Its my Saturday night..although technically its a Monday but you get my drift. Husband goes back to work Wednesday Morning. I’m okay with it weekends, holidays they all have to end sometime. There is no point being glum so here we are red wine on the side burgers in the pan it’s as Saturday night as it gets.
The real weekend however the two days just past were just as awesome family came, created havoc chaos mess and then left. Loved it. As an only child I never got that and being an only child whose parents had left all their family behind in NZ I ached for it. My parents did the best they could in fact they did more than that to give me some of that sending back to NZ each school holidays so I could get some sense of it but in the between times I would hang out with my Darwin friends whose family were either traditional owners or had been long time residents and so family was never short of..I basked in the rivalry the ribbing and the jabbing that came with all that chaos and so I am happy that my boys can have a slice of what I wanted but only ever dreamed of.
So having said that the ‘weekend’ both of them have been and almost gone just like this year and it being the first week of August and these are the few things running through my head.
1. My baby girl Josie {my 13 year old poodle my baby before babies} is to have an eye removed tomorrow…you can make all the jokes you like husband has but I’m distraught..getting old is damn shitty..human or animal.
2. We brought a basketball hoop and so me and the boys have been playing some one and one..its the only time they think I’m cool, well except when I let them have ice cream for dinner.
3. Husband tonight not only brought me wine he brought me some liquorice ..he knows the way to my heart.
4. It never gets any easier when someone asks how far along I am.
5. Joined twitter today..I’m not overly sold…we shall see because it’s what I said about facebook but look at me now..when facebook went offline for those eight minutes last month I thought a meteor had hit and the world was ending..
6. How to have sex with your ipad..yes thats right…all I’m thinking is oh my god how does one clean it..
7. A Byron Bay wedding here.
8. He says it was the weirdest day yet here.
9. A super sweet thermomix cover because I know lots of you have them here.
10. I don’t condone violence but I was so disappointed at Orlando’s efforts the other night when someone had the opportunity to swipe Bieber good and proper..here.
