News Update :P

Well it seems its been about 2 weeks since my last post, it would appear time slipped my notice. in any case, i go back to school on tuesday...

in other news, mum and i went to melbourne for three days, which was lovely. i bought a skirt, jacket, pair of jeans, and stockings whilst south of the border :P and it was a nice few days away.

Tom and i went on a "break", it lasted less than i expected, but i'm glad its over and we're happy and fine again :)

dad is doing fine since i got back from melb, he had a slip up the night we got back, but has otherwise been relatively ok.

thats about all thats happened, tom bought an iPod Nano today... during our second trip to chatswood. but yeh it was cool.

so nothing much else to report, i shall blog again soonish hopefully :)

Evening entertainments

Well it is now officially the holidays, and its a great feeling knowing i can sleep in the morning without the thought of an alarm waking me up.

quite honestly i think i've started the holidays in a rather self clensing mode...
I told dad this evening that i occasionally smoke, and it was a great relief for me to tell him. Surprisingly he was more ok with it than i thought he would be. So now i'm allowed to smoke, as long as it doesnt become an addiction, which i have no intention of letting it.

so dads fine basically, just working out a balance at the moment i think. So we shall see how things with that goes.

In other news, well there isn't much, apart from that i'm going to Melbourne for 3 days in a week, and that Jessica, my sister in law is about due to pop with her second child. :) and i've lost at scrabble twice to Tom now, and twice in a row, once to Tom and tonight to dad... not a good outlook it would seem :P

So adieu and good night. I shall blog again soon.

Remember, remember, the 5th of November...

Well the funeral was yesterday, and as far as funerals go, it was really nice. Everyone really tried to make it a happy celebration of the wonderful life of an extraordinary woman. I don't have much to say about it, but i did cry, and it was, i think, the beginning of me accepting she is really gone. Dad went to see her in the coffin, i'm sad i didn't have the nerve. not with mum there.

After the funeral, Ken, Megan, Mum, Dad and I went back to the factory, had lunch with Craig, and then Ian my sisters ex-boyfriend from years and years ago dropped in to say hi, and yeh, well that was slightly odd... but then dad and i went home, and i had a driving lesson, which went a lot better than my first. Now i'm booked in for two lessons next week. Dads booking me in for my test soon. Then last night, Tom, Monty, Ross and I went to Chatswood to see "V for Vendetta" which was a really awesome movie. After Ross dropped Tom and I back home, and Tom and i sat with dad watching the end of a Dave Allen video, which was really funny.

Tom stayed over, and today we just loafed around home all day, and i did some textiles work, and things like that. Then tom beat me at scrabble.... wasn't too happy about that, but its all good i suppose... maybe...

in any case, good night, i must go, so i shall blog again soon i hope :)
