Stuff

HEAPS of this and that's have happened in the past fortnight.. I've worked 6 shifts at my new job in this period & it's pretty awesome:D Free food, drink and 30 minute breaks! My workmates rock and the food's pretty healthy too. The only downer is that my skin reacts to the cleaning detergents and is now all dry and itchy *eww* but i'm learning to take some precautionary measures so it should be all good:) I've closed shop a few times and got to take any leftover sandwiches, salads, etc home which the value in itself, overpays me about 10 times.

I've caught up with a few buddies, namely Jan, Ellen and May, in that order. The movie marathon with Jan was a disaster -the movies x and y turned out to be bombs so we had to rent Madagascar to make up for it! But catching up with her is always great. I haven't seen Ellen for about half a year so more catchups are in order, and May? well, a day with her is always a day well spent. I don't know how she does it but she never seems to age- even when tiredness clamps to her & pretty much knocks her out; no wonder ppl think we're sisters rather than the aunt-niece duo we're meant to be:P She took me shopping around QVB and made some nifty purchases -considering it's jingle season and all^^

Crookshanks is looking good. A vet trip is lined up for Friday and i've introduced him to most of the fellowship. The kids love him so much that part of the reason I'm keeping him is for them. But he's pretty spoilt *guilty look* and i'm trying hard to discipline him -sometimes it looks like it's working- most of the time it's hopeless-_-'
So my holidays have been pretty busy so far and this week is full to bursting. Work again tmrw, pancakes with Smee on Wed, work again Thur and the vet thing Friday. I'm not entirely sure what Saturday is for -maybe a massage? hehe, and Sunday is fellowship! Not to mention I have under a month to plan where I want to go for my precious 3 week christmas break,, May wants to go up north to Brissy but nothing's researched at this point and it's driving me loopy! then right after that road trip with her, Barbara is planning to take me down to Kosciusko ~nice.. I've always fancied mountain climbing.. and road trips never lose their appeal:) Anyway, it looks to be a nicely hectic summer.
And Harry Potter is out in 3 days! & Narnia soon after!! Yesterday is also a day worth recording. I've officially tagged it 'gift day' - by virtue of the fact that so many gifts were exchanged here and there. I gave some gifts as well as receiving one. The happy feelings that accompanied both phases were pretty much the same and I still can't get over how this person reacted this way to x present or how great it felt to receive a wonderful pressie out of the blue. God being the master of gift exchange, must wonder why we deny ourselves such a healthy practice so often.
