Ahh Sunday again. I love Sundays but cripes they go fast. I spent the morning playing in the garden and put some seedlings into punnets. Hopefully they all come up. The veggie patch is doing well so far and I noticed 3 little tomatoes on the vine, plus a small cauliflower forming.
We moved all my art stuff into the garage today, so now most of it is set up and in the one place rather than spread through the house. Well there is still some in the house, but the large majority is set up in a useable way in the garage.
And we had a picnic lunch down near the jetty. It was a lovely sunny day and the view was beautiful as always, however, there was a rather fresh cool wind blowing. Cool enough we ended up coming back inside after an hour to warm up again.
Did a little painting in the afternoon, then Gav Lisa n Xavier came over for dinner. Nick Jess n Tiara were heading out elsewhere for dinner so we'll hopefully catch up with them again soon. Well that's about it from me for today.
Well we'd planned to go for a picnic to Coochiemudlo Island today, but it poured rain last night and would have been very wet under foot. We decided to postpone it for another weekend.
Had a phone call from Gav to see how we felt about coming over to watch Xavier while they did some sorting out and cleaning up at their place. So we wandered over there for a few hours. He's such a cutie patootie. Very smiley and lots of fun.
Gav had caught a couple of snapper earlier in the week, so he cooked up some of that for lunch. Delicious!
Came home, chilled out in front of a movie then decided to head out for dinner. We had dinner at the Thai restaurant in Wellington Point ~ scrumptious! We then joined some of the boys and their mates at the first of the farewell get together's for Pommy Josh (one of Jon's best mates) as he's heading back to London on Friday. Was a good night.
Oops, today was Richie's (my brother in law) birthday and I forgot to contact him. Must do that.
Went out and about for a little while this morning, grabbed a few groceries, had a quick visit to Bunnings, came home and watched a movie in the afternoon.
Put together a few cocktail type sticks, along with some cheese sticks and little salami sticks and headed off to Loraine's farewell. It was held at her friend Ann's place in Wynnum. Had a fantastic night! Lots of laughing and lots of fun. Got home just before midnight.
Today's pic is of a painting stuff up before it was painted over.
Today was the first of my days off. Went and saw Loraine mid morning and picked up a table she was giving me. Was nice to spend a little time with her. I also gave her a gorgeously soft scarf that I made as a going away gift. We hope to catch up with her in August when we go to Tassy.
Pottered around and didn't do much in the afternoon. Kath dropped in for a quick cuppa so was nice to see her.
Had an early night.
I've added yet another Sydney pic ~ this guy on the left obviously likes great cars too!
Finished some more packing at work and we're all set for tomorrow's move. I'm off on management suggested stress leave for the next two days, so I'll not be there for this part of our move.
Saw Em's friend Zoe this afternoon, she's lovely as well as helpful. Had a quiet evening. Can't remember what else happened here. Think I was feeling pretty crappy that day so didn't do a great deal.
Tuesday. What happened? Hmm. We did some more packing for the move. Actually, we did quite a lot of packing. Enough that there won't be heaps to do tomorrow.
Boss spoke with me this afternoon, apparently concerned about my stress levels. Has suggested having a little time off and doing some short days for a couple of weeks when I come back.
Had to have my blood pressure checked and it was again quite high. So another change of medication and fingers crossed! Didn't feel up to going to pottery, so bailed on that for the night and will go next Tuesday for the make up class.
Today's pic is another one taken in Sydney.
Hmm I'm now almost a week behind! And my memory is crappy, so these catch up posts may be a little shorter than usual.
Monday was the first day at work without my co-worker. My how quiet it was! I'll miss her greatly. Did some catching up with the boss on her return after a few weeks off work and looked at what was left to be done for the remainder of our move.
Left work a little early to have some kinesiology. I can't remember what else happened that day, so this is it for now.
