I decided last night... to go to Melbourne in mid-june to attend my niece's Police Graduation! I had thought it would not be possible as Stew is away... but he is going to take some time off work and come home and look after the kids so I can go! I AM WRAPT.
Finally, something to look forward to... and I hear the shopping over there ain't half bad either! OOOOO! *DROOLING* shopping....lol.
Today: kids to school then hot foot it into town for my hair appointment.... that will kill the whole morning... then home to catch up on some blogs! I didn't read many yesterday as I was feeling so ill..... feeling quite a bit better today. later...
I have had a NICE day! Had the hair done, it looks just the same! And I love it....
I had lunch with my mate Chris D and her hubby, then I went and had me darn blood test (it was only 4 weeks overdue, come on people!)... then I went and booked me flights to Melbourne.... 
then I picked up Steve and brought him home so he could fix a couple of dings in the walls...
So all is good today, I'm feeling so much better today.... yipee.
End of Day: it's been a nice day, I havn't felt miserable at all today! and watching Steve do some gardening made me day too! I hates gardening! And I didn't want Stew coming home for just a day and a half and having to do bloody gardening! I cooked us all a lovely dinner of pork chops and veges.... delish.
NSV: I have had the day "off"... as I always do the day after weigh in.... it's kinda like a 'reward' for being good all week. works for me. nite nite.
I am jealous! I would love to see Melbourne.

ReplyDeleteMy in-laws had two deaf dalmations named Sydney and Melbourne. My father-in-law often worked in Australia and New Zealand during the late 80's and early 90's. My in-laws are now divorced. My father-in-law lives in Kuala Lumpur and now works all over Asia.

Hi Chris
ReplyDeleteI am happy to hear that you are feeling better and are going to Melbourne. There's nothing like a break/ few days away from home when one feels a bit down.
