The Green Smoothies are going well. Today was apple, bluberries and baby spinach. Very yum, but a very weird colour, murky browny green, still technically green though.

Friday Craft is off tomorrow because Dave and I*, are going away for the weekend to the Southern Highlands. Should be lovely.
*And about 30 other sales staff and partners.

I will leave you with a short clip of the boys and Houdini. Have a great weekend.

Sigh of relief...........

After a heart to heart with Dave last night I have decided to drop back to part-time at Uni. The semester has only just begun and already I am feeling very stressed. One of my subjects, Coasts and Catchments, seems to require a 3 unit HSC geography background which I don't have, even though I did the 2 prerequisites last year. So I have flicked that, maybe next year if I can read through alot of stuff over summer. I am also going to drop Development and Change in Asia and maybe do it next year.

I am left with English, and Creative Arts in the Classroom which will be hard enough on their own, lots of reading!!! I feel so free...............

I still need time for Bible Study prep, Scripture, looking after my family, and of course Friday Craft.

Mick Thomas

Mick Thomas from Weddings Parties Anything used to be the love of my life until I met Dave.

(He is not the one in the Hawaiian shirt, just so you know.)

I have loved this band since I was 19 and have been to see them countless times. I know every word to every album.

So happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just bought Dave and I tickets for the WPA Reunion Tour on April 5th.

Check out this for a look at them in action.

Green Smoothie Challenge

Today is the first day of the Happy Foody Green Smoothie Challenge.

Mum and I are doing it together. Here is what I used this morning; apple, celery, carrot and parsley. It was very yummy.

Busy week.

This week has been extremely busy. On Wednesday night a group of us went to see Hugh Mackay speak about Australian Society, and his new book. It was so interesting to hear him talk, and I really warmed to his optimism. My mum (who is also a sociologist) loves him so I got him to sign a copy for her.

Saturday Night we went to Jazz in the Park and listened to the Peter McDonald Quintet. Such a lovely way to spend an evening, connecting picnic rugs with friends, eating and drinking and listening to great jazz. (sorry about the fuzzy photo)
On the craft front, only a little bit happening. I finally finished these two tops for Sarah and she left one at a party on Sunday, hopefully it will return.

Houdini

We have given 'Eggweena' a new name, Houdini!! She keeps getting out of the chook pen to go and lay her egg in the garden. Here she is hiding from me. Jonathan is the only one brave enough to pick her up and put her back in the pen.

This morning I went and had my free sewing lesson that came with my new machine. I now have a better idea about all the different feet, button holes, sewing stretch fabric, and overlocking - my machine has an overlocking stitch, how cool is that!!!

I also went and had my eyes tested as I am having trouble reading and threading needles. Old age is creeping in, I am having some reading glasses made, will post a pic when I have them.

When I was tucking Jonty into bed tonight he said to me, " This home would not be a real home if you didn't live in it".

Awww, he is such a honey.
