Reasons to be cheerful:
I was feeling quite grumpy this morning and realised that I mostly update this LJ when I'm having a moan :-(
1. I have bought a mooncup at last! www.mooncup.co.uk
2. The Gather is now less than 2 weeks away :-) and I have a recipe for the shortbread thanks to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

3. We have the house to ourselves for a week.
4. I don't have to cook lunch today, because our French missionaries are doing a French lunch after church.
5. I have www.pandora.com on with Simon and Garfunkel radio, and have found loads of my childhood favourites on there. Puff the Magic Dragon, the Marvellous Toy, the Tarrier song, Whistling Gypsy, El Condor Pasa, Lord Franklin, and Over the hills and far away (with the fantastic line "over the hills and a long way off, the wind will blow my topknot off"!) so far this morning. They had a Jars of Clay song on the other day too.
6. I will hopefully seenepalisue on Saturday.
7. I have Google-Earthed every house I've ever lived in!
8. I have chocolate raisins :-) They're good for you, they're fruit!
9. Our inter-church youth houseparty (organised by the charity I work for) went really, really well - some of the kids on our forum are saying it's the best one they've been to so far, and some of them have been going twice a year for five years :-)
10. I've just been given some useful information which will make it much easier to do a job I have to do.
There - I was determined to get to 10.
1. The mooncup was not as easy as I'd hoped :-( But I'll persevere because I had the same trouble with tampax and contact lenses to start with ...
2. I have stomach cramps. I didn't want to take painkillers last night cos they make my mouth so dry and then I wake up coughing. But I'll take some now.
3. After I'd got up at 2am and again at 4.30 to get a drink and go to the loo, I was just dropping off again when someone thought it was a good idea to let off four very loud fireworks at 4.55am :-( They sounded like they were right outside, but probably weren't because sound seems to travel round the corner at night. Goodness only knows what they were for! My first thought was "boat in trouble" until I realised that we don't live half a mile from the coast any more, and even the river is about three miles away now.

have you trimmed the stem? mine's about 4-5mm which made it so much nicer...
