What have you been doing today?

Have a great day Cookie - you don't really need company to go to these shows as you are usually surrounded by dozens of people at any stand.

[maddy]

Have fun Cookie...and have some bubbles for me!
Day of errands, hospital run, then pick up my processor from the P.O....and dice away merrily...hope it works, bummer if it doesnt.

Lucky you Cookie. I certainly enjoyed the Sydney show.

I'm having a 10 minute break and doing a sudoku puzzle before I tackle some more cleaning out.
I'm getting much better at them now. I'm up to puzzle No 58 and even had to sharpen my pencil.

Warning Michele, Sudoku is very addictive, I play in on my ipad now too.

[astarra]

Have you printed off Uni's hardest sudoku ever ang tried it yet...?? It is hard...

[mcmich]

No, I've only just started doing them and have a book for beginners. I have done a few in the paper and find them quite difficult.

Just as well I don't have an ipad.

Amy – huge congrats re: beep test result!  I need to get cracking on my fitness as the beep test is part of the criteria for a job I will be applying for shortly. Any tips on training?

Astarra – have fun with your mum!  Mums are the best

Cookie – I am jealous!  Make sure you report back and enjoy.

My day today = working until about 5 then heading home, grabbing the quilt and crashing on the lounge for a sci-fi movie marathon complete with home-made pizza and hot chocolate

[obbie]

Can't wait to get home to start the weekend cooking.....

[Thermolicious]

What are the cooking plans obbie?  Also am I insane for dreaming about thermo hot choc while I am at work?    Even the hot choc from the cafe just isn't the same!

[obbie]

Thermlicious, every weekend I do a big cook up.

meals, cakes, biccies, slices, as much as I can..

It's been a day of complaining.

One to Telstra  - we have the phone exchange on our property accessed from a different road.  They fail to tell the poor cleaning people how to get to it.  The man showed up yesterday at our house, drove in the gate panicked, drove onto the grass to turn around and got his car bogged.  It's not that hard to put a note on the service request with the correct address is it???  I don't know how he got is car out, because I was leaving the house when it happened running late for an appointment.  Now I'm left to clean up the muddy mess he left.

Two to our local council, one regarding public play equipment that is falling apart which they are meant to look after.  The safety rails are coming loose and the wood is all splitting leaving sharp bits etc  The other about the drainage on the fire access track which our driveway comes off.  The mud is now ankle deep.

But I feel cleansed now that I've gotten it off my chest.  I'm in the system now so will see what happens.

The rest of today is about catching up on housework, it's been a busy week out and about so nice to be home in my trackies and fluffy slippers.  I think the kids needed a day at home too, as they have both been asleep for hours.

Thanks Thermolicious! What job are you applying for?
I might be able to give you a few tips. What sort of exercise are you doing at the moment?

[astarra]

...Waiting...Waiting...the plane has been delayed yet AGAIN....   
Can't do too much about it tho.

Amy - WAPOL but it won't be until I get my fitness amped up    I am seriously unfit so starting by doing interval training on the treadmill and working my way up to a crossfit session or two!  I need to get 6.1 to pass but my aim is to 10.1 which is pass for a young man.  I want to be as prepared for the academy as humanely possible.
