Oh, it’s that time again.. OK.. Cool.. Where am I? Are we still in January?
We are?
Oh Good.
It’s currently just after 11am on Saturday morning and I’m absolutely exhausted.
The last couple of weeks have been a major turning point in my life in regards to socialising and frankly, while I am happy that I have done all these things – I need a break. I need a rest. I need a Bex and a good lie down.
First, there was my friends 50th Birthday party. M and I have been friends since we met in … 1997 while we were doing a short course in something .. Office Administration I think, and we kind of just hit it off from the moment we met. We’ve known each other for close to 30 years .. ( Bloody hell, that’s a long time!) M was my Matron of Honor at my Wedding – 3 weeks after giving birth to her first Child “Pixie Nose” ( IYKYK) and so, when she pinged me on FB with an invite to her Birthday – of course I said I’d go .
We went to a Cafe/ Bar/ Restaurant/ Function Room place called CRAVE in Boronia. A and I decided to take Eleanor Whillie and see how she’d handle moving about a room full of people. ( Mind you, I’d spent the day in Eleanor already at Hairhouse Warehouse in Knox getting my hair done for the occasion. Shout out to the team for being super helpful and lovely while I was in there!)
And you know what? Everything went OK. M’s Birthday bash was a success and a great time was had by all.
Yesterday afternoon, was my Niece’s Engagement- which turned out to be a surprise Wedding ( A/N: My Aunty B and I called it months ago when we first received the invite in the mail. It’s not hard to put two and two together when the invite reads “Formal Attire” you know?)
And well may I say, the Bride and Groom looked lovely and happy and the afternoon/ evening was a success. Again, A and I took Eleanor Whillie to see how she’d handle the terrain ( It was at Settlers Run Golf and Country Club in Botanic Ridge) and I have to say she took to the grass and things fairly well over all.
When all was said and done, A and I were home by around 10:30 pm. Once all the things were done and we’d scoffed a pot noodle – It was around 1am when we finally face planted into bed and fell dead to the world asleep.
I don’t think we’ve got much of anything else planned for the rest of the weekend -which is good.
Next weekend is a long weekend … As its Australia Day long weekend . Haven’t got much planned either – but we’ll see what happens
Thanks for reading
