Hello fellow tea enthusiasts, it's been ever so long since my last post but my dear, darling small child unfortunately smashed my laptop screen , so I have been sans computer for a month or two now. Suffice to say I was not very impressed, and I'm currently typing this on my iPad with my new bluetooth keyboard so I'm a little slow and unused to it! Besides that, life has been basically cruising along as normal, we're recovering from a particularly severe bout of the flu at the moment, which means the last week has been spent in bed or on the couch. I hate spending so much time doing nothing though, I guess that comes from being a Mum, or perhaps it's just a woman thing, but I can't stand sitting still doing nothing, all that wasted time!! The house is still relatively clean though, so thats counted as a win! I am feeling really god-awful about my appearance though, something about being sick that just makes you feel downright shit about yourself isn't there?? Maybe its the fact I have been living in my pyjama's and trackies all week, I've lost my mojo!
It feels good to be semi-human again! I think today will be the day that I get dressed nicely, and hopefully I can play netball tonight, I've missed out on the last two weeks (one cause I was interstate for my friends wedding, one due to the flu) so tonight I'm going to dose myself up on Drixine, Lemsip and Throaties and maybe play a back position instead of centre like I usually do!
The weather is definitely getting hotter, as I'm sitting here typing this we've just had a nice refreshing thunderstorm. It's made it so much cooler than yesterday, thank goodness. Our pool is all cleaned and ready for swimming though and I spent yesterday cleaning up our outdoor area and BBQ so it's all ready for some lovely summer nights outdoors. Still not quite the same with my best friend oversea's all summer but I guess that just means I'll have to drink all her share of the Strongbow! Sucks to be her! Haha. I also now have an empty granny flat out the back because my brother and his boyfriend moved out, so I have a summer project of making it into a beaut little escape from the kids! Just kidding, I'm making it my craft room and our spare room, so when people come to visit they have their own space and don't feel like they are imposing on us (plus they will be able to sleep in without the kids jumping all over them in the mornings!) Win-win! I love thinking of new idea's for my house. It sucks that its so open plan though, I hate open plan living, it limits every room within your house, such a pet peeve of mine! But I guess it's something that I'm stuck with so I'd better embrace it! I just want to get rid of my shitty teal coloured laminate benchtops in favour of a nice new timber benchtop! But all of that house renovating will come after the wedding, better not get too ahead of myself!
It must be time for a cuppa, I'm glad my bluetooth keyboard seems to work well! What have all you lovelies been doing in my absence? I hope everyone is well!
