Hello! I’m Back!

Moving House Can Be Easy With The Right Support:

Are We Nearly There?

January 26th, 2010

For a long time my website was being hosted without ftp access due to some earlier problems with another website. I decided at the time I would just leave it ‘parked’ until my present hosting deal ran out, sometimes even the thought of moving can make you nervous. The time arrived when I had to make that decision a couple of days ago. I have just found the ideal webhost and am very happy to say, hopefully now I can continue to bring you lots of stuff and nonsense on a regular basis! I don’t mind plugging the new hosts since I went to them just five mins ago trying to work out how to get this site back up and within five mins they had the answer and it was simple, and as you can see – it worked. So, if you are looking for webhosting at an extremely good price – try iPage.com Thanks guys! Technical live help was ace!

Right, that’s my news for now… I’ve a lot of updating to do on the music front – so bear with me, and thanks again for your support

Oh and Happy New Year!

I Had The Craziest Dream Last Night Spiders?

Spiders?

I don’t know what it is about Spiders but yesterday they seemed to want to keep me company.

I wanted to sing a song – and my friend Kia had suggested I have a go at “More Than This” by 10,000 Maniacs as I’d played with Roxy Music’s version. So I thought I might.

I set my mic up as normal and then I discovered this wee money spider – it seemed to want to walk up and down the mic and the cable, couldn’t make its mind up! Was very funny because it would keep appearing out of nowhere. I carried on as if it wasn’t there and looked up to see, yes, it was walking along the top edge of the monitor.

Then the next thing I know is I’m smiling as I’m singing thinking about it’s antics only to see it danging from my hair!! I think it must have liked me.

Or was it trying to tell me something?  I have been experiencing some quite difficult times recently and both the song and the spider made me realise – there are some pretty wonderful little things in life to enjoy – and that what we have now is what we have… we can’t change the past, we can’t look into the future. Nothing is ever certain, so enjoy what you have, “you know there’s nothing, more than this”… moment… and the sun was shining.

The spider to me struck me like Rabbie Burn’s in the cave – you don’t give up, even when life isn’t smooth, hold onto your dreams instead, and live each moment as it comes and to its fullest possibility – even if it is only marveling at a friendly spider!

Here’s an embed of the song.   I did have one take where the spider was danging from my hair but I didn’t save it! Pity! I’ve another just after that moment where I am happy and say, I’ll save this no matter what, but I chickened out of putting public because it did freeze at the very end – argggh!

Later that night – without realising it, I dreamt about spiders! It occurred to me just now, I was in a large furniture like store with many double beds/ and on each bed was a white bedspread – and a huge spider would be wandering across each one I looked at! Normally, that should have made me nervous, but instead I merrily said to the staff, I think you need to do something about that? LOL.

I have the craziest dreams – I wonder what it meant?
