Blessings...

Yes, that is exactly how I am feeling right now... although hoping I don't actually look that bad in reality. :(
I have a streaming cold... and its JUST when I have so much going on!!
So - it is the perfect time to remember to count my blessings, its so easy to become ungrateful!
I'm so privileged, I have - a family who I love, lovely friends, a wonderful church, clothes and food and so many other things I don't deserve.
When I think of the millons of other children in this world, without homes, parents or things we take for granted, it makes me realise I really can't complain about a little common cold!
And it has its funny side...
I'm supposed to be recording a speaking test in Mandarin. Try pronouncing tones with a blocked nose... no kidding, its a joke!... ;)

Logic. Bees. Buzzing Noises

'That buzzing-noise means something. You don't get a buzzing-noise like that, just buzzing and buzzing, without its meaning something. If there's a buzzing-noise, somebody's making a buzzing-noise, and the only reason for making a buzzing-noise that I know of is because you're a bee.'
- Winnie-the-Pooh

Now that is what I call pure logic!

 I just thought I'd post this because that quote is so awesome. At least, I think it's awesome.
