an update….

well, I’m still plugging away at the study. Hopefully it’ll all be over in a week! Can’t say how well I’ll do but at least I won’t be stressed anymore!

Had a movie and dinner with Richard and his family last night as his parents have just arrived back from a 3 week trip overseas. That was nice, although all 3 kids are getting rather irritated by their mother at the moment. They can’t work out if it is because she’s more irritating that normal, or if it’s just because they haven’t had to put up with it for 3 weeks! Catherine really isn’t surviving living back at home…and wants to get out of there as soon as she can! So she suggested that the 3 kids plus me, move out and rent a place together! Richard went along with the idea and it seems like it could work. Catherine got all excited about it, I’ve got a few doubts but it is still in the early planning stages yet. Either way, I’m sure i’ll be moving soon due to the rent increase. So Catherine was still quite excited when she got home and started looking on the net at different houses to rent etc and printed off a whole heap. She reminds me a lot of myself actually, gets and idea and goes all gung ho to try and get it to work! Whether this idea will work or not remains to be seen, but hopefully it does, even if it is only 3 of us and not 4.

Health wise I’m surprised at how well I’m doing at the moment. Both Richard and Catherine are sick, and I’m not really! I’ve been around them a bit too, but am still only sneezy. So I’m impressed! I’ll be doing a lot better when all the stress of study is finished!

anyway, back to the study once more! Before Richard picks me up for a roast dinner at his place!

Friday 5 for June 1: Sweet Somethings

This is something I saw on Andrea’s site, so I’m gonna try and do it too! Should be fun and hopefully I can keep up with it!

It’s a bunch of random questions from the site http://www.friday5.org/  that are updated each Friday! How about that eh?

So here goes…..

1. What’s your favorite goody at your favorite bakery?
At the moment I think it would have to be the chocolate mini muffins from the bakery across the road from the bus stop! It’s so hard to resist stopping there!

2. Someone’s visiting from out of town and craves something sweet: Where do you take him or her for an experience he or she can’t get at home?
I think the place would HAVE TO BE Krispy Kreme! (given that KK is only in Melbourne and Sydney at the moment) And I’d try and time it right to get an original doughnut hot “off the press”. I had one like that for the first time at Easter and it was just amazing!

3. What’s your favorite order at your favorite ice creamery?
Hmmmm…..I guess I have 3 favourites….Chocolate, Choc Mint and Triple Swirl/Rainbow.

4. Oh no! You forgot to save room for dessert! What dessert item on the menu will you order anyway, because you can’t resist?
Chocolate Pudding!!!! Or Caramel mud cake.

5. You’ve got a craving for sweets, but it’s so late at night that only the corner convenience store is open. What do you get?
Depends what I’m in the mood. It could be chocolate, chips, icecream or an over-priced pack of tim tams!
