Sad Loss

Posted by Shirley Anne on February 13, 2010

I am just taking a moment to remember the sad loss of a Winter Olympic competitor who lost his life in a tragic accident during a training session preparing for the games. The sport he was active in was the one man toboggan run. He was representing his country, Georgia.
It is worth remembering that some activities come with a measure of danger but the loss of life is a very sad thing.

Constant interruptions

Posted by Shirley Anne on February 13, 2010

I find myself being constantly interrupted. Whenever I am conversing with somebody their phone rings or somebody knocks on their front door. I will be trying to explain something about the job I am carrying out for them and it happens. I don’t know if this happens with other people but it sure does with me. My son, one of them, will call to see me and before long they get a call on their phone whilst we chat. Very annoying at times but I guess it is a sign of the times too. Sometimes I wish somebody would interrupt me, especially when I get talking with somebody who, shall we say, is boring the backside off me. Not a nice thing to say I know but there are such people lurking about the places I go. I know a couple who frequent my local pub! I seem to attract them for some unknown reason but then again, I am not a person to shun others when they want to talk. There is one guy I know and it isn’t his fault but he repeats himself over and over when he chats with me. When I say it isn’t his fault I mean he was born with a condition. Nice guy as he is though I can only take so much and actually welcome interruptions from other people. The sad thing is though they don’t want to get involved with him. He is the sort of person who, once latches on to you doesn’t want to let you go. I am sure you understand. Interruptions are sometimes good or sometimes bad things but I seem to get just annoying ones!
