Week 2

4 to go, not that I’m counting or anything ;) Friday evening Krisa and I were going to go with Mai and crew into Silk Road for drinks. As we are on a diet we decided it probably wasn’t a good idea to go and drink so we passed up that and instead went to watch movies at Eastland. We saw Whip It which was pretty funny. There were heaps of teeny boppers in the cinema and they were talking a bit through the movie. It was annoying but then I remember back to when I was a TB and doing the same stuff so I could deal with it.

Saturday I did the usual, laundry and netball .. we lost, but good fun. We played inside and it was so stuffy and sweaty, at least the girls in this team were nice. In the evening I hung out at home watching TV and movies.

Today Kelly came over around lunch time for a couple of hours. She is going to stay at my house and look after Ninja while Krisa and I are in Perth next weekend. At around 2 my mum came and we went to Eastland to watch Fame. I enjoyed it, I like Kherrington!

Krisa and I are currently on day 5 of the kick start soup diet, not to lose weight, but to get us into a good eating pattern. My problem is portion size, food is so yummy I just keep eating until I get a belly ache. I didn’t like the soup so I have made my vegies into a salad instead, same principle though. Tuesday is the last day :)

Hi

Bay you know I miss you, I just wanna kiss you, but I can’t right now so bay kiss me thru da phone, see you later on ..

1 week down, 5 to go

Took Dhillon and Raj to the airport last Monday for their flights to India. I miss him, but he’s been online almost every day for a few minutes so it’s ok. Sounds like he’s having a great time and being spoiled to death by his family.

Wednesday I was lucky enough to catch a cold which turned out to be pretty bad. Woke up on Thursday morning and could not bring myself to get to work. Ended up having Friday off as well, spent time curled up on the couch watching TV, coughing and blowing out about 50 litres of snot.

Saturday I went to watch the girls play netball, then Krisa came to my house to get ready to go to Lucy’s engagement. Lovely Krisa had dropped past OMG Treats on the way to netball so had some of Sheryl’s Cupcakes ( www.cupcakecentral.com.au ) to snack on while getting ready. Drove the hour to get to Lucy’s new house in Kings Park. She was late to her own party, typical. There was heaps of food and drink and she looked like she was having a great time with her hubby to be. We left at 9 for the long drive home.

Sunday I relaxed most of the day, but did go for an hour walk in the afternoon. Lucky me I found $20 on the street! 10 days left till Krisa and my Perth holiday. Mel has made up an itinery for us so I think it will be a fun filled weekend!

Sick

I’m sick .. perhaps love sick? Hehe nah, really sick. I have a painful golf ball in my throat, fever, headache, cough. Enough to take 2 days off work, which I don’t do unless I’m reeeally feeling terrible.

Stellar Awards Night

Friday evening I didn’t have to pick up Krisa as she is visiting lover-boy in Sydney .. first time in a few weeks! I stayed in that night, watched some Better Homes and Gardens and then some of the TV series I have been downloading lately.

Saturday morning I woke up and did my laundry like usual the played netball in the afternoon. We won for the first time this season, only cause the other team were really bad. A win is a win though :D I play defence and was in wing defence for the last half of the game. The girl I played on in the 3rd quarter had obviously never had someone defend her before as she was getting pissy that I was getting in the way of where she wanted to run. She would run out to get a pass, and I would let her, then stand in the way of where she wanted to run .. she would then run forwards, obviously bashing into me and I guess that was what was upsetting her, along with the fact they were losing. She got so angry she started body shoving me and then yelled out ‘we’re not playing body on body.’ I just gave her a look and said ‘do you think I am going to just let you get the ball and not defend you?’ .. no reply to that. She got so angry she swapped positions in the final quarter. Can’t wait to play them again!

Saturday evening was Dhillon’s work (my old work) function, Awards Night. It was help at the Medallion Club at Etihad Stadium. We arrived at 6.30 on the dot to a line of waiters holding trays of drinks. Entree was served as finger food, samosas and spring rolls. Dinner was either chicken or lamb followed by a platter of mixed desserts. There was then lots of dancing and drinking. It was a good night although I think the venue for last years was much nicer. Great to see my old work buddies too.

Today we slept in till early afternoon and then went to Brand Smart in Nunawading so Dhillon could buy some new shoes. He picked some out from Footlocker, then we dropped by Forest Hill to get some food. We went into Myer and he also found some pyjamas on sale so grabbed them up too. Tomorrow morning he is off to India for 6 weeks :( hopefully I can keep busy enough not to miss him too much, November 22 I am waiting for you!

Bloggers Meet

Got some time to write an entry before I head off to combat class at gym. Friday after work I went to pick up Krisa from work at 5pm. I waited and waited .. she didn’t come out of the building. It got to 10 past 5 so I called her. Where was she? 2 minutes from her house, she got a lift home .. d’oh. I went to pick her up and we drove over to Chadstone for dinner at Nudle. We had a quick wander through the new section of the centre before going into AMF for her bowling fundraiser night. We played 3 games and I won a little trophy for ‘almost getting 100’ hehe.

Saturday, Krisa, Dhillon and I went into the city to go to the Dali exhibition at the gallery. When we got there at 2.30 the line was pretty long so we went shopping and had dinner. We came back around 5.30 and the line was still rather long. While I was waiting for Krisa to go to the bathroom, I overheard a couple talking about how they had lined up for 3 hours, only to spend an hour and a half in the exhibition itself. After hearing that we decided to give it a miss and head home. Krisa tried to go again later in the evening, but there were ever more people then so unfortunately she missed out.

Sunday morning daylight savings started. Ninja always wakes me up at 7am on the weekends, Sunday she woke me up at 7.55, so I went back to sleep assuming my clock was correct .. it wasn’t .. and I had to be somewhere at midday. I got up at 11 and had a rushed shower and dressing and jumped into the car and onto the Eastlink to get to Krisa’s house. Turns out I got there at 12, but I didn’t have to rush as Trang and Mai were running late as well.

Krisa and I walked up to the Dingley market with Jasper, arriving around 1. Luckily we got there then as Sheryl was almost sold out of cupcakes! We selected our sweet and Sheryl put them aside for us while we grabbed a hot dog. The girls then turned up then so we had a chat and a wander around the market. By this time it was 2-ish so we went for a late lunch at Glen Waverley before heading home. Hoefully we can make out meet more often, however that means Krisa and I would have to head west-ward sometimes :O
