'Time flies when you're having fun' so the saying goes......it hardly seems any time since Bill, Sue & I celebrated our 180th birthday and yet its now 2 years on....which reminds me I better keep on 'scrapping' as I'm only up to 1983 in my life and I really want to re-do Mums albums to preserve them to....so there's another 28 years of photos and memorabilia. Yesterday wasn't one of my more memorable birthdays....'twas one of those days where whatever can go wrong did (it started when I got on the scales and found I'd put on weight after exercising religiously all week and cutting back on my food intake and eating healthy - I am convinced I must have absolutley zilch metabolism - I'm not aiming to be the slim trim person I was 25 years ago....just to feel comfortable in my clothes) got in my new little car to go out, turned the key and nothing! is that why the car came with free 3 year 24/7 roadside assistance? a lovely young man from RACQ came out and charged up the battery and told us to go back to the dealer and get them to check the battery as it may be a faulty battery and also check the electrical system in case there's something which is not shutting off and draining the battery. Finally got to have lunch at 2pm - with my free birthday voucher from Sharks. Bill had a wonderful day.......he won again for Sharks Punters Club (3rd week in a row)and some for himself too. On checking the phone when I got home I had several singing greetings .....hadn't realised how tuneful my family and friends were!! It wasn't all bad, I did get to have long chats with my Precious One, my Cheeky Possum and my Princess....pleasing to know Rob's knee operation went OK.
Got up this morning and decided today will be a better day.....had a delicious breakfast at Crown Plaza in the Revolving restaurant, the views are fantastic but possibly not as spectacular as from Q1,it is lovely sitting back relaxing and watching the world turn! Leeanne made my birthday present from the family, the gorgeous bracelet pictured here.......how special is that.....my photography doesn't do it justice. Courtney also made me feel very loved by being at breakfast after a 'big night out' and we all know how Courtney loves her sleep.
Tomorrow we have the little fairy for the day and we're heading off to Harbour Town to meet Amy whom I worked with and meet her gorgeous little boy Parker. I'm gonna miss Caiti when she goes to school next year....Mondays just won't be the same.
27 more sleeps Lilly! Till next time....take care
