Monday 20th September

And I thought I was going to be able to put my feet up and enjoy the holidays....like that's going to happen!!!

Saturday was down the gym at 8.00am. Then ended up cleaning the house.

Yesterday we were up early so that we could get to the Royal Melbourne Show before the crowds. Think that the crowds had the same idea as us....we ended up sitting in a huge line of traffic, so we ditched the car and jumped on a tram!! Then the queue was about a kilometre long to get into the showgrounds. We finally left the place at about 5.30pm and decided to walk back to the car as Nick and I didn't think that it was too far away. Strange how the mind plays silly tricks on us. We eventually made it back to the car, tired, with sore feet, a whingy kid, lots of showbags and the need for a big glass of JD & Coke!!! Never again I say.....every year I seem to say this!!

Here's a photo of Alana and her cousin with their tattoos!! Now Alana has one just like her Mummy!



We also had a portrait done of Alana as well. The artist did an okay job, although she does look older in the picture that what she actually is.



Have had the gas man out today to look at the oven. As we feared, it's going to cost us more to get it fixed than it's worth so we're going to look for one of those little mini ovens to tide us over until we decide about the kitchen and what we want.

What a day it was today. Actually got to put my shorts on and sit in the sun reading my book. And it's going to stay that way for the next couple of days as well. Here's to the start of my tan!!

Took Alana to the Doctor today....a much better doctor I might add. He had a good look in her ears and they are both very infected, which is probably why she ignores us half the time!! So she now has something for the bronchitis and something for the ears. He reckons that this will definitely clear it all up!! We shall see!!

Correction, if Alana can't hear us, then she can't be ignoring us.

"Like that's going to happen". Please clarify?

Hey Babe - great to talk to you the other night/morning! Work is a bit quieter today so I've had time to think about the wedding this time! Been as much use as a chocolate teapot! Anyway, take care of yourself and speak to you soon! xxx
