Hi Everyone, Well I haven’t done this before…but thought it was a great idea so decided to give it a try for the start of the new year!

Farley over at Oh’ Boy Fourth Grade regularly hosts ‘Currently.’ So I hope you enjoy reading a bit more about me and what I’m up to 😉

Listening – to my husband watching TV. He’s playing ‘flick’ the channel and I would much rather be listening to some nice music.

Loving – the cooler weather here. We’ve just had a week of temperatures ranging from 38C– 42C. No air conditioning tonight and loving the cool breeze that I can feel.

Thinking – about work and the presentation that I need to get ready for. I am preparing to talk to 300 prospective University students…I’m a little bit nervous.

Wanting – pure indulgence here….I would love a new iPad. I got a new iPhone for Christmas and love it, so now I’m thinking I really want a new iPad. Mmmmm maybe for my next birthday present!!

Needing – a foot massage. My feet are sore and I really need my hubby to give them a little bit of TLC 😉

One Little Word – HAPPY. I need to remember to stop and appreciate the small things that make me happy.

Thanks for reading and if you want to join in, then link up with Farley.

Cheers
Mel

Popping in from Currently & Hello from the other side of the country (Melbourne). You must have sent us the hot weather. It was 42C here today. I hope you get that foot massage. 🙂

  Oh no…I did see that it was going to be 42 in Melbourne today…hanging out in air conditioning is the best option 😉

Hi! I found your blog through the currently linky! A foot massage sounds amazing to me too! I wore the wrong heels on New Year’s and I’m in desperate need of one too! I’m glad I found your blog!

  Thanks for stopping by Marie. Yes I know all about the wrong shoes….I quite often wear them and then regret it for days after 😉

I, too, want an iPad! Every time I think I am going to purchase one, I come up with a list of items that I actually need. 🙂 I love your one last word!
