Sleepover

So after my date with Honeyman, I was meeting with Deep at his place. Deep and I are both missing the cuddling and comfort of being with someone, so we've decided to be cuddle buddies. It was nice to lay in bed wrapped in someone's arms again and spooning, looking forward to doing it again. Although, I didn't sleep very well, I never do the first night away from my own bed and I don't think Deep slept much either which I am really sorry for. Next time will be better.

Sunday Evening with Honeyman

It's been a busy few days so I thought it time to check in before too much happens.


I had another date Sunday night, not successful at all. The guy kept calling me 'Honey', even after I asked him to stop twice. We were at a local footy club, so I was dressed down and I still think I was the smartest dressed there (I knew I should have worn trackies). We agreed to met at 6, after he'd played his footy match, showered and had a drink to relax. So he came over and introduced himself, giving me a kiss on the cheek (he smelt amazing!), mentioned he was in the middle of a game of darts and would be with me shortly. Fair enough I thought, having Brothers I know not to interrupt a game. I should have got up and left after 10minutes waiting but this guy was towards the top of my list, so I stayed and it's almost 7 by the time he finally comes over and sits with me, using the 'I was on a winning streak' excuse. The amazing scent he adorned before had now been replaced my beer breath, I knew this was not going to be good but will make allowances, he did lose his footy match. So we get to chatting, ignoring Honeyman's beer breath as much as I can, and he mentions how everyone he's met from online has been too materialistic and fake. Not being either of those things myself, my attention is peaked. So I quiz him a bit about other women he's chatted to and met, they all sound the same. So it's getting close to 9 and I tell him I should head off, he offers to walk me out. It's a bit drizzly so he wraps his jacket around me, reaching my car he pulls me in for a kiss and I allow it (soft lips but that breath!) but quickly I pull away from him, mentioning it was nice to meet him and I'll text him sometime.
A few hours later, Honeyman sends me a text telling me he's lonely in bed and wants me to join him at his place. I'm sure he'll make some woman very happy one day, just not this one.

What I've learnt... If you want to gather honey, don't kick over the beehive.

Lazy weekend

Missed my walking group yesterday morning, as it couldn't decided whether to rain or not, and just my luck it didn't. Melbourne weather is not easy to plan with, especially for outdoor events.

Didn't go to the markets this morning either which is a pain, but only because a morning with my Niece is so much more fun. Abbey is such a little character for a 2 year old.

May see Deep again sometime over the next few days, will have to wait and see what's happening.

Mum's home!!

So..... Mum's home! Already.

It turns out she had a blocked artery in her heart, which was the cause of her chest pain and her diminishing energy levels over the past few years.

So they've cleared the blockage and put a stent into her heart to treat the condition.
Amazingly, she was home 15 hours after the operation, so now it's rest and recovery. Is there any need for all the details?

They may say laughing is the best medicine but too much and it aches!

Couldn't sleep last night, too much on my mind, sometimes I think I should keep some Chloroform handy to knock myself out. Ended up folding and hanging laundry, and watching re-runs of The Walking Dead.
Mum's still in Hospital, more tests and possibly an angiogram (know nothing about them so Google is my next stop). Playing it by ear as to how much longer she'll be in.

I considered cancelling my PT session with Caz from Pick Yourself Up Personal Training but there's nothing I can do at the Hospital, so working on my health was the next best option. I'm really glad I kept the booking, it was good to get my mind onto something I didn't have to think about (ok I know that last line is a bit of an oxymoron :P). I didn't have to wait long for Caz, she was really bubbly and it certainly brightened my mood. Being a portable service she keeps all her equipment in her car, so after a bit of unpacking it was time to get the body in gear. Now I can't remember the order exercises came in (I still haven't slept) but there was boxing, walking, weights, stepping, leg lifts, more boxing, more walking, kicking, horizontal cycling, boxing again and a bit of twisting thrown in. Oh and it was a modelling day also which she didn't give me warning for, front, side and booty views of the way I look now (I best be careful, she now has blackmail material) and that vain bird was there at my car mirrors again, but I have a plan! Oven Mitts to cover my side mirrors, if that doesn't work, I might give the council a call as it's quite annoying. Looks like she may have picked up a new client during our session also (I had a peek at her planner, she is one mega busy chick!)
No wonder Caz is so popular, she's so much fun, I swear I'm not calling what we do workouts anymore, they're laughouts now and she has good taste in music too. All in all a great session and I'm now confirmed for every Tuesday and Thursday for a while. She's also recommended a Doc for me in the area, so will have to get onto a health check before long.


So that's it, it's now 7pm and I'm starting to get hungry, the smell of chicken and vegies in the slowcooker are wafting through the room.

Mum hospitalised

I get a phonecall in the middle of today and it's Mum. She's been to the Docs and they've called for an ambulance to take her to Hospital. Of course I panic a bit, especially when she mentions chest pains.

I'm not going to delve into it but she's been admitted to hospital, pain has subsided, ECG is ok but they're running more tests and well find out results tomorrow.

Fingers crossed!

Good people come to those who suffer through the idiots

Met a great guy last night, let's call him Deep (the best way I can think to describe him). 

We'd been conversing online for a while and when he suggested a meet, I was apprehensive. With the messages between us and getting to know about each other going really well, I didn't want meeting in person to feel strained. But I agreed and choose Barkly's Hotel in Heidelberg as it's in the middle of where we both are, it had a great little area at the front, perfect for people watching (although it was 8:30pm then, not many people walking by). I really shouldn't have been concerned though, I'm pleased to say that I have no regrets. Deep is a great guy, very much a deep thinker which I like and an interesting view on things, I can see some good chats happening even if we disagree. He was also the one that told me about MeetUp. Our conversations flowed well and no awkward moments except for when Deep called our meet a 'date', awkward on my part as I didn't see it as a date. I certainly wasn't prepared or dressed for a date anyway.
With the staff at Barkly's beginning to pack for the night, it was time to say goodnight after talking for 2 hours. Slight distraction, one staff member was letting down a shade umbrella outside as we left the venue and I was sure it was going to hit him in the head, he looked so awkward. Back to Deep, after walking me to my car, he asked for a cuddle and I was happy to oblige. I didn't realise how tall he was until he hugged me but it felt good, he's a great hugger, nice and firm, and he smelt really nice too.
About an hour later, I texted Deep to thank him for meeting me and the cuddle, he replied back really positively. So I will see him again, he recommended a movie to me, would be a good second meet/date but will play it by ear.


What I've learnt... Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving.

It's Wrestlemania XXIX time!!!

Getting so excited now, Wrestlemania XXIX is less than 12 hours away!!! Just over 6 hours in fact, think I'm going to bother going to bed? Would I even sleep anyway?

As a recent convert to Wrestling (it's my 2nd year being addicted to this sport), this will be my second Wrestlemania. Strangely, I found out last year my Nan was a huge wrestling fan, her fave was Andre the Giant. Mine is Sheamus and I think Nan would have liked him. Mum is an avid watcher too, smitten by Randy Orton's legs and my Sis-in-law Wendy also likes to watch it occasionally. Guess some things really do run in families and oddly, the males in our bunch don't think much of it.
Still haven't been to a live show though, but all good things come to those who wait right? When it happens it will be done right, in front row seats, camera side of the ring, right in the middle!

So Wrestlemania XXIX and Who I think will win.

Just come across this image from The Body Shop, love it!

These things come in 3's, computer, now car, what's next?

Having more car trouble, 

I'm thinking it's time to trade in the 'ute'.

She's been a great little car, fitted so much stuff it's comical (which is why her name is Ute) and was even sleepinable?!?

She's been my 2nd Corolla, the first one Bluey was tragically taken from a PIT manoeuvre (yep, the one that cops do but it wasn't by a cop) and then this one, where do I go from here? I don't like the centre console on the 2013 Toyota Corollas, I'm not interested in a Toorak tractor or 4WD, a van at this stage is pointless and I've been told to stay away from Utes from an overly protective Brother.

I don't want a big car but it still has to have a bit of power and has to be economical to run.

Argh.... What to do, what do do?
