Taking Time

So I've had another long weekend. Thursday was ANZAC day and then I took an RDO on Friday for a four day weekend.

Thursday I had a relaxing day, before a spontaneous trip to the movies with Jacinta to see Iron Man 3. I really enjoyed it. I liked the first one, the 2nd was ok, and I loved The Avengers.
We got there really early, turns out there were no lines so we had plenty of time to kill. We walked around a while, Glen Waverley has changed a lot since I've worked there. I miss it sometimes. 

Friday Mum and I went to Chadstone, which I haven't been to in ages. We went to Myer and I bought a new handbag and some other things. Then we looked at a couple of shops and then went to Koko Black for coffee.

Today I did nothing, which was nice. I watched Disney Movies, which I haven't done in a while. Its nice to have a lazy Sunday. I went for a walk, which I am not able to do as much now that day light savings is over, cause its practically dark when I get home.

Tomorrow is back to work, which is gonna suck. Its been so nice to have time to take it slow, and get things done. I've done all the washing, I started back organizing the rest of my bedroom. I've thrown out some more clothes and shoes. I'm a little afraid to start going through what's under my bed. But that's the next step.

Not a lot else on at the moment. Legally Blonde is coming up again in a few weeks. So glad its finally making its way to Melbourne. And of course there is always more Hawaii planning. Course now the big stuff is booked, the other stuff is less time sensitive.

12 of 12 April

Well its been years, yes years since I've done this. I kinda forgot how to do it. I forgot how hard it is to find things worth taking pics of. But gotta say, its easier with an iPhone!

I know its not done on the level that was started by Chad Darnell back in the day, but after looking at some old blog posts last weekend, I thought I'd give it a shot again. Because its nice to stop and record a few moments in 1 day.

So here we go - 12 of 12 April 2013.


1. 8:26am - Hooray for Fridays, and sunny skies over St Kilda/Balaclava.

2. 8:27am - Do they have a permit for that? Occupational hazard...but hurry up and finish the footpath!


 3. 1:11pm - Kylie and I were naughty and got Urban Burger for lunch. Never had it before, it was actually quite nice. We had a picnic at her desk...its cleaner than mine!

4.  4:21pm - From the moment I finished lunch, I was go go go at work...and suddenly it was almost over!

5. 5:43pm - Finally home, Autumn is here and daylight savings is over. I hate getting home as its getting dark. 



 6. 5:45pm - Yay my new boots arrived today!


7. 5:49pm - Finding tonight's TV shows. Not much on this week.



8. 5:58pm - Boots are out of the box and made for walking!

9. 6:04pm - Mum has transformed an empty garden bed at the back deck into a nice paved path towards the clothesline. I like it!


 10. 7:47pm - Watching Glee...seriously, she's singing to a cat!


 11. 8:05pm - Okay Glee took a serious turn, and got really sad and serious. Nice work Glee writers! Wow....just wow.

12. 11:49pm - I'm beat and ready for bed. Its so chilly at night now, its new winter pjs time!


 Well I did it. I managed to find 12 things to photograph today. But now I'm exhausted and its time for bed. Hopefully I'll remember to do it again next month!
