Catching Up

I have been remiss in keeping up the blog this week. My last posting was for Monday-Tuesday, which is 5-days ago. That is the longest time I have let it slip except Christmas. So what I propose is a summary.

Part of the reason for this is really simple, life has been busy and happy, and I mean HAPPY. I have trouble remembering a week so good for ages. It is not just that things have been going my way. No. It is how I have managed to find happiness and address my needs as well.

Wednesday - A busy day, especially at work where I had to work very hard and finished late. Enjoyed the challenge and know I did a great job, so do the bosses. I also had Julie visit, and we have become friends, my first local friend! It really is great having a friend like them. 

Thursday - Early start at work with little sleep. It is none the less a brilliant shift. I train a new guy, and do it well. The bosses give me lots more work like baking and helping out the chef, which is really excellent and uses more of my skill set. I go and do my shopping, then meet JL for a drink before we go to The Big Q, where we eat pizza and play board games. A great day.

Friday - First up was getting the eyebrows done, always a good time. I also go an buy power tools and other stuff at my favourite hardware store, and that really is fun. I try out some of the new stuff, making one heck of a mess. I make a really great meal of Roast pork & Sauerkraut + Baked spiced apple, corn, roast tomatoes + pork crackle. What a meal. Then its a night out. Where? A drag show competition, and I got to spend it with Julie in the front row, which was awesome. We later walked town to get a bite, and by the looks and comments we were seen as a couple, which we are not. Truly  developing an appreciation for how this friendship has affected me. Fantastic fun out.

 

 

 

 

 

Saturday - A slow start from a late night, I get the new power tools into action, which is great fun and they are helping so much. I feel productive, and I am making better progress. There is the biggest mess to clean up. I rush to get ready to go out to a social event, and realise that I am 2-weeks early when I get there. So I have a drink & chips, go to K-mart to get some tights & stockings, then to my hardware store. At home I have a nice night in, easy meal, and I watch YouTube lots. This is because I am in YT-Jail again for 24-hrs for no reason. Sleep on the couch half the night.

Sunday - A really slow start, I eventually get the tools going, making mess and noise, and making progress. Later in the day after a break my new circular saw explodes and the cable is blown apart. Wow! I go get a replacement to some disbelief from a guy who kept saying the cable was cut, which it was not. Men! So tonight I find myself back in first a 1-hour then 24-hour YouTube Jail again! This is nuts. I have an awesome variation of the meal the other night, and it is even better.
