Northern Ireland here I come!!!

Well tomorrow (after I lead 2 church services) i will be getting on a plane to IRELAND!!

I am so excited to be on holidays, I cant believe it is finally here!!!! So i have spent the morning cleaning the house and packing...i think i am almost there!

Its been a busy week trying to get things organsised for being away for 2 weeks..although i had a GREAT day off on thursday.

Tea 2 at hornsby has a cafe, with comfy chairs and sunshine! so i had breakfast there and read some Harry Potter. Its weird the whole harry potter thing passed my by, mainly because i read one late at night and it had a werewolf in and i got scared!
But last week Robyn Alicia and I went and saw the Half blood prince and i really enjoyed it and decided to read all the books, so i went and bought them from Big W. I am up to number 4 and am taking the rest of them on the plane(s).

After breakfast I went and hung out with Bec and Jo and we made candles! yay! it was lovely to see them (and Aston) and i got to tick making candles off my list of things to do before i'm 30.

I then went to Ashfield and had dumplings with Marian...what a lovely full day.
The only thing that marred the day was my landlord ringing to tell me i hadnt paid my rent...but he is an idiot because it gets direct debited every month!! IDIOT!

Anyhoo Netball this afternoon and then church then AWAY!!!!!!! WOOT!!!!!

6 days...

WEll there are 6 days til i go to Belfast but sadly i am off work today sick.

Last night a blood vessel burst in my eye and it just topped of a tiring day and so this morning i am off to the Doctors and hoping to feel chipper before i go

and now max just threw up on the carpet...looking forward to cleaning that up

monday, monday

Well i have a new aged care client this morning, he is french! so we will see how that goes..i will dredge up some yr 9 french and give it a burl.

Yesterday was a big sunday, lead a couple of services went out for lunch and arvo tea with some people from church and also managed to pick up my washing and buy cat food for max, who is being very cute chasing a ball right now.he was not so cute at 4am when he wanted breakfast...

i think i have sunday tired hangover on mondays and its no way to start the week, although its not really the start of my week, its more like a tuesday or wednesday. so its time to suck up the tiredness and pray for energy and get on with the week.

only 13 days til Ireland and my mum and friends Alicia and Robyn are coming to stay this week... that should be fun!

feeling better!

Well I had a good day today.

WE had a farewell lunch for a girl from church who is gallivanting across America for 2 months. it was fun the rain held off so we had a BBQ in the backyard and then ice cream cake for dessert!

And even more excitingly her boyfriend fixed my BIKE!!!!! the brakes work!!!! now i can go cycling and not have to pay lots of money!!! i even put the lights on the front and back now i can ride at night! all i need now is a basket so i can carry things!

Now i am just about to go out to dinner with Catherine in Manly before a BIG day of church tomorrow :)

Crud...

Problems posting!

WEll hello world!

its been quite a while.... i thought for a moment there my blogging days were over...but then i just couldnt bring myself to stop!

Although there have been a few glitches...i couldnt log into blogger for a while and then i was just too grumpy for a while to blog without being mean.

So i'm back.

and still a bit grumpy....

BUT there are lots of fun things coming up...

I go to Belfast in less than 3 weeks for my lovely friend Sarah's wedding. I am really excited and cant wait!

I have decided to do something about the fact that i do no exercise and eat to much. This is good! the first thing is that i am going to buy a bike tomorrow so i can go bike riding around the lovely beaches.

Less excitingly is that i need to keep looking for a job for next year :( and it looks like it will be another long and painful process. I know there is no perfect job but one thats at least full time??? I must pray for that!!!

THere has been lots going on at church, PTC, Scripture, Training groups, services etc so life keeps on going.

Maybe you can give me some topics to rant about on this blog oh interweb?

Oh and i must blog about the things that i have done on my list of things to do before i am 30!!!
