I know I have been quiet and I want to thank those people who have been popping over to see if I have had anything to say - I haven't - for two reasons - work has been absolutely manic and in the evenings I have been spending time with A while he is home. We also seem to have had a whole bunch of people over at various times and it seemed like ages that I was in the kitchen the whole time !!
Celebrations for the Suns win over Collingwood are now over !
The birthday celebrations are now out the way !
A's training course and 'working day when he is supposed to be off' is out the way !
Tomorrow he is having some more cancers cut out of his nose that they didn't get the last time. Unfortunately I can't be there as I had a bank audit booked in two months ago so luckily my folks can take him and then drop him back home again.
Now to the exciting news of Pink's concert last night - a belated birthday present.
It was fantastic ! She is such a performer - so athletic and agile. It was just lovely watching her. I said to A that I could see how much she had matured from her early days. She has definitely taken to motherhood so well.
I wasn't as taken with her costumes at this concert as I was at the last one. I thought that she could have done more with her costumes this time and they looked a bit like things she had just pulled out of somewhere quickly on her way to the show. Having said that, they certainly didn't detract from her show or how absolutely fantastic she is.
The camera on my phone did not do her justice in any shots and this was the clearest I could find to use. She is singing in the little 'step out stage' with only the guitar.
I think that all her concerts are sold out but if you get a chance to pick up a ticket from someone who has a ticket but can't go for some reason, take it with both hands - it certainly is a great way to spend an evening !
The Kin, which were her support act, were also very good. They had amazing voices but I didn't particularly like they way they ended a few of their songs - that was a little strange. But on the whole, they certainly were good to listen to for most of their songs.
I'll be back next week once A has gone back to Townsville - take care !

Glad u are having fun & A is home - I was surprised but happy for the Suns...big news!!!!

So jealous!! I am sure she will be out again!! Glad you are having a busy but good time!!
ReplyDeleteI am sure she will be out again - she seems to like Australia (although what is not to like about this lovely country ????)
DeleteHang in there - can't be long to go now !!
Love, hugs and positive energy !
Me
I love that final quote ! I have had some very nasty negativity thrown my way in the past 4 months and it has taken a monumental effort to not to respond with the same negativity. I have a screen saver that says "Just because someone throws you the ball, does not mean you must catch it". Choosing to stay out of the drama and behave in a way I am comfortable with xxx
ReplyDeleteIt sucks that you have had to deal with that - sometimes it really is so hard to stop the negative response - good for you !!!
DeleteWhat a great quote you have on your screen saver - I must try to remember that in the future !!!
Have the BEST day !
Me
Sounds like a fantastic night was had.
ReplyDeleteIt was - thank you !
DeleteHave a great week !
Me
Lucky you to go to Pink, I tried but every time I logged on I could only get single tickets :(
ReplyDeleteIt was a really stroke of luck that we managed to get the three tickets.
DeleteHave the best week!
Me
Very jealous! I couldn't manage to get tickets this year but I went last time she came out & it was brilliant! Hope things settle for you soon but enjoy having A home while you can x
ReplyDeleteBetween you and me, you got to see the better concert - I definitely think that one was better than this one.
DeleteAm enjoying every last minute of having him home !!
Have a great week !
Me
Oh I am going to see her at one of her last Brissy shows and I CAN'T wait!!!!
ReplyDeleteI am sure you will enjoy it.
DeleteHave a great week !
Me
Great thought for the day! I saw Pink last time she was here. Loved her. Such a great show!
ReplyDeleteI think you saw the better show - I enjoyed it more than this one. I'm not saying this one wasn't good - just the other one was better (I felt).
DeleteHave a great day !
Me
Glad you enjoyed the show, and yes I have missed you. xxx Rae
ReplyDeleteThank you Rae !!! I miss my online friends when I am not around too.
DeleteHave a great week !
Me
I must take my girl to Pink next time - I'm sure she will be back. I reckon she's a great role model for young girls to be strong.
ReplyDeleteShe is a good role model - and she doesn't swear nearly as much as she did at her last concert !!
DeleteHave a great week !
Me
Yay for a great night!!! And I'm super stoked you had a lovely time with A, sucks he's going back soon :( Hear from you soon xxx
ReplyDeleteYou and me both think it sucks !!!!
DeleteHave the best day !
Me
So glad you enjoyed the concert, and make the most of the time while A's here. Have missed seeing you around, but glad you're having some good family time. xx
ReplyDeleteThank you Lisa - I've missed you guys heaps. It's just about getting that balance right isn't it ?
DeleteHave a great week !
Me

Jealous, I wish I was there, oh well maybe next time. Hey will be on the computer when in Aussie, so let me know what day suit you best to meet up, maybe lunch somewhere as I am not good at nights... looking forward to catching up :)

Looks like you've had a very busy week. I've never been to a PInk concert, but its on my to-do list :)
ReplyDeleteI would recommend going to at least one of her concerts.
