I've just rediscovered frosty mugs too. Now they come in a variety of bright colours. Great for drinks for a sore throat!!

These are the nice flowers Randall bought me :)
Well congratulations Donna and Chris on the birth of Millicent Kathleen Langeluddecke. It's great to hear all are doing well and have made it home safe and sound.

Well i don't have anything exciting to report this week. I apparently still have tonsilitis (and suspected quinsy) so i had some of last week off and i'm not back at work until wednesday. As my mother would say, i don't do things by halves. So just trying to relax and eat soft and cold things (but i'm not allowed icecream, booo hisss). Last weekend I just relaxed, I had Randall to keep me company and look after me, he even bought me flowers! It was a difficult weekend for me (was meant to be my wedding) but got through it and i'm so glad it's over! Now i look forward to the future.

Well it hasn't been that long since my last post so I don't have too many exciting things to report. Wednesday Randall and I went to see Jimeoin and Bob Franklin in the cooking show which was highly amusing. Thursday I went and saw Sean and Leanne. It's always good to catch up with them. I love this photo Leanne sent through, I just couldn't resist putting it up! Friday night as a spur of the moment thing we went to see Marmalade Circus. They are a 10 piece jazz band and were excellent, i highly recommend them.
Saturday I visited Nanny and Grandpa. They are both well. I ended up with a lute and harp cd from grandpa and some beads from Nan. I am going to go out again sometime and fix some of nans jewellery as they clasps are so small she is having trouble putting them on. So I should be able to help with that. I also went and saw Sheree and Jacinta who are also doing well. Jacinta just sleeps at this stage but all seem well and happy. Today is just study and normal housey stuff, as well as watching the commonwealth games on telly. We have our first netball game for the season tonight, back into A/B grade (even though we didn't make the finals in C grade?!?!).

I look forward to hearing some critter news! Mum and Dad I hope you had/have fun in Singapore!

Well due to popular demand here is an update on Sydney!! As you can see, even though I had tonsilitis and Randall had food poisoning, we did get out and about and see some of Sydney.

We left Adelaide at 6am on Friday, yes we weren't just awake, we were on a plane! Darius let us in the apartment and headed off to work, and we headed into the city. We wandered around and went up the Centrepoint tower. It was great views from up there, and we took way too many photos. Friday evening we met Darius and Kristi in town and had drink at Industrie and had some very nice Thai food for tea.

Saturday I wasn't feeling real well so first point of call was the docs. Some antibiotics later we had brekkie at a cafe, and a relaxing day at Darius and Kristis. We also managed to catch up with Bev who was 'studying'. Saturday night we headed to The Basement for dinner and to see Mantaza. They were fantastic, i highly recommend them! Aside from the food poisoning there, it was a great night. So that ruled most of Sunday out, but we did manage a few games of Scrabble. Wood and Stone pizza made for a great dinner and an early night was had by all.

Monday Randall and I were both feeling a bit better, so braved the city one more time and headed to the bridge. We went up the pylon lookout which gave fantastic views. After that and some shopping we headed to the Nags head to meet up with Donna and Chris. Still no sign of critter unfortunately, although Donna does like to torment the poor kid, alas i'm out of the betting race though. For dinner Darius, Kristi, Randall and I headed to Badde Manners which was some amazing vegetarian food, i've never had such good beans!

So we were back on a plane this morning (yes another stupid hour of the morning) and I spent the whole day at work. Aside from thinking Sydney is jinxed we had a great time.

Trust me

I'm in Syndey for a nice holiday, and I get tonsilitis (so the doctor tell me!). I had a sore throat when i left Adelaide but it kept getting worse so I went to the doc today. Antibiotics and infusions with ginger, lime, honey and peppermint from Kristi will hopefully help! Syndey is jinxed i'm sure, I was sick last time I came with cold and it turned into bronchitis. Hmmmm

Well another exciting week passes us by. This week Renee and James happily announced their engagement! It was in the 'tiser on Saturday for those of you who got the paper. With two exciting things happening in two weeks, they say good things come in 3s.... Chris and Donna it must be your turn!! Bring on the critter!!

Now to the rest of my week... I had taekwondo, study and all the normal things during the week. I also got to see Sean, Leanne, Jasmine and Tamika, and guys if you're reading this, thanks again for that roast, it was fantastic! The girls were well, and gorgeous as per normal. It's funny watching them when they are eating their solids, all they do is stare at me! Jazzy now has turning from her back to her front downpat, and it wouldn't surprise me if she starts crawling soon, so looks so close!

Friday night I went and saw Sheree, Alex and Jacinta. All were very well and the family looked very happy. Jacinta is tiny and I was happy I could get a cuddle. She is extremely good and spending most of her time sleeping. Saturday Renee and I went to a bead making course. We spent 6 hours over a gas bottle with a hot head melting glass rods and turning them into beads. It was fascinating, and I am looking forward to collecting my beads on Thursday. We would like to buy all the equipment, but at the cost of it we might have to wait a while! Saturday night Randall and I went to the Oxford for an Ox burger of course, then off to the Zoo for Going Ape. We got to see Mickey D, Akmal, Big Al and Fiona O'Loughlan. All very amusing and the lions growling in the background just added to the atmosphere.

Today I have been attempting to study, I forgot how hard it was to sit and read a textbook, and note it. But I'll get there. I also got a nice phonecall from Mum and Dad (thanks again! I needed the distraction =p), and I called Darius, so it's been a good week.

I am looking forward to a short week this week, and heading to Sydney Friday morning. DnK already have a few things planned for us which is great! I am really looking forward to seeing them. And yes Mum and Dad, I promise I'll take photos and post them on my blog! So hopefully next post will be more interesting with some pictures!
