The new garden/lawn mower person turned up yesterday to do the lawns. This morning I was running late and got a knock on the door, and it was the tradies to fix the pelmet in my room, fix the toilet (which had started to leak again in a different spot to last time) and to install an exhaust fan for the bathroom. Good thing I was running late, as I had no idea they were coming today. In fact I was going to put in a maintenance request when I got to work! So I'll see what had happened when I get home.
The Chocolate High Tea and the overnight stay ion the city were great! We should do a High Tea when you come down next time. In the end there were 5 other and me, which made for a nice group actually. They all got together and got me a $90 Spotlight Gift Card too! We spent the entire 2 hours of the high tea talking and eating and drinking. I had a Mocha Coffee to start then had 2 pots of tea and a glass of sparkling too! Needless to say I didn't drink anymore tea for the rest of the weekend!
We wall walked down to where I was staying for the night, to check it out. The room was lovely and just what I wanted. We all then went downstairs to the DFO and the shopping commenced! LOL!! After all that my feet were super sore, lucky I didn't have far to go! Had planned to go out for dinner by myself, but decided to order in room service. I had a bath and was all relaxed and dreamy, then had dinner and watched a movie, then went to sleep! The next day I had a leisurely shower, re-packed my bag & checked out. I took myself off to have pancakes for breakfast then home.
I then needed to go to the supermarket and get some stuff for the week, so decided I needed to go to Spotlight too. I bought some lovely kimono style materials (which I will take a foto of later) and some other materials. I still have some money on it too!

Been A while
So it's been a while since I posted on here. There has been a lot going on and then again it seem like nothing too.
Work was really busy right till I went away for my Christmas break. went to Sydney at the beginning of December for a work "Training" day and to attend their Christmas/End of Year lunch. Work picked up the tab for everything, but I got the feeling they were gearing up for something later on. It hasn't hit yet, but I'm sure they want something from us, maybe it was because we suddenly become part of an International CSR Team? Who knows! I got more and more stressed as we got closer to the cut off date, mainly due to Simon not doing his job properly, and taking his time to do things he knew needed to be done earlier! I think, wait, I know I yelled at him daily, I even told him to go away on a couple of occasions. I wasn't the only one who was frustrated and stressed by him either. In fact I think the entirety of the office were.
We had a great Christmas lunch at MaHa Bar & Grill, and after drinks at Bar Humbug! I left the party at around 8.30pm, but some kept going until the wee hours of the morning. It took me an hour and a half to get home too. I fell asleep and the train changed destinations mid journey, so I had to get off and back track. I didn't end up packing my suitcase till 1am or so the next morning. I had an early flight too.
Got to Sydney and made my way to Macquarie Centre to meet up with Simone for lunch. It was great catching up, although it was hard to keep the conversation going some of the time. Then I was on a bus to Parramatta, so I could check in to my accommodation. It was a nice serviced apartment, that was split level and air conditioned! It also had a big spa bath in it too!
