Heys i got my hair cut recently. Like it?
~smily
Hi! Your hair cut looks great, so shiny. We are of to Adelaide tomorrow, again. I have appointment with the physio and then with a retraining work program coordinator. Then Saturday Rod and I are off to Ardrossan to see Jo and Waynes house. Jo starts her new job there on the 2nd July. On TV I see you are getting lots of rain. We are getting some not a lot though. Its very cold at night and early in the morning. Im starting to have a very big clear-out. Big garage sale in the next 5 weeks or so. Hopefully Andy I can sell some of your things here and sent you some money. Michaels house is progressing well, the brickwork should be finished this weekwend. Catch up with you later.
Luv you both, Dana.

Hey everybody,
Thanks heaps to Rhea, Mark, Aaron, Lili and Eddie for attending "games night" at our place on Friday night. Yes we only played one game but still, best games night ever. Apologies to Lili for making her sit through Clerks 2 hehe…if she wasnt already feeling sick, she certainly left sick…
This is lili eating her cheese covered cream biscuit as punishment for losing jenga. More pics coming eventually.

Its been absolutely miserable here over the past week and neither of us like it! Tonight there’s supposed to be "cyclonic winds" in Syd so that should be fun to sleep through. We’ve been a little busy lately, its almost becoming the norm. I had work on the weekend to cover Mal’s shifts while she studies for exams. On Wednesday I went to a work dinner to farewell Myer manager Mark who was always really nice to me. On Friday night we hung out with the family at the Outback Steakhouse in Parklea. We didn’t have to wait as long as we thought we did for a seat and the food was nice but really wasn’t cooked as well as it should have for such expensive meals at over $30 per person…not including the $11 beers etc.
Andy said it made a mockery of our discount steak nights…speaking of which, Tuesday steak nights with Andi and Rhyll are still going well. We hung out with them on Saturday night for Pad Thai and curry dinner followed by poker and then karaoke and Buzz on the playstation.
Update on the 20th: well that storm turned out to be nothing much…it was even sunny today…me and Andy had lunch at Verve cafe, chicken breast burgers are really nice there.
~smiles
Yay Andys back from Adelaide and everythings back to normal. Good luck to Mal, first day of exams tomorrow and good luck to Andy, first day as Inventory Manager today!
Just added Rhea’s Myspace link to the links list. I’m now 3/4ths of the way to getting an account there too but heard that Virb is better. Anybody on facebook or Virb? Let me know if you are. Did an interesting poll today:
| Sumali’ Driving Is is: 40% Male, 60% Female |
 You are a careful, skilled driver. And you are patient in sticky driving situations. You may get aggressive from time to time, but normally you’re a cool, collected driver. |
Do You Drive Like a Guy or a Girl?

While Andy was off in South Australia over the long weekend I spent some time with the fam, did Malisha’s Myer shifts on Saturday and Sunday so she could study and then had the Monday off which will be my only day off for the next 3 weeks. Poor Andy is going to have to entertain himself (won’t be a challenge for him at all i’m betting). On Monday before Andy arrived (flight delayed by an hour), the fam went out for Yum Cha in Carlingford which has myteriously lost a lot of its usual customers…we contemplated why over chinese tea, rice noodles, dimsims, calamari, prawn dumplings, chicken rice, beef and pork noodle, fish balls, green veg (the nice type), soya bean pudding with syrup…there’s so much more variety when you go with a big group, we ended up having a lot of stuff. I took pics with their camera, will upload in due time…
~smily
wah! what pics ?! there were no pics! or was there..?? -ponder-

A big sorry to the guys and gals from Des Comp with whom we were supposed to be enjoying the weekend away at the beach with. I kinda underestimated the pain factor of getting two lower wisdom teeth out and yeah…had to cancel…sorry….trust me it hurts me more than it hurts you :p
~smily
I got both my wisdom teeth out! Ouchy and not much fun…altho i did like being sedated…the anaesthesiest (need spell checker there ha) couldn’t find my veins and had to poke around a bit to find one which sucked, for $350 you’d think he’d get it right first go! I’ve got stitches inside my mouth on both sides, i can’t really tell whats going on there but it feels like my cheeks have been stiched to my gums….very weird feeling. I made this awesome contraption out of an old bandana and a ice pack made for an ankle sprain that kept my cheeks cool enough not to swell heaps. But then i took it off and today i look like a bowling ball!
Anyhoo now I can only eat much and liquids and icky stuff until i heal. I didn’t think the painkillers were working very well but Andy tells me 30mg of codeine is a lot and it probably is working…
I spent the night at my parents place where my mum looked after me while Andy took the night off, he probably had a great time without me bugging him for once! Next day Mal looked after me and helped me bake a tea cake which turned out really nicely. After all that relaxing and watching tv, Andy came to pick me up and when we got home he made me eggs and baked beans.
~smily
Andy’s a good boy looking after you, I taught him well. ha! ha! He always knew when we females need special hugs and care. Hope the pain settles quickly. Look after yourself. Luv ya! both, Bye Mum

hahah sumali, that is such a good look on you. it’s kind of like a camouflage SARS mask. so i guess you won the $2 moving downstairs office bet. i will pay you a further $2 if you turn up on monday with your SARS mask on! hope you are feeling better. don’t get too drugged up!
Hey Smily! I just found this site through your FaceBook. Just wanted to check to see that you were OK. Patonga was great fun… hope you can make it to the next gathering!
Hi Dana, yeah Andy’s a total sweetheart, he looks after me better than I do, you did do well!
Hey Jen! Thanks for checking up on me :p I wish I could’ve made it to Patonga cos I was really looking forward to having something more interesting to blog about…
Hehe sorry Rhea i didn’t read your comment til after i turned up on Monday…or else you know I would’ve worn it……… Thanks for the $2 although let it be on record that I did give you a double or nothing offer that you pansied out on :p
Comment by smily — June 4, 2007 @ 9:02 pm

Comment by Mal — June 11, 2007 @ 5:56 pm

Comment by andy and smily — June 12, 2007 @ 5:03 pm
Hi! Andy what is the minimum you want for the golf and cricket gear? How long was Raymond in Sydney for? You seem to be having yak weather there, we were suppose to get very strong winds etc but it wasn’t as bad as they thought it would be. Lots of rain though which is very good. Later when Sumali isn’t so busy I’ll get her to go to the quilting shop to see if they have any quilting magazines with DVD included.
I have finally got a date when I start at the Primary School, the second week of the third term. Last week in July. So that will be interesting I hope.
Catch ya later, Luv ya.
Comment by dana — July 6, 2007 @ 12:34 pm
Hiya Dana,
Umm, $50 for the cricket… and $150 for the golf gear, assuming it hasn’t gone rusty… Ray was here for 3 nights, , was meant to be 3 days, but he missed his flight, so it was only friday and saturday during the day. Lol yeah, weather hasn’t be the best, but i have wet weather gear so i dont mind. I’ll have to get smily to check out the quilting place on the weekend. we can do that now that shes finished at myer:) Awesome stuff bout the primary school, hope it works out well for you. Andy
