So, it's August already, and I swear that this year has gone so fast. And I'm finally able to update this via Sonjas computer...I think mine has a virus.

What's going on in my world hey? I don't even know why I write in here anymore, no-one reads it, but I guess it's a good future reference and good to write happenings down.

I'm working at Miss Mauds full time now, in fact today is one of my rare days off. I told my boss that it was ridiculous and that I know we're short of staff but that I CANNOT work three weeks in a row without a day off...so now I have a day off every two weeks. Yippee. SO...working at MIss Mauds, raising the money to go to New Zealand. I'm getting so excited, we got our flight plans yesterday, closer to the date I'll ask for suggestions on what must be seen/done. I know a few of you people out there have been there.

After New Zealand I've started a Suzuki fund. I'm planning to buy a suzuki swift in the new year...I don't think Thistle will last that much longer. I scrubbed the rust stains off her doors today, but now the extra clean white bits just stand out of the dirt. :)  But a new car...how scary!

I'm not sure if I'm doing what I want to be doing at Uni. I'm not that interested in it anymore, but have no idea what else to do...so just keep doing it. It would probably explain my lacklustre results aswell. We'll see how I feel about it in the new year.

Dads continueing his craze for gold detecting, and every night takes out his gold nuggets he found and stares at them, it's quite sweet really. And Wendy is going interstate to work on some archaeology dig and conference, whilst Krista seems to be surviving blizzards in Okahune ( I think) in New Z.

And my birthdays coming up. But ever since Mum died I just dread it and get absolutly no enjoyment out of it anymore. Too close  a date to her death. And lets not forget two years ago when I was called home from shopping on my birthday because Mum was dying right then.

The weather here is glorious at the moment. Raining all the time. I love winter, and it gives a chance for the dams to replenish their supply. Hard to do the washing though.

Hugh's new Gap ad makes me want to melt and I'm making pancakes for dinner.

Yes, pancakes are a meal. At least in this household.

suzuki, new zealand, birthday, hugh, uwa, mum, uni, dead
