Pottering around The Works

Met the woman who I gave the first book to again today but didn't have time to go for a cup of tea .. she's lent her book out to someone else who wants to read it .. and she asked me if that was ok .. well, it's her book and she can do what she likes with it. I just think it's a good book to have on ur bookshelf!!! I think the other person knows about the author though. The other woman can worry about things a bit .. the book has obviously grown to mean a lot to her. It's good on the comparrison line. Gosh, it seems to have changed life for her though .. so much more spontaneity and general happiness. Nothing else .. just the book and a couple of cups of tea!!!! She's reading Buddhist philosophy which I guess was what interested me a lot once. I guess it's how you respond to things.

I've not done much today cause I woke up rather snuffly and with a headache .. went out getting on for five. I'd been really tired today and had been falling asleep at the computer .. well, I guess falling asleep isn't quite how I should describe it .. but dozing on and off for thirty seconds or so. Guess me cold had broken out a bit.

I'll be in bed on time tonight. I have me experience of the other day to remind me. lol!!! I will tell her .. but, not quite yet, I'm too tired to have to start talking about all that's happened. I know she knows something's been going on .. and has been hinting a bit .. but I really have felt too tired to start going into it all. Then I'll get to hear her experiences if there are any .. she and her partner work in the medical field and I suspect that there are stories to tell from her side too because of things she's said. Just at the moment I'm too tired though.

Once I was so flabbergasted that I talked about it all a lot .. but, I don't feel like that any more. Maybe it's because any fear has gone and I just don't need to .. it was so interesting hearing from other people too.

The Works has been brilliant .. the specs are good and just what I needed. And there was a pack on Egyptian hieroglyphics that interested me a lot .. I'd just got my arabic books out again and it had reminded me .. so I was really pleased to see a child's hieroglyphic set there for a couple of quid .. a memory aid and two art instruction packs caught my eye too .. cartoons, one a manga one and the other more Beano style .. just fer a couple of quid. Couldn't open the packs to look in .. but from what I could see they looked good. It's great to see things like that out there .. I know of one lady who buys art books for her kids from The Works and I guess these new ones will be added too.

I liked this best out of the hieroglphic translators etc that I found together on the net. Just click on Ancient Egypt to find them.

On the other site you can get to other pages by clicking on the symbols on the top of the page. Also clicking on the hieroglyphs to find out more about them.

I know who's gonna enjoy this ... lol!!!!

I gotta start thinking about getting some sleep now.
