Woah!? You want me!!!? YAY!

Well… things have been a little crazy over here, and I guess that has left me with no time to blog. I have spent ages on the phone to people, and I feel that I should get one of the dam things surgically implanted into my ear!

The reason behind all this? I have just been promoted. I am so dam EXCITED!!!!!!

When I first got my job I didn't really know what I was getting into. But as I went further along I realised how lucky I was to be in my job. Nearly all of my kind of jobs are always in SYD or MEL. So even though I was only an assistant, people still wanted my job!

Now that I have been promoted I realise how prestigious having my job in BNE really is. Another Coordinator I was talking to waited for THREE years to be able to get a job in my field. Three years!

I really am so lucky, and I love the job that I am doing. I look after some pretty awesome South Pacific destinations, if I do say so myself.

This weekend we are having a few people over to celebrate. Apparently we are going to bust out the baileys. Delicious!

Annoying Bells!

I think I am in the dog box. Or more accurately... the cat box.

QLD has now introduced a law where - like dogs - you have to register your cats. And also like dogs, they need to wear their tags on the collars.

Uh... yeah. The collar...

Our cats HATE anything around their necks. Duckie is especially bad. He will get a collar off in about 5 minutes if he is unsupervised. He will stash them places, and we will find the months later, usually gardening or cleaning up.

So today I very hesitantly brought two collars for the cats. A purple one for Julie, and a black one for Duckie. I usually take the bells off but I have left them on this time, so I know when they are playing with them.

We have had a couple of incidents, but the day has gone pretty well. I would like to say they are getting used to them, but we will see. The bells are really bugging me, but they seem to bug the cats too. The hear it and stop scratching the annoying things.

Now we just have to register them, and we will be all set. They need to know how big our house is.. but really? I have no clue! This is why it has been put off for so long. Who knows the size of a rental property when its not listed?

Honest Scrap

Here is an award I recently received from Jeanette.




The Honest Scrap Award.



The rules for this award are to tell your readers 10 things about you that are true, that they might not know. Then you have to tag 10 other bloggers to do the same. So here goes....

1) I am a fussy sleeper. I need to sleep on my stomach with my head to the left to be able to sleep.

2) I LOVE the rain. I was once told years ago that “The most waterproof thing you have is your skin” and since then I never mind being out in the rain.

3) I think I am slightly addicted to the Twilight books. I want to read them again! This will be my 3rd time in a few months.

4) Respect is VERY important to me. I hate it when people (usually my age or younger) are rude or arrogant. Especially to older people. Sometimes I want to shake them and say “what the hell do you think you are doing?”

5) I wished I only worked part time. I feel like work dominates my life at the moment.

6) I am loosing my love for adrenalin activities. I am going skydiving again soon, and I am actually scared! When I was 16 I was only excited.

7) I have a chocolate addiction. I always want chocolate, or something sweet. I even argue with myself (in my head) about weather to stop at the store by the train station to buy chocolate. Certified nutter!

8) My life has never felt as complete as it does with Peter by my side.

9) I daydream… a lot! I take a situation and depending on my mood can mix it up to have good or bad outcomes. Something simple, can instantly turn into a huge daydream.

10) I sometimes wish my life was lived in past eras. I would like to live in the times when all a woman had to do was look after her husband and family. I have always been a caring person, and would love nothing more than having my own family to look after. But then I think about all the modern conveniences that I would have to live without. I think I would do well on one of those TV programs where you live back in time for 6 months or so.

I dont know who i want to pass it on to, so if you want to join in... do it now, becuase I choose you!
