they just make me happy! Even if i was slack and didn't get my lazy butt out of bed to go for a run this morning ... I caught up with a gorgeous friend for morning tea, and before we both realised it was 12.45 .... i guess time flies when you are having fun! I did decide to make more of an effort to socialise this year ... as last year on my fridays off, i just found it blissful to have peace and quiet and enjoy my own time. However .... you do need to spend time with people to maintain relationships, so that is a focus for me, and i am enjoying it i must say! We have a really fun group of kindy mums this year and on a friday we stop for a cuppa after drop off ... its been great, howe

I made these cards yesterday, one for my friend i met today ... and the other for my nephew who is ONE tomorrow .... i wish we were going to his little party! boo hoo! he is super cute! i can't wait to see pictures! The invisibles are awesome to use for cards ... i love the result.
Katya has a new bike ... so tonight the big girls rode their bikes with Gary pushing Gi in the running pram while walking Daisy! I went for a run and should have met up with them coming back, however ... i obviously ran further than i thought and only just got them as we were going up the hill ... oh man, it ended up being quite a hard run (due to the fact i was thinking i would be walking the last 3 kms ... ) i am thinking i will sleep well tonight! i am thinking i deserve a piece of carmel slice for my hard work ... he he!
Family Movie Night tonight was High School Musical 3 ... the girls were SUPER EXCITED, even tho we've seen it before ... so cute! I made a beef korma curry ... it was really yum. maybe i'll share the recipe it was from a magazine ... maybe Woman's Day? i can't really remember i got it from the hairdressers the other day! I did a double batch, so have a few extra dinners in the freezer now ... LOVE THAT!
