Quick update ....

8 November 2006

Very quick post this morning......
* I have finally planted my seedling..... onbviously with the water restrictions at the moment...I plated them all in a couple of clumps..... less water required...but I should still get some nice colour...thats if the snails dont get them.
*The FK Elite team have been announced .. .. what wondefully talented girls...congratutlations.
* Poor Chris left Idol on Monday night..... I think Dean should have gone based on voice...but obviously Dean has a huge fan base with all the teeny boppers.....so he was safe again. I still have my heart set on gorgeous little Jess.
*I had no luck with the Melb. cup yesterday .... I had a little dibble on Zipping....who I picked by an extremely complex method...... of shutting my eyes and dropping my index finger onto the sweeps list...... and obviously my finger was a little of target.
* I have my online class with KIM today...and Im actually prepared....
* I still havent set foot in that scraproom.....I have even more to do now....and even less time to do it.
*We have family coming to stay for the weekend.... My Brother , SIL and 4 kids...and Im wildly excited....and cant wait..... I adore these guys!
*Briony has a friend coming to stay as well.....it just worked that way ...the more the merrier.
*Brionys basketball began their season last night .... they lost by a considerable amount .... Briony feels the teams are quite un-even....and the team they played last night was a team of very experianced girls...whereas her team had a few that had played before....and three girls who were haivng their first introduction to the game. I explained to her that anyone can win a game of Basketball....but not everyone could take three girls...make them feel comfortable...teach them how to play and enjoy the game .... she agreed wholeheartedly and related the tale of a girl from last season who joined and was so nervous she didnt want to set foot on the court..and now has signed up for another season this year....... and I remember being very proud at the end of last season when this girls mother ...personally thanked Briony for making such a difference...for taking the time to include her DD and encourage her.
* Lots of get well vibes and good luck to Ann..... a friends sister who is recovering from surgery.....you are in my thoughts.
* Lots of love and wishes to Lucy too ...you know you are in my thoughts every minute of every day.... as is your family.
*Brent and Alex hit their six month anniversary yesterday .... I honestly though it may have been longer...I seriously cant remeber the time she wasnt around ...they celebrated by going out to dinner (at Macca's would you beleive..lol)
Well thats it for this morning...I was going to upload a piccie... but Mr Blogger is unfair....
Have a great day...
