Update

Its been a while since I've updated and I guess a fair bit of little things have happened.

The house is going well. The flooring has been finished, we've got a proper driveway, the electricity has been turned on, we've got a tv aerial, the pavers have been delivered, and the shed materials have been delivered. We got a great 20ml of rain out there a few weeks ago so that was a great boost to the tanks. Someone has bought the land next door and put some sheep and cattle on it - its nice to sit at our temporary dining table, look out the window and see the cows wandering around.

I'm about to become a golfer. I played 12 holes on Anzac Day with James and two other people and we won! I had a few shit hits and one of the other guys tried to be nice and give me pointers, but I know when suck and I know how to fix it, so I got upset. Not directly to him, but James could see the steam coming out of my ears. Nevertheless, I have officially ordered some new golf clubs (a set of Wilson Hopes - they're pink!) and will get my handicap this season and sometimes play on Saturdays. It was Australiana Night at the golf club on Saturday and I went over to Viv to ask if she wouldn't mind coming out me (to get your handicap, you play 3 x 18 holes with a club member and then it gets worked out). I said that I'd ordered some clubs and wanted my handicap but before I could ask her anything, Adey jumps in and says she'll come out with me any time I want and to just let her know. I was blown away! She's been telling me to get my handicap for ages but I just haven't felt ready. I feel more confident now, but I still need to practise a lot, but as James said - if I go for it and get a crap handicap, by the end of the season I should have knocked a few points off and improved.

Back to work today - I've been sick since last Tuesday. I'm not really looking forward to going back. Its not necessarily work, I just don't really like Marilyn. She's been really hard to teach and she just doesn't seem to read her notes and do things properly.

Today is going to be really long - I'm tired already! Really don't want to go to work...
