last week
right, what did i do. Darryl arrived back from egypt baring presents (always a good thing!). I went and collected him from the airport and then dropped him at the station and he went straight to work.
Cant remember what we did for most of last week. I went to the gym most days, hmmmmmmm will have to check with Darryl. oh actually thats right, our wedding reception place fell through the same time we start getting calls chasing us for dates, invites etc etc. So was a pretty stressful week. darryl moved the computer into the loungeroom so i could surf the net at night and try and find somewhere else.
The idea ended up coming from Marie, my sister in law whos mate Beth is getting married at the pasadena on pittwater. After loads of back and fro im really happy and even though its a bit more we are now getting married right on the water and i will come in via boat to the ceremony.
I dont know if a priest will wed us yet as mum and dad wont call him and ive tried with no answer so may just get a celebrant. Im not going to stress out about it and i cant organise a priest from over here so with no help in this department will have to be a celebrant. As long as we get married though and we get to choose our own words i dont care if Elvis marries us!!!
Saturday i went into town by myself and went to a big wedding shop called confetti. It has everything you could want for a wedding and i bought quite a bit, so happy about that. Still having a headache over the invitations, but if i dont get what i want in the next few days will just order some online.
sat night the babysitter came and we went to the good old walkabout in shepherds bush. Quite a few mates turned up and we drank snakebites, sambucca and tequila and air guitared to all our old favourites. They had a really good coverband and my legs were killing me the next day from all the dancing (head banging/jumping up and down to the music, oh and daggy dancing, which is just sooooooo funny when you are drunk, but silly when you are sober)
was gutted when the lights came on and they said it was closing time :(. It shut at 12am. can you believe it. too bloody early and i got pulled home kicking and screaming!! no not really, after trying to talk doc into coming with me to find somewhere open we went home via the kebab shop.
I woke up with the sorest head ever, had some panadol and went back to bed. got up a few hours later as the phone kept ringing and chatted for an hour or so to various lovely friends(and brother) wishing me a happy birthday. We were going to go for a picnic but it was overcast and raining so we went out to a nice restaurant for lunch and had a look around the shops.
yesterday had to go get my root canal finished (yes just what you want to do on a monday after a big weekend) and when i got home both of my boys had a nap while i chatted on the phone to my friend marika. she is goign for a job here and so had to help her out with what to say in the interview etc, and make anzac biscuits.
going out tonight for drinks to celebrate as JO and Jodi are back in town!!
