Yay! It’s the weekend!

The weekend rolled around finally! 

Last night we went out for dinner to Bistro Plume; a groovy little French restaurant that was smack bang in the middle of nowhere - and full. It was yum and unlike the Melbourne places we dine at, we could hear each other because the music was low! 

When we first sat down I thought what the hell were we going to have to say to one another after 20+ years. Amazingly we didn’t struggle at all!

Tonight I’m going to the football with my daughter who has taken a night off from husband and kids. Hopefully the Cats will be back on a winning track. 

Then we are going to dinner at Pistol Pete’s. Blues bar for a late dinner after the squeeze picks us up. Then home to bed. Yay. A normal life is beginning’

Life in normality lane...

Well! I'm back to work and feeling ok. So that is the end of the leg/spine drama!

I'll admit I don't have much of a life; just now I'm starting to get it back, (grudgingly). Last weekend was mothers day.  I took my mum out for lunch but it's difficult. Getting her in and out of the car is hard enough and it never seems to get easier. Luckily I have patients; I need it. She does this little rocking backwards and forwards (for what seems like forever) and eventually lands in the passenger seat! 

But once in the car and off to our lunch, I get 15 minutes of repeating myself because she doesn't remember what was just said. She's in her mid 80s. Getting old aint for cowards!

I booked in to go the the football with my daughter (come on the mighty Cats!!!) and then out for dinner. Although I hope I'll still be awake, I'll have competition for a change as my daughter has two young babies so will likely be ready for bed by 10!

Everyone has been talking about the Aurora Australia. I've been out several times, logged into the system and it sends warnings and out I go... I haven't seen anything! A friend of my sister took this down at Torquay! (Hi Donna)

I really wanted to see it; just like this...

Bum... I have to go back to work...

I can't say this has been a holiday exactly. Yes; I'm not at work but I'm off sick. Would that I just have taken holidays, I'd be all over the shop! Be out, doing something! In stead, I'm home, doing nothing. Yes, I went out this morning and trimmed a bush because a guy is coming at some stage today to put up an outside blind.  But even doing that is quite exhausting.

Not to mention if I don't go out anywhere, I've got nothing to blog about!

I am bloody tired; I'm hoping that symptom goes away shortly. I only have next week off and then it is back to work and back into normality. If I'm honest, I wonder half of the exhaustion is simply because I don't have anything to do. Which makes going to work not too bad.

I'm just hoping I don't get fired because I've had a month off!

Oh; and happy the first of May day. It feels like a spring day; not winter!
