Muttley - The Dog

Muttley (the Doggy Tale) has been part of every Saturday's Newspaper. Its an article following the life of a dog. Well only last week we came to know that he has been diagnosed with a big heart.... and does not have long to live!!!

Tragic news.

And sooo saddening!!!

My heart goes out to his family. :(

Lipstick

Men and lipsticks!!!

Hmmm Just think about it!!! If you are a guy then what comes to your head when you read the word "lipstick"?

Colour? Flavour? Taste? or how to apply lipstick?

Crazy huh.... But then why the big difference between Lipstick, lip gloss and chapstick... Ladies use lipgloss ... whereas Guys only use Chap Stick.... :) Only difference is Lip and Chap!!!

Today somehow my colleagues (male friends) started talking about lipstick... And then they started showing me and telling me on "How To" apply lipstick!!!! They were pouting at each other and making faces and demonstrating with a make believe lipstick :) Utter fun.... I had no idea that they THINK about this.... But then when I think about it.... they DO comment whenever I wear lipstick :)

I think I should bring some makeup to work and leave it on my table... you know... just for emergencies... or maybe for some demonstrations!!!! :)

My House

Ground Breaking for construction of our house was last week on 10th September 2008. The actual planning has been one long project and until it is completed we cannot have any peace. Now here are some of the things that I'll be going for.

1. Pine Decking at the Back for those lazy afternoons and b.b.q's
2. Small pond for lotus, fish and water plants
3. Big Bulk under the decking for storage
4. A closed off cook's garden for the vegetables and herbs
5. A greenhouse for the plants.
6. Going Solar for all my lighting needs. Plan are to go completely solar but this move is heavily dependent on cash flow so most likely will go in installments.
7. Have solar A/C 's in all rooms.

We are trying to go green with our house and somethings of note are:
1. Growing own vegetables
2. Go Solar (Lighting/A/C's)
3. Have compost bins
4. Collect all water (rain) for all gardening and washing purposes.
5. Practice the 3 R's (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle)

These are the plans anyway.
