Big Couple of Days

I had a big couple of days from Thursday – Sunday last week.  On Thursday, I was at work by 6:30am to get some important stuff done – which meant that I left home at approx 5:30am to get the train into the city.  I worked all day and left work at about 5pm ish and caught the train home.  I got home at about 6pm and I had promised Pete that I would do up the banking for Ingenuity.  Glen had arranged for us (Glen and I) to go to dinner at Fester & Jennifer’s, so he was bugging me about hurrying up as we had to go.  I hadn’t yet met Fester & Jennifer so I didn’t want to be late for dinner.

We got to Fester’s at about 6:45pm but Fester was still on his way home from work.   So we had chatted to Jennifer until Fester got home.  I got absolutely smashed.  I had champers & baileys…. not good to mix, but I quite enjoyed the night.  We didn’t sit down to eat until 9:30pm but the food was good and so was the company.  Glen and I didn’t get home until approx midnight.

On Friday, I wanted to be in the city early again.  So I was up at 4:30am (more like sleep walking) and got to the office at 6:30am.  However, the key that I had been given from the previous person that was in my position, didn’t work.  I just found this out as there’s another guy that starts around this time and he’s always opened the door.  Poo – so I called the other guy and he was walking towards the office.  So I didn’t have to wait too long.

I left the office at about 5:15pm and got the train home.  Glen wanted to go see The Bourne Ultimatum at Gold Class on Friday night with Jim & Sharon.  We were originally going to see The Bourne Ultimatum on 31 August but Glen hadn’t booked us in – so we missed out on the seats.  So the only time that we could get in to see movie on Friday was 9:30pm.  It was a good movie, but I was just so tired so I think I could’ve enjoyed it more.  We got desserts for during the movie.  I got the Apple & Blackberry Crumble – mmmm yummy and Glen got the Lemon Tart – he said that was good too.  We got home at 12:30pm.
On Saturday, I had an appointment at the beautician’s at 8:15am.  Megan (the beautician) also had a big night on Friday; it was her Hockey Final, which her team won and the went out for a few drinkies.  I think that she was feeling a little worse for wear.  I then had an appointment with Yasmin to take some photos of her and bub bub (Sienna) for my Photography Course.  Bub bub was pretty cranky cause she was tired and Yaz thinks she’s going through a growth spurt which also makes them a little grrr.  Yaz had to leave to go to her Mum’s at 1pm, so I went home after that.

I had an Intimo party on Sunday, so the rest of Saturday involved cleaning the house.  Fester & Jennifer were supposed to come over for lunch on Sunday too, but they ended up being crook and didn’t end up coming.

Sunday morning, we got up and I had to go to the shops and grab some stuff for the BBQ (that didn’t end up happening) & for the snacks I was going to do for the Intimo Party.  I made some scones and did all the prep work for the BBQ.  At about 11:45am, Glen called Fester to see how far away they were.  It went to message bank.  Glen got a call back at about 1pm saying they were sick.  Then Deb the Intimo Consultant came and set up while Glen and I were eating our sausage rolls (quick and easy lunch).

Other people started arriving for the Intimo Party, so I got out the snacks and some drinks (non-alcoholic of course).  The Party went well and everyone had left at 5:45pm.  We then had to go to Glen’s parents for dinner – they eat early so we were late when we got there at 6pm.

I was happy when it was Monday because I got to relax – yes while I was at work.
