Thank you for your kind words Joe. And you too Freeze - I will convey that to him once he is home from work

Sharks and tidal waves lol.
It is getting out of hand now isn't it? I'm finding it strange coincidence that it seems to be always on a Thursday too. I guess the best thing to do is sit back and find some humor in it. lol

In sticking with my usual Thursday curse: my car died this morning lol. Had to load the kids up into Craig's pick up and drop them at school. Now we're waiting for the spares to arrive so that my car can be repaired. FFS.. what is it with me and car mishaps on a thursday?
On a positive note the idiot who drove into me has reported her case to her insurance and they called for some details so pretty soon they'll be paying for my damages and I can repair the damage at the back. I'm still thinking of painting a bulls eye on the back lol.

Me and Craig yesterday:
Craig getting his medals for his service in Afghanistan pinned on:
And his medals - the one with the black and white ribbon is called the New Zealand Operational Service Medal, the one with the coloured ribbon is the New Zealand General Service Afghanistan Medal. He received the ISAF medal while he was there, but he wasn't wearing it here (wasn't supposed to anyways apparently lol):
Like I said, I'm very proud of him. Just a random note, they don't always wear their berets with this uniform, they often wear what's called a mounted rifle hat, but because they had the battalion photo before the medals were presented they wore berets, cos otherwise you wouldn't be able to see who anyone is in the photo LOL! A very special day for us I believe. |

Me and Craig yesterday:
Craig getting his medals for his service in Afghanistan pinned on:
And his medals - the one with the black and white ribbon is called the New Zealand Operational Service Medal, the one with the coloured ribbon is the New Zealand General Service Afghanistan Medal. He received the ISAF medal while he was there, but he wasn't wearing it here (wasn't supposed to anyways apparently lol):
Like I said, I'm very proud of him. Just a random note, they don't always wear their berets with this uniform, they often wear what's called a mounted rifle hat, but because they had the battalion photo before the medals were presented they wore berets, cos otherwise you wouldn't be able to see who anyone is in the photo LOL! A very special day for us I believe. |

Thanks Spa the shots aren't bad considering my camera didn't like the artificial light in the gym (where the parade was held, lol).
Ok I just saw something super weird on TV. I'm watching an Italian cooking show, and there was this village in Italy, and they married two trees. Eh? LOL!

Morning everyone! I slept like a log last night after such a busy day, lol! I have a couple of pics I want to share from yesterday cos I am very proud of Craig. I've posted them here rather than in the 'picture of you' thread cos they're not really of me, although I am in one LOL!
Me and Craig yesterday:
Craig getting his medals for his service in Afghanistan pinned on:
And his medals - the one with the black and white ribbon is called the New Zealand Operational Service Medal, the one with the coloured ribbon is the New Zealand General Service Afghanistan Medal. He received the ISAF medal while he was there, but he wasn't wearing it here (wasn't supposed to anyways apparently lol):
Like I said, I'm very proud of him. Just a random note, they don't always wear their berets with this uniform, they often wear what's called a mounted rifle hat, but because they had the battalion photo before the medals were presented they wore berets, cos otherwise you wouldn't be able to see who anyone is in the photo LOL! A very special day for us I believe. |

G'day mates
Well, I don't know why but I'm incredibly tired today. Nothing out of the ordinary, my usual gym routine had enough sleep so I have no idea why I'm so pooped. My eyes are burning and are trying to find a way to climb out of my eye sockets lol.
I guess it must be the weather. It is so cold here and we're having some damage from rain storms around the province. Some people are stranded on an island due to rough seas and a barge that was being towed to the Netherlands was run aground. Luckily nobody on board so it's just the barge that is stranded. We've got the most highest waves hitting the coastal towns. I grew up around the beach but now live about an hours drive away and judging from what I heard and saw on the news today, I'm kinda relieved that I'm not on the coast right now!
I think some tea, a good book and an early night is in order. ( freaky.. it's probably mid-day or early afternoon for most of you lol) |
