Grey Skies


One week since Black Saturday.

The Melbourne Sky Line.

At a quiet moment in our journey through the city I cried.

Perfect





I didnt feel that nervous. I slept well the night before. The day was beautiful and I have never felt prettier in my life.


I hope everyone experiences a day like this at least once in your lifetime - a day where you're so certain about something, so sure that what you're doing is for the better that the worries of every day life slip away for a little while.


You're in the moment and enjoying yourself and the people around you.


It also doesnt hurt that you're wearing a beautiful dress with your hair and makeup professionally done...


And cake! Any event with cake cant help but be good...

Money and TV

This is what my life revolves around at the moment - Money and TV. Being stressed about money, where it's coming from, where it's going to and how to get a bargain.
And watching too much TV because it's free.

Neverending Weekend

I dont want this weekend to end. I've had too much good food, lots of sleep and tons of sitting on the couch relaxing.
I havent had a lovely weekend like this in a long while and I hope for more.
Lots, lots more...

Meet Zahra


The newest addition to our little family. She needed a new home because the previous owners older dog wasnt handling the new puppy very well.
She's 6 months old and a Beagle x Cavalier Spaniel.
She's trouble - but cute trouble.

Bailey and Zahra have not stopped playing once. The hallway has become a speedway for high-speed chases.
We're all sleepless from 4am toilet stops.

But Bailey now has a little sister to keep him company during the day.
And my heart no longer breaks when I leave in the morning....

Stuff

I havent posted in awhile. Not sure where to start?
What's new in my life? Ummmmmm...

Bailey had an accident, not sure if I mentioned it but he had to have stitches and wear a bandage for two weeks on his back foot.
Have you ever tried to keep a bandage clean on a dog? Talk about a physical impossibility. So he wore a plastic bag over it for the majority of the time. He crinkled when we walked.

Work is sucky at present. I've been getting home grumpy and tired and not so happy. So! I'm hopefully starting a "Copywriting" course in 2 weeks. There's also a writing job going in the Marketing department that I'm going to try and get (it involves lauding the joys of call centres. UGH).

We've stalked Nicolas Cage again because one of the managers saw him coming out of a restaurant in Lygon St (Italian food district of Melbourne). So we rushed up there and wandered around until we stumbled across the end of the world - a trashed street with crashed cars and rubbish floating around and a whole lot of cameras set up.
Once again, that's the closest we got to Mr Cage.

Went to my first collectables fair and in a long, long time last weekend - and spent all my money on some Leia and Padme figures.
The SW nerd is back in action!!

Arguments have been initiated over the wedding. I'm stuck in the middle a lot of the time and have no clue how to extract myself from this position. I just want it to be simple! Straightforward! Is that too much to ask??
Look away now if you're not interested in boring wedding details!

Dress: organised
Bridesmaid dresses: getting made as I type this
Venue: patch of grass booked (PLEASE send out good vibes for good weather)
Invitations: sent (with a lot of arguments)
Hair: at the hands of my Aunt
Honeymoon: booked (2 weeks off! Cook Islands, and a villa only 30 seconds from the beach)
Wedding Bands: one down, one to go
Celebrant: have to ask someone very nicely first
Flowers: ummmmmm
Cake: Yes Please? Someone? Anyone? Preferably chocolate?
Caterer: waiting on new Menu debuting in July
Shoes: why are they all so damn pointy??
Grooms Suit: that might require wrestling Vladdy into a suit shop
Makeup: er...yes...I might need that to hide all my stress pimples

Am I forgetting anything?? My heads too full to think too much more on it!

So yes...life is busy. Must go now and double check my list - getting panic stricken at the thought of missing something!!
