I've made no secret of my frustration to understand what the big attraction with football is. But out of a sense of 'supporting the boys' I gamely ventured off to the AFL with them on Saturday night to see the Brisbane Lions play the Western Bulldogs (Lions lost btw!). Sorry to all those footy fans out there, but I still can't see what grabs people about the game, but I did get to take some snazzy shots with my NEW camera! Yaaaayyyyyy! Yes, I finally took the plunge and went and bought myself a new one. Not a dslr cause I am soooo not a photo expert and don't profess to be but rather a camera in the 'super zoom' range. I am obviously still learning how to 'drive' it but these are my first attempts! I was quite impressed with this one of Akermanis because he was actually a long way away from where we were sitting when I took it. Photography experts may like to direct me to a good 'digital photography for dummies' site though! ;)
I'm a mother, wife, worker, housekeeper, chief chef (at my place!), educator, chauffeur (to the kids), personal assistant (to my kids), secretary (to everyone here!), pet carer, laundry worker.....ummmm...need I go on!
Sanctuary by Nora Roberts.....I'm having a Nora 'love-in'. This is the fifth book of hers that I've read in a row and I still love her stuff!
CDs and Songs I'm Currently Listening To
Offspring Season 2 Soundtrack!
Adele...that woman has a God-given voice!
What I'm Watching!!!
Offspring...season 2....if you don't know what I'm talking about then you either don't live in Australia or have been living under a rock! One of the best tv shows on our screens! Sadly, season 2 has just finished (on a massive high storyline wise!) And I have to say to all of the fellow followers out there...I'm definitely team Patrick!!!!!
Eat, Pray, Love....don't be deceived by mixed reviews. This is a sweet movie with a lovely, hopeful ending. Like the book, it bubbles along so don't go expecting action packed emotionally wrenching storylines though!
