Things I Know

Today is Friday which means it is the linky with the lovely Miss Cinders at Saturday Morning Ogre Mum because, as she always tells us, we all know sh*t !  And because it is Friday it is FYBF with the lovely Grace at With Some Grace

- I know that I have made some lovely new on-line friends in the past week, one of whom has made me my very own button (see down the right hand side) - how cute is that ????  Please feel free to us it !!  Thanks so much to the awesome Kate from Crazy. Crunchy. Chocolate. Mummy for doing this for me.

- I know that Lisa from Random Acts of Zen is an amazing lady who sent me the nicest parcel of items to include in my Pay It Forward project.

- I know that I went for a 4.5km run this week and it was heaps less painful than my runs from last week (and I didn't feel quite as poncy either - BIG bonus !!!)

- I know that I am extremely grateful that it is Friday today which means it is the weekend tomorrow !!

- I know that the on again off again travel arrangements for A at work drives me nuts but I have been really relaxed about it all.  Go with the flow has been my motto this week !

- I know that this rain is really starting to p*ss me off - I know that some people are in drought and I do feel for them but us having extra rain up here really doesn't help them - and it does nothing for my mental health or our water logged gardens.  I NEED to see the sun SOON - pretty please weather gods !

- I know that I am thankful that my Mom's operation went well and she is recovering nicely.  We are taking dinner over to them tonight.  When I spoke to them this morning she said that she had had a good sleep and was in a bit of pain but nothing unbearable.

- I know that I really need to make a note of the things I know during the week because I know some awesome stuff which completely eludes me when I sit down to write this post

- I know that I am p*ssy that the NAB Cup games are not included in our Suns membership - who can pay for an annual membership and then still pay $34.50pp for each of the NAB games.

- I know that I am going to have an awesome day at the office today - because. I. am. all. alone.  And, I came to work in my Warrior Dash T-shirt, my 3/4 jeans and my Sensible Sally shoes !!

And, because all the awesome stuff that I know is not coming to the fore, I will leave you with what little I do know !!

Have the best Friday and an even better weekend !

    1. Well, unless they let us get in for free using our Suns membership cards, we are going to be watching it on TV - but that is OK because we are having a virtual vodka evening - can't wait !!!

  4. That's a fab button - i love it! I taught my 5-yold the word 'procrastination' the other day. It was time she had a word to describe what she was doing. :) I'm sadly too tech-challenged to even work out how to add the Google friend connect picture thingey to my blog. Have a wonderful weekend - hopefully with some sun :)
