I was so busy over the weekend with everything and then the set up of my new site, I didn't really have a lot of time to sit and blog about my weekend, or the crap lead up to it.
I can't remember if I previously blogged about this, so sorry if I am repeating myself, but I had my flu shot on Thursday afternoon. It basically all started because I wanted to see the doctor about an un-ending female issue - one which had been going on for several weeks! Sorry guys, please switch off, but trust me, I won't be getting into details. Anyways, she has booked me in on Wednesday afternoon for a new implant - since this one is coming to the end of its lifecycle. Anyways, I have digressed. I whinged at her about my female issues and complained to her how it was getting in the way of the old papsmear - Sorry guys!. And from then in, I mentioned the flu shot - I am such a sucker for punishment, I swear! So, I got the flu shot, and am booked in for the other two on Wednesday. I'm such a moron. I wasn't feeling great Thursday night and come Friday morning, I was suitably not well, to the point where I stumbled back to bed and begged Glen to call my boss and leave a message. The man is such a sweet, beautiful person! Anyways, Friday was a write-off, plus I said goodbye to the poor little Camry. I was whinging about not selling it a few weeks ago, wasn't I? *slap*
Saturday was better. I got up bright and early and made my way out with Po and Glen to start procuring puppy items! We scored a huge dog mattress thing - it matches the one we got for the kittens a while ago, and a few toys for puppy, plus a lead and various collars. That cost a pretty penny and we haven't even got a kennel or brush etc! ARGH!
After the petstore, we toddled off to visit puppies - that was fun! Nine little bundles of fur and fat, whining and squeaking everywhere. We found a little girl we all fell in love with, so hopefully we'll be able to find her again the next time we go.
After the visitations, it was off to see a big puppy - Delia. this is Po's rottweiler and she's one of the nicest looking rotties I've seen. Very compact, rotund infact and very friendly. Doesnt get exercised much, but when excited will start to snort and carry on with exertion!
Took De-des for a walk and wandered around for a while before landing back home.
Sunday! Sunday was a fabulous day. Without a car, Glen and I rode to Chaddy for some groceries and to pick up the remainder of Margie and Kay's birthday presents - Margie, it's in the mail! Keep an eye out! We came home and started building the puppy enclosure and I'm sorry, but I'm having a severe de ja vu about already explaining this! Sorry!!
You know the thing that hit me whilst doing all this puppy preparation? I really feel like an expectant parent, to the point where I am scared that I'll screw up this dog's life! I'm told that if you don't get it right while they are puppies, they are like a disaster for the rest of their lives! I just find it a unbelievable! I kinda flipped out over the weekend about the enormity. You know, like you have to get up in the middle of the night to make sure puppy doesnt pee everywhere, or that you have to feed them four times a day and socialise them heaps, take them out in the car, to sporting events, even to the local shopping strip. That's all a bit daunting. Like some little creature is going to be solely relying on me! Weird huh? Maybe I'll get a definite taste of what it might like to be a mother and I'll either be completely put off, or ready to deal with it, if it becomes an issue.
Anyways, I was back at work today, which was fine. I was tired and still not quite right from Friday - amazing how I was pretty much fine all weekend and then work hits and I feel a little under the weather - Glen says it's something I talk myself into! But I swear, I'm allergic to work some days!
Now. You Aussies - who was an absolute fool and stayed up to watch part of, if not all of the Logies last night? Did you find yourself cringing? Glen and I were cringing so much, we would switch channels if a celeb was rambling too much, or someone's boobies were just about to crawl out of their hole. It was so trashy, the worst I've seen in ages. Their idea of international celebs was a bit overrated - they had the woman from Cold Case, whom I like but doesnt appear to have much personality and a guy I don't recognise from CSI Miami or New York. And that was it. A far cry from the promise of having some, if not all of the cast of Desperate Housewives. And Ian Thorpe was an absolute bogan! That hair of his was disgusting, as was the carry on with him and Magda Szubanski. And did anyone find it just a bit irritating that everytime a new celeb was pulled up on the fabulous white (?) carpet, they were asked 'who they were wearing'? It was a poor attempt to replicate the Oscars, Grammies, Academy Awards etc. It was just crass. The highlight of the night, apart from the final credits and ending, was seeing Rove get another Logie and seeing Harold from Neighbours do a very poor, but slightly amusing rap sequence during the show. Totally weird.
Anyways, I'm going to organise dinner for my boy and curl with him on the couch to watch some mindless, riveting television!
You know, it's nice to be on blogger - the interface is so clean and it's so easy!
