*waves* Part 2
I know it's been ages since I last posted. What else is new? As I'm doing this from Dreamwidth, I will gradually familiarise myself with it and use this as my main journal from now on. At the moment I still have a paid account with LJ; once that comes up for renewal, I will change to having a paid account here.
Thanks to silver_trails to pointing me in the right direction, I am transferring all my info from LJ to Dreamwidth so that, should something happen with LJ (and, let's face it, it's not the same as it used to be before it was taken over), I have everything here.
Hope everyone had a great Christmas. As always, it was quiet for us, with Christmas held at my house. Now that it's the new year, time to take the tree down.
Liam has officially finished secondary school; he passed his VCE and is now waiting to hear if he has been successful in getting into the course he wants to do, namely IT - Games Development. First offers come out 18 January, so he still has another three weeks to wait.
He's also finished with choir after 10 1/2 years; the Christmas concert was his final 'hurrah'. I had already stepped down from the committee in June, and with Liam having made his licence, there was no need for me to go down there every week, but I stayed involved by continuing on with doing the newsletters, performance memos and concert programmes until the end of the year. Whether Liam will continue to help out the choir in some way, or join an adult choir, I don't know (not that he knows, either). We'll wait and see.
Apart from that, life has been the same old, same old. Still doing cross-stitch, still delivering catalogues, still reading (and listening to) books, and wishing that it was winter again (I loathe summer and can't wait for it to be over).
January, once again, is tennis month in Australia. Today Hopman Cup and Brisbane International kick off; there's the tournament in Hobart, a not-so-serious tournament in Adelaide, Sydney International, Kooyong Classic, not to mention the Australian Open. Plus there's a tournament 'across the pond' in Auckland. Along with football/soccer (depending what you call it where you're from), my sport watching is covered for the month. I don't play sport, but I do enjoy watching it.
That's it for now. I will try and make a concerted effort to post more :)
Edit: Forgot to mention - I am 'inwe_saralonde' on Dreamwidth as well as on LJ. I figured it was easier to keep things the same.
