Another wonderful SENZ weekend has passed. More great memories filed away. Lovely time spent with friends, both new and not so new. Some shopping and new layouts filed away too. Funniest moments? Trina asking me to play photographer in her class, me asking her where the zoom was on her SLR camera. Some poor lady had fallen down the stairs at the entrance and an ambulance had been rung (now that wasn't funny) but looking out from the third floor and seeing Danice (whose a nurse)'helping' - in her nurse cottony overcoat thing (you know those things they wear so they don't get covered in vomit etc) with a ciggy in her mouth. Hmm doesn't sound as funny as it looked lol. Discussing the ways in which we could welcome Mandy - lucky for Mandy we didn't organise any of them earlier lol. Lots of others but alas time is running out (and I don't want to bore you with them!)
A new job started today, and getting home much earlier than I used to, now that's bliss. It meant I could finish a layout and actually take a photograph of it lol. But must shoot off soon as it's dog obedience tonight.
When I went off to Heidi and Vicki's on Thursday morning as we headed off to pick up Mandy from the airport, I noticed a Chorus bloke, (you know the phone fixer upper people lol) at the phone box thingy which sits in front of our paddock, so I stopped and had a wee chat with him about what he was doing, turns out it might be for broadband. He said it was for broadband but maybe it's for a new house. Better not be, this old house here needs it first lol. So people, keep your fingers, toes and whatever else crossed because that would seriously be life changing for me if we had broadband to the gate. I could watch video's. It might not take me ten tries to upload one photo. When I email people it might actually go through...And yes, I did phone Telecom and got a great girl and the call centre. As I explained what I was wanting to know, the girl (Sarah was her name) said "yep, one of my friends here in the call centre lives out your way and has exactly the same issues...makes it pretty hard when she has to try and sell the product to customers." LOL.
Right, time to throw on warmer clothes and head off with my little dog.

I LOVE that "Snow Angel" layout, it's beautiful!
Also love the photo of you girls!
I hope you DO get broadband soon. I think if I were you I would have shifted house!! Don't think I could live without it. Amazing that my parents still have dial up - by CHOICE?!?!
Whoo hoo at the new job!! Makes a difference to your day, getting home earlier.
Um that SENZ incident kinda sounded funny ( not that the woman fell) but I am picking you had to be there to arpeciate it.
Sounds like you had a wonderful time catching up with Mandy and I dare say you she was lucky she didn't get a creative welcome that the terrible trio were planning :-P
We take for granted things like broadband. You have so much patience, fingers crossed you get it.
I am with Hannah I love the Snow angel layout too.
Seriously, I love those wings ... heavenly, divine, something or other ... they rock!!!!
Arriving home from work a little earlier than the norm, and on a permanent basis, has to be good for you - make the most of those extra daylight hours my friend.
