Welcome to my family!

I've been talking about getting one for awhile now, but so far, haven't really got around to doing it for various reasons but my dad has come through with the goods, good ol' dad, he's done it again.

I come home from a pretty ordinary day at work, in miserable weather and there to greet me was a tiny little bundle of black fluff! A real cutie! How can one be miserable when you are greeted at the door by such a good looker?



And once again, we don't know what breed she is, but she's almost an identical twin of Taxi when Taxi was that age....




The pup will have to remain nameless until further notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

On a different tangent, my rather dreary weekend didn't end up so dreary on Sunday, thank the Lord.
I was taken to RAAF Point Cook as a tag-along to watch someone fly in a Tiger Moth plane.




So, we drove to the RAAF, got our visitor passes (**see stupid cheesey grin above**)




Drove through to the Flying Club.... (**damn sun loves shining in my face!**)




I took some imaginary flying lessons, borrowed some aviator sunnies and posed with some fake peoples, pretending to be a real pilot.




And here's the Tiger Moth, what more can I say? A pilot I ain't....
But an enjoyable day I did have, we even got to see some unexpected flight practices, and some aerial performances, which made our little sojourn to Point Cook, rather pleasant.

Now, next weekend is jam-packed, I desperately need shoes. I know what you're all thinking, goodness no! She does not need any more shoes! But you don't understand, I don't want new shoes, I honestly don't. I NEED new shoes. It's a need, not a want. There's a difference.

I can't possibly be a stunning bride's maid walking around in my stunning bride's maid dress in my super comfy joggers, no no no no, that just won't do, I need a pair of stunning bride's maid heels. Preferably a super comfy pair....................

Anyways, I'm off to play with my new puppy :)

Weekend off to a great start

What's the weekend like?

Well... nobody's home.
Nobody to hang out with.
Room is a mess.
House is cold.
I'm tired.
I'm sleepy.
I'm at home on a Friday night watching Suddenly 30 by myself.
AND
I scalded myself with boiling chicken stock while making dinner.

So yeah, I'm off to a great start

Plus, I still need to buy shoes and a bag for the wedding.
Weather is looking miserable on the weekend.
Don't feel like going shopping alone.

Wonderful.
Life is wonderful.
