Christmas was wonderful, its been a few years since we had a child in the house on Christmas morning ....having Rob, Shell and my Princess Lilly here made for a very memorable time - now I need to find time to scrapbook the memories.....had an enjoyable though very wet day at Movie World and not just from the Wild West ride, it was the wettest day of the holidays but it didn't dampen our enthusiasm or fun. Our love of cricket has taken us to the Gabba three times this summer ....we witnessed some great innings and wins by the Aussies, Cameron Whites century in the one dayer against Pakistan was brilliant, as was Ricky Pontings hundred last Sunday against the Windies. Once again we were spoilt at Christmas and received tickets to Le Grande Cirque.....absolutely awesome, loved it.
And they said it wouldn't last......Bill & I celebrated our silver wedding anniversay with a trip to Darwin....the weather was very hot and steamy, can't believe I didn't shed kilos with all the perspiring I did! The Katherine Gorge was all I had imagined and more.....and we had a wonderful cruise until a tropical storm suddenly appeared, the blue skies suddenly went dark, wind gusts blowing the heavy rain straight at us.....we got thoroughly soaked - yes even wetter than day at Movie World! my socks and sneakers were waterlogged, even my underwear was wringing wet and we had to sit 4 hours in the bus back to Darwin.....even a dinner stop at Adelaide River didn't help dry us out.....Barrumundi was on the menu, and those who know me well know I am not a fish eater, however I tried the Barra and must admit I thoroughly enjoyed it....even pinched an extra half piece off Bills plate - not really he being the wonderful hubby he is gave it to me....Its taken almost a year to set up but my Pandora style jewellery business is starting to take off....had lots of internet sales www.oztion.com.au/shop/RV-Designs.aspx and next Friday have the first Party booking...
My life was blessed late November when I met Juni - this zany, enthusiastic lady has a heart of gold, gives all and expects nothing .... on Friday came round and revamped our little front garden.....complete with a birdbath from her own backyard.....amazing how you just click with some people.
Had planned to go down to Tweed Heads today but its overcast and raining....a good lazy Sunday for staying home .....Big Fish -Big Fish Games Homepage have some great new games out, might have to try them....love being able to play them for an hour FREE.....I have bought quite a number of them.....
Yes, football is back.....and the mighty Dogs had a win over Brisbane at Canberra last Sunday....I'm looking forward to this season......maybe 2010 will be our year...........GO DOGGIES.....
Till next time......
