hunting foxes in the area because she was the same colour as the foxes.  I remember my 5th birthday party and how bottle feeding the lambs took the place of party games.

I remember my first day of school.  I had to go into the classroom and find my name on my desk.  I was very excited that I could read my own name.  And even more excited that I was on a table with some of the boys from my kinder.

I remember losing my first tooth while eating my lunch one day in grade Prep.  And then ACTUALLY losing the tooth.  I was devastated, because how would the tooth fairy come?  (Turns out, the tooth fairy will accept heartfelt letters explaining your predicament in lieu of an actual tooth)

Other than that, I don't remember much.

Day Three - Blog Every Day In May 2014

It's Day Three of the blog challenge.

Today's prompt: Changing Tracks – a song that you hear that reminds you of a certain time in your life.

It's cliched, but it's true. Whenever I hear songs from our wedding I'm instantly transported back to that day.

Chyken had assembled some of his mates and arranged some beautiful music for the ceremony. 

I walked down the aisle to 'You Were There', by Southern Sons. 

We signed the register to 'The Reason Why' by Mr Farnham, 'All Good Gifts' from Godspell and 'Just The Two Of Us' by Bill Withers. 

We left the church to 'Come Back Again' by Daddy Cool.
