Here we are again!

Okay, it is Monday. Had a very busy weekend, and am not feeling the best as it is. Nothing dreadful, just stress I think. With any luck, the rest of the day will float by nicely.

Friday I had a Dr appointment, so did my sis-in-law. We went together, and then came back to the city together. Then went to dinner with our husbands in Sunbury. It was kinda cute. We ended up having lunch at the train station, before we went out to our Dr's. Then Saturday, I was at work by 8am, and worked until 1:30pm. Went home, and hung out with GM for a while, until we did some running around. I think we ate dinner at 9pm that night. Then Sunday, we went to The Rocky Horror Picture Show (Theatrical Production). I thought it was fantastic. Then we went to dinner. Turned out to be a lovely day with just a hiccup or two.

We played Wii in there somewhere too. I guess there is not too much going on at the moment, which is not bad!

Hope you all have a great day!

Friday again!

Well, not too much going on. Just a quiet morning at work. Life is good, health is good, GM is good, and Ralphy is good. All around, not much to complain about. . . lol.

I am hoping to night will be an early night, and may get GM to watch a movie with me. Otherwise, I need to tackle the craft room, and get it under control, as it is storage for all the crap we are taking back to the states on our holiday as well as my craft room. And of course I would love to Wii, if I get some time.

Tomorrow is a train trip with GM. I am not completely sure about it, as I take trains every work day. But, I know GM will love it, and it is a day out. I think we are leaving at 7:30 in the morning, and will get home about 8pm. Ralphy will be pissed. I have a good book to read, and an ipod to listen to. Of course that is only if GM, his sis, brother in law, and the scenery are not entertainment enough. :) I think I am making lunches, and it should be nice!

Sunday stay at home, and try to get our house into some kind of order. With all the late nights, and things going on, we need to dedicate some quality time to our house, and fixing up the garden!

Rainbow- I am going to get a couple tattoos while in the states, I just don't know exactly what one of them is yet. My Tattoo advisor (Lil Sis) has some drawings to show me. . .lol. The other tattoo will be an enhancement of our butterflies. I think we are going to get another butterfly, and some wispy smoke or something. . . I'll keep you posted!

Oh, and I am reading the Stephenie Meyer Vampire books, and they are great! That is what I will read on the train tomorrow. And GM and I got Travis, Tyler & in the future Tommy a fantastic book! It is called "The Dangerous Book For Boys," it sounds scarier than it is. Check the website out, as it is just a fantastic book, everything from building a go kart, to how to play Aussie rules football, to how to play poker, to how to make paper airplanes, to the history of Australia, and the Queen. It really is fantastic! There is one for girls too- with different stuff in it.

Okay, that's it for now! Talk to you soon!

Tuesday and I'm Behind again!

Okay, it's Tuesday and I am slack! Had a good but busy weekend, and had yesterday off with the great GM. Had our 6th wedding anniversary on Sunday Aussie time & Monday USA time. So, took the day off to celebrate!
I left work early on Friday, cause I had to go see the eye Dr. No change to the current prescription, so life is good! Then we went to dinner and I had Lamb's Fry (liver to those of you in America)- Loved it, and needed the iron badly!
Saturday morning, GM worked, I slept in, then got started on the laundry. I think I ended up doing five loads, including towels, blankets, and clothing. . .lol Cleaned the house a bit, did a little bit of Wii, and had a great time.
Sunday we got up early, as we had a bit of running around to do, so we did it, and then were tired, and couldn't be stuffed doing anything else. We were booked int o go to dinner for our anniversary, but ended up cancelling, and having dinner at home, which was better for both of us.

Wii- It really is fun!

Happy Monday!
Well, I am a little sore, but darn happy. GM did not even read my last blog, and we went out and got a Wii on Saturday. We were unable to set it up until after 9:30pm on Saturday night, which got us to bed after 1:30am Sunday morning. . .lol We have been doing the Wii fit exercises, and it does work your core. I love it. granted I have only had time to do around 40-45 minutes total on it, but it has been great fun. And I LOVE that GM and I can watch each other and spur each other on, or actually play a game against each other at the same time. It is very motivational. We also got Mario Kart, but I do not know when we will get to play it yet, as the week days are very busy. I am hoping it will continue to be fabulous! I screwed up on the BMI measuring, and cannot be bothered fixing it, because I have to delete stuff, but after two weeks, I can adjust it. And the Wii Fit is a scale, so it tells you your weight, BMI, and helps you set goals, and then reach your goals. I am way impressed! It also gives you little rewards to help you keep motivated. If you get the chance, by all means give it a go! Lori I think you would love doing this, as much as Turbo jam, it also has a boxing component!
So, tonight, I am going home to make dinner, and lunches for tomorrow, and then try and get in 30 minutes on the Wii. That should put me in bed by 9:30, hopefully before 10pm. Sounds good in theory, but I think I have laundry to do too. . .lol
The weekend was good, Saturday we went out and got the Wii, and then got home,a nd went to the in-laws to help set up beauty bark all where they wanted it in the garden and they gave us lunch. Then home for a quick nap, and back up, showered and back to the in-laws for dinner. I think we got home about 9pm.
Thus being able to start setting up the Wii at 9:30pm. I think I am going to try and make it a goal to get on it at least 30 minutes every night after work. I think I can pull that off. Then maybe I will not need to go to the gym so much, and can cancel that membership. I am not positive yet, but am thinking about it.
Man I lead a boring life. . .lol.
But, I like it that way, and you must too, if you are still reading this. :)
Hope all is well, and I will let you know how I go tonight!
Take care and know you are in my thoughts and prayers!

Wii- Is On My Mind!

Heya! I've been out of action. At a course for the last three days, and pretty busy all around. I completed my MYOB course, which is a bit about accounting. That was really good, and great to learn new stuff! Hopefully it will assist me in future employment- you never know.

Went to dinner at the sister in-laws last night, and had a blast. Dinner was lovely (homemade hamburgers) and then we played Wii sport & Wii Fit. I think it was at least two hours worth. Went through tennis, bowling, golf, soccer headbutting, yoga stuff, and a bunch of balance stuff. It was great fun! I want one. . . We will see. Don't really thing I can justify it at the moment. But man it would be fun.

I am happy that today is Friday, and cannot wait to get home. I get to start the weekend with GM & Ralphy, and that is always a good thing!

We are going to get travel insurance tomorrow, as the trip is getting closer, then we may do some price comparisons on the Wii (fingers crossed). We are also going to help the in-laws (M&D) put down some beauty bark, and some other yard work I think. Then we are having a beautiful lamb roast. But most importantly- we get to sleep in in the morning! ! !

Maybe Sunday we can sit and watch a movie together. Unless we are playing with the Wii (hehehehe). I can hope can't I?

I hope everybody is doing well, and life stays Rosy- blue rosies in some people's case! (Lucky Rainbow) Talk to you soon!
