Goood Morning ppl,
Another Friday morning already! Amazing! Time really is flying! Must be having fun!
Plans for this weekend… Pay for billiards table… finish setting up the apartment…. bring the last of Sumali’s furniture from her parents place… that’s the stuff out of the ordinary!
Ooh, my assistant has got the job at
Well its
TTYL
Hello Hello,
Sorry guys, i have been tardy again with the posting. Last time i said to myself i’d never let it go two days without blogging. Ha…
Annnyways, lets see…. Ooh, work is heaps different now, the guy who interviewed and hired me has been forced to resign… The business still wasn’t making budget so…. Lol must make sure i never become a branch manager…. Also my assistant never got his CPM role, so now his go to an interview to be transfered to the Parramatta branch. So sad, too bad :-p Also, the plumbing warehouse dude has also applied to be transfered the Marrylands store. This is a shame as he’s a good worker and friend. But to be fair, marry lands is walking distance to his home, and he’d get paid the same for a lot less physical work….
I’m still doing well at my work, the area manager has been spending a lot of time at my store as we have been without senior management. He offered me a position in Darwin to work for 2 weeks as they are going to be in need of an experianced branch assistant up there in October. I’m not really right for that as i have spent less than 10minute on the front counter and its a purely plumbing store, so insteading of drowning i turned it down. A shame, as i could have caught up with Ray with free travel and accommodation, but yeah still nice to be offered…
Me and smily are alone! our room mate has moved out! we have been a bit bad… Today we put a deposit on a $3998.00 billiard table at B&B Billards… We haggled them down to $3600 and upgraded accessory pack… We’ll get it delivered within two weeks… I know, were bad… Its flash as… Just uploaded a pic of the style. We are getting a 7′ table, so it’ll have 4 legs, not 6, burgandy felt and dark walnut stain. Its the most upmarket 7′ table they make…
Okay, time for bed! chat latter peeps!
Andy

Just realised I forgot to link to pics of Ray’s visit, so i’ve added another album down the side called "Friends".
Hello 
First of all thanks to everybody who wished me a happy birthday in one way or another, it was really weird, some ppl phoned or sms’d, some ppl left comments on this blog, others left comments/items in facebook, (hehe Jojo sent me a hippo). I have to say i’ve never felt so in touch with technology before!
Speaking of technology, Andy got me an awesomely beautiful computer case, its really beautiful and i love it, i’ll post a picture of it when i get home (i’m writing this at work). He also got me a snazzy power supply and my parents got me a graphics card so Andy ended up pulling my computer apart and we’re using my old case for the file server or something and he left me to put my computer together again with the new bits. Poor Annabelle came home to see our mess everywhere and the next day her dad came around to help her get some stuff. He always only sees our apartment when its messy! Speaking of Annabelle she’ll be staying for an extra week while the tenant living where she’s moving to moves out.
We went to Ocean Seafood Restaurant in the piazza at Towers which was nice, I got a strange meal with cubes of feta cheese in the nice and prawns and peeled carrots…it sounds awful but it tasted great, everybody enjoyed their meals except my dad but he got the fish and fish is usually yucky. Andy had the fish and chips liked. My mum made a really nice cake with marshmallow cream and rose petals, it looked like a gigantic edible porcupine.
On a serious note the garage downstairs where we keep the car and motorbike got broken into and 5 cars had their windows smashed in. It was pretty shocking. Apparently somebody left the front door open so anybody could’ve gotten in. Too bad the building is so well insulated against noise or we might’ve heard something. I’ve always parked my car inside the garage assuming its safer in there but i guess not…I guess living next to a train station increases the incidence of ferals mooching around.

Stop The Press!
Sumali has found her cooking niche! She brought some frozen chinese stuff, and used the steamer Dana bought us for christmas and it was aaaawesome!
Andy
Great to hear you tried the steamer, you will be supprised how much food you can steam, and how good it can taste. It will be a lot cheaper if you cook your meals at home, instead of going out. I have started working at the primary school. I love it there are a few jobs I can’t do because of the pain. But mostly everything is okay. Bye for now luv ya, Dana

hehe yeah, we’re trying…i bought a whole bunch of spices on the weekend to try them out and see what happens.
We finally made it to craft hobbies today, they didn’t have dvds but they had a lot of books. Some were like a collection of tutorials for particular quilts and some were more general like a book on doing different borders. What kind of stuff do you do at the primary school?

Dad looks great in the beanie you got him, he has worn it everyday since receiving it. His arm is slowly getting better, but his car is getting worse. Hopefully nothing else will go wrong with it. Once the Harmonic Balance and a few more new tyres the 4wd should be good as new.
Wayne was in Bordertown this weekend so sell some more tractor gear. They still have’nt had anyone look at the house. Although the guy that has the junk place across the road from the swimming pool still wants to buy it. But if he buys it no one will want to buy the house.
Nothing much more has changed, the little kittens are so cute especially the grey one.
Buy for now, luv ya.

oooh! Peppy had her kittens?!?! how many?!?!
Comment by andy — September 2, 2007 @ 6:10 pm
Hi I didn’t know you could comment on my comment. Peppy had 3 kittens, 2 Boys. The second kitten was breech, got stuck coming out, so I had to pull it out. I tried resus on it but it was dead, so I flushed it down the toilet. The grey one is a little smaller than the black and white one, may be because he was born a day later. Dad goes into hospital next Wed 12th and the operation on the 13th. We will be staying in Adelaide for a week or so, I hope to take some holidays in a weeks time. Catch you later. luv ya
