Different folks and different strokes
Posted: Friday, 31 October 2008 |
Im back after a lengthy time without internet connection. Not being too technical minded, I dont know what was wrong but I do know that it is now fixed. Yippee.
Seems like quite a while since I was on here.
I have been attending various meetings and getting my winter evening entertainments sorted. Apart from the drama group, I have been along to a few other meetings for other groups.
I find it amazing how different people in a group can have such a positive or negative effect on the group. I went along to a meeting on Wednesday night for a group ( not saying what one it was) and met the most bumptious (if that is a word), rude and full of herself lady who was resigning from the group that I wanted to join. All I can say is that if I had turned up to join and she was still a "leading light" I would have marched straight back out. It made me realise that maybe there were so few people attending meetings or joining the group because they had encountered this lady before. Thank goodness she has gone, hope she does not come back ( valuable though her contribution may have been in the past) and hope this group moves on without her.
The comments above make me sound like a real witch ( apt as it is halloween). I`m not, honest. Just wanting to enjoy myself and my free time without being involved in others private crusades for glory.
I heard today ( whilst in the library) that the library staff had their wee staff room broken into and a handbag stolen while they were working in the library. And thieves had even taken a cable from one of the computers at the library desk. All this while the library was open. Its terrible when you feel you cant trust folk around you!!!
The weather last week was absolutely appalling. Welcome to the Winter. However another gorgous day today. Sun shining, leaves crispy but cold, cold, cold. BUT NOT raining.
Names for today are
Innes and India
Hope you are all warm and well wherever you are.
Regards
Wilma
