Weekends

Baked these 'reindeer' cupcakes lastnight for my son's cupcake day at school.  When he saw them this morning he laughed... and not in a good way!

Took my baby girl to the doctor after she had been bitten 32 times by mosquitos, 12 of which are on her poor little face.  Gave her a non-drwosy antihistamene.  She slept for 14 hours straight.

Packed up our beach house which finally sold. 

Got exposed to far too much flesh whilst assisting a lady in the changerooms at my newish job.  And when I say far too much flesh I mean, just her in her knickers and bra... and she need a bikini wax... from her knees up!  I am not sure I get paid enough to look at that.

Finished all my Christmas shopping.  Now I just have to post most of it back to Tasmania.

Got addicted to Handmade Ryan Gosling.

How was your weekend?

This week I'm grateful for...

Oh the joy of returning to work!  I get to wear grown up lady shoes!  Necklaces!  Pretty clothes!  I get to talk to other grown ups!  Use my brain!   Earn some of my own money!

And most importantly, I get to go to the loo on my own and you just gotta be grateful for that!!!

(btw - those wedges are from Keds and they have to be the most comfortable things ever!!!)

Dont forget to enter my wee lego giveaway.  It finishes on Monday night.

Two totes terrific things for Tuesday!

I got a job!!!!

You may or may not know I am a primary school teacher by trade but after I had Oscar (7 years ago) I went on maternity leave and am yet to return.  In those 7 years two more sweet smalls came along.  So with three little people, a husband who travels frequently for work and all my potential babysitting family members in Tasmania, I am not really an attractive prospective employee!

Since I can only do weekends and late nights I had been looking into some Christmas casual work and heard today that I got the one I wanted!  Yay for me!   Double yay that it is in a ladies fashion store that I frequent and as an employee apparently gives a substantial discount!

Second good thing - love winning bloggy competitions and I had this parcel of leonine goodness arrive late yesterday.

Thanks to Joni at the Diary of Joni and Anya.  My kids are in Lion King Heaven!  And so am I!
