Surprised and other rambles

I've made it through the second round of [livejournal.com profile] merlin_ldws! This amazes me since I had doubts about both my drabbles. But I'm pleased because I actually wrote and posted two fics in two weeks! Cross your fingers I keep going :) I think I shall post them to my journal soon.

I'm considering a change to my journal page. Though I loooooove my Jaylee header, maybe it's time for a change? It is a very long time since I made any changes. But on the other hand...

The LG was sick today and after attending a 'must attend' meeting I came home to mind him. We have had a surfiet of day time and children's tv as a consequence :) My personal favourite is Shaun the sheep. I love that show! :DD It's always good for a laugh.

This last year I've been totally remiss and missed many many birthdays! I apologise flist - I'm still here and love you all! *hugs madly*

you? change your layout? Not sure I could handle such a big change like that. I mean, it's like one of the few LJ constants :p

it's like one of the few LJ constants :) I know! It would be my second time ever since I joined up in 2006 :D It might be too much for my constitution.

you should make it kick ass if you do change it. I'd be willing to do you a header if you want.

I'm still thinking :) But thanks for the offer! I've never made much more than an icons, so if I can't do it - I'll turn to my flisters! *hugs*

Hi! I just thought that I would pop over here and say how sorry I am that you were eliminated this week! Your drabble was really good - the last line was a sucker punch that really worked. It was just a really outstanding week, I thought. Every week I've thought that, and every week the competition is just getting tighter and tighter!

Anyway, I was browsing your other stuff too. I was really sad when Dick Francis died too. The first of his books that I read was one where the hero was a groom on a small airline that flew horses around Europe and like you I collected all his books. I'm so sad that unless there is an unpublished manuscript lying around there will never be another 'Dick Francis' for Christmas :(

Take care and have a good week!

Hi there! Thanks for your lovely comment :) I'm glad you liked the drabble, it was the one I was most hesitant about. I loved yours - it was awesome. I'll be watching to see how everything turns out and will be giving round 2 a go if I can...

I know I miss my fix of racehorses and mystery :( I was pretty much always in love with his characters - how about you?
