Morning Joy!!

Hey,

Was so excited to get up and check our blog this morning!! It's such a great way to see someone else's day, and I think the time difference makes it even more exciting, as we both have treats to wake up to! I had a lot of photos yesterday because of going out at the weekend (and also cos you asked me about the blog on Sunday so I had some time to prepare!) but it won't be like that all the time. I have to say though, that having this blog makes me keep my camera on me all the time just in case I see something cool to snap! I think there may be a self-timer on my camera too (I didn't think there was) so I will have to find out how to use it! Also I learnt how to post here from 43things so that's a lot of fun too! I feel like I am learning lots of new things recently!

Today I am feeling a bit moody - sometimes really low, sometimes really excited, so I need to try and stay calm! It's a beautiful day though and it's started very well; today's not an exercise day so I got up and did tai chi, had breakfast at home, easy ride to work, and an hour to have coffee and write in my journal before coming into the office.

It's funny what you said about us both liking languages and translation - I was thinking that yesterday when I was translating at work and knew you were doing translation work at the same time!! It's amazing how similar our lives are in spite of the obvious differences.

I really want to have a stellar day today and get some difficult stuff done as I know tomorrow I will be proud of myself and be able to relax a bit. This is my challenge for today! And also to stay positive! :D
