So let me see… Some running around this morning. The post office was fun this morning… I needed to post off four parcels and pick up one… Three of the parcels were eBay items and one was normal things that I sell. The people at the post office now not only know me by name, but also know the PO Box number off by heart… And would you believe they even let me fill in the ‘Office Use Only’ part of the customs declaration. I am not sure if you can get accounts at the Post Office, but if this continues I will need to get one I think. <\/p>\n
Following that I went to get some other things for some projects – dropping in THE WAREHOUSE on the way. I have been looking for some more furniture for my office, and picked up a couple of ‘stackable cubes with shelves for $17 each. Now I have seen them I can see myself getting at least another couple. This however has lead to a rearrangement of my desk. At one stage I had my iPod playing but had no idea where it was on my desk. It was there somewhere. I found it, and now have it in its place. But the rest of the desk is in chaos, but getting cleaner. Also, getting a couple of six way powerboards helped too… <\/p>\n
When I was out I heard a Natalie Merchant song that I first discovered probably a week or so back. The song is ‘Beloved Wife’<\/a>, and I am guessing it was not written by her. Anyway I guess you would call it a lament… It is telling of a man who has lost his wife of 50 years, wondering how he will cope; but also telling of the love they shared. I purchased this CD in the USA in 2004, and I have been slowly discovering it ever since. <\/p>\n you were the love So let me see… Some running around this morning.

for certain of my life
for 50 years simply my beloved wife
with another love I’ll never lye again
it’s you I can’t deny
it’s you I can’t defy
a depth so deep
into my grief
without my beloved soul
I renounce my life
as my right
now alone without my beloved wife
my beloved wife<\/i><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
