hello australia!
i miss you all. alot.
this morning after the kids left i decided to just watch 90210 all day, so apart from clenaing and washing, thats what i did. i am up to season three now, and absolutely loving it! still amazed at how australia could take it off the air.
the kids got home and we played some lego board game until G got really upset because he was losing.
so we played hangman instead.
then i made beef stirfry for dinner, gave the kids icecream and then back to my room to watch 90210.
except now americas next top model is on, so i'm watching that instead.
oh by the way - my nails are going great. they look so nice again!
and you know how in american movies they never say goodbye before they end a phone call? well they actually don't. and if they do, its very rare.
okay, well i'm off.
goodnight! x

rested..
hey!
well after yesterdays efforts i decided i would rest for today..
so i got the kids off to school, i had to drive them because they missed the bus.
eating breakfast takes them about 20 good whole minutes.
sat in the car drop off line up for around ten minutes, then finally came home and went back to bed.
i already tidyed up and cleaned while they were getting ready for school, because i am just THAT good lol
slept for another couple of hours, watched gossip girl season five episode that i missed last night and then more 90210 - almost finished season two.
then i had a shower and waited for the kids to come home.
they played outside with their dad for an hour or so, i made an early dinner, then we went to tae kwon do and the boys went to soccer.
got home at seven, freshened up and then i went to dinner with lauren so she could tell me all about her two week vacation that she has been on. sounded amazing!
stopped at starbucks for a chit chat with the other girls and now i am home, ready for 90210.
goodnight! x

home from my weekend away!
hello!
woke up in boston this morning.. hoping i didn't get lice and/or fleas from the motel.
we packed up our horribley messy room - which we weren't even in for more then 12 hours.
caught the subway to fenway park and went on a tour!
side note - while we were on the subway, it was packed so we were standing, then when people got off three seats became free so there is this lady, a spare seat, robyn and then linnea. i go to sit down and i say to the lady 'do you mind if i sit there' and she says nothing, doesnt even look at me and then gets up and walked away. how strange is that? i was like, okkkkaaayyyy then.
anyway - even though i'm not a baseball fan, it was super cool.
we got the history of fenway and got to go down on the field and take photos..
and i brought a fenway shot glass. because did i tell you i am collecting shot glasses? well i am.
so far i have new york city, boston city, fenway/red sox and harvard.
and i will continue getting them from each place i visit in my year. feel free to come around to my house when i am home and test them out ;)
so then we went back into the city and went shopping, i brought a shirt from american outfitters, but thats all because i NEED to save my money for my real vacation and travel month.
we had lunch at the food markets, which have around fifty different types of food to choose from, so i had indian which was delicious, and then linnea and i got this huge arse cookie, it was absolutely massive.
oh and i met a lady from gosford in new south wales while i was standing in line to buy my shirt too.
and the performer out the front was from sydney. so that was cool.
then it was getting late and we still had to drive home so we left and went back to where the car was, stopped to get petrol and coffee, got home, skyped with mum, unpacked and had a shower and now i am going to watch 90210.
goodnight! x

boston baby!
hey!
this morning i woke up at 7:15.. it was horrible.
but it was okay because i was up getting ready for boston!
had a shower and packed my bags and then robyn, emma and linnea picked me up and we stopped to get coffee at maccas, then went back to my house because i forgot my jacket.. and THEN we were on our way.
so we got to our stingy motel - too early so we did the paperwork and got the keys and then went to the subway to go into the city.
first we went to harvard! it was sooooo awesome.
took photos at the famous library steps! scoped out hotties, bought a harvard t-shirt and shot glass, had lunch at a college cafe.. it was so good.
had to use the toilet, couldn't find a public one, went to starbucks to use theirs but to use it you had to buy something and then enter the code on the receipt into the code thing to get into the elevator that took you to the toilet. how much of bloody hassle just to pee!
then we went to boston city and got on a upper deck tour bus that lets you get on and off whenever and wherever you want for two days, so that was good.
we saw fenway park - home of the boston red sox, went on a 'big splash' duck tour..
then we went to quincy markets, which is a huge open marketplace, with foods and other little nick nacks.
so then we picked up wi-fi and used 'yelp' to fins somewhere to eat, went to find some italian place and it was closed - on a saturday! what the hell? - and so we found a thai place and it was a little gross looking.. by this time we were about seven blocks from where we started and started the trek back.
found a place called ubermuma and it was delicious, but our waiter was really un friendly and short with us so we didn't tip.
i face timed with chloe and chelsea and then we went for a walk to look at all the food markets.
got on the wrong subway and then finally found our way back to the right colour track.
so then we get back to the motel, go to room number 29 - like our key says - and we unlock the door and there was a random old man in there with his shirt off! hahahahahahaha
the people who run the place mixed it up and so we had to go back and get another room. god it was funny.
now we are hanging out, decided what to do tomorrow.
by the way - boston is really nice!
goodnight! x

forgotten lunch..
hey!
its friday! and i am finished work! and i am relaxed. and soooo ready for this weekend!
got the kids off to school, realised harrison left without his lunch box, so i dropped that off, went to redbox to hire 'thor' for the kids, came home and went for a jog and as soon as i came in the door afterwards it started pouring rain.. lucky me.
so i ahd a shower and i actually straightened it! which is a huge deal now, because i always leave it curly.
but i need to check on the growth situation every now and then.. its getting there.
speaking of things growing.. i have stopped biting my nails, again, and they also, are coming along quite nicely. looking forward to a mani-pedi in a few weeks.
then i watched revenge and vampire diaries that i missed this week, and more of 90210 - which i am loving.
the kids came home and they ate, then we went to get harrison's glasses adjusted, where the lady asked if the kids were mine. all four of them were with me too! ha! my response - 'ahh i'm only eighteen'.
then we came home and watched thor. wasn't as good as i had hoped.
then i dropped G and matty to a sleepover, which was only like five houses down but it was pouring rain, s i drove them.
came home and hung out, got some tips on 'things to do whilst in boston' from skip - very handy, packed my bag for boston! had a quick skype sesh with rach! and now i am watching 90210.
going to make a cuppa. night x

dentist..
hey!
well this morning i only had to get one kid rady for school! yay!
harrison gets himself ready every morning because he leaves early, and the twins both had morning dentist apponitments so i just keep them home instead of sending them for an hour and a bit of class.
so once matt was gone the twins and i hung out, got ready and went to the dentist.
which on the way a button on the front of my jacket popped off, i was driving and it literally just fell off.. strange.
so when we picked up their grandma on the way i grabbed a needle and thread and then sewed it back on in the waiting room while i was waiting for the kids to be done :)
then i took the twins back to school, which is where todays exercise took place..
first i sign them in, they walk me about 1000 steps down the corridors to their classrooms, they are both empty. they hung up their bags and G thought they might be at lunch so they got their lunch boxes and we walked back in the same direction we came, past the main office, to the cafeteria.. they weren't there.
back to the classroom to put their lunch boxes back. then back in the same direction to check the gymnasium. nothing. finally a teacher asks if we need help and then tells us they were all at outdoor recess adn will be back in their rooms in about five minutes. back to the classroom. and finally, the class turned up.
exercise complete haha
i then went to meet robyn at panera bread (where i had the most delicious mango smoothie ever!), and we booked a motel for this weekend in boston! anndddd in my PEOPLE magazines, i have seen alot of 'snap shots' of celebs just casually hanging out there! wooo!
came home and finshed season one of 90210, started season two.
kids got home and we did homework, played outside, harrison went to tae kwon do, i made dinner, took the boys to scouts, dropped books off at the library, cleaned and vacuumed the car, got petrol and milk, picked up the boys, came home and started showers and then i was finished.
now i am watching the season premiere of greys anatomy season eight! and it is sooooo good!
goodnight! x
p.s in america tiny teddies are called teddy grahams. weird.
