OK ... I will ... hell another week gone ... and here I promised myself I was going to write the blog more often ... so that the post weren't so long and you didn't all get BORED with my ramblings ...
And I had every intention of writing more last week ... BUT ???
I don't know ???
Honestly ... my weeks start out with nothing on the calendar and then suddenly it is Friday again and I'm still chasing my tail !!!
June 'jokes' all the time about having to 'book' a date with me so we can have coffee and a catch-up ... I mean seriously ... she's only joking ... I think ... but then again... um... I always seem to be busy but with NOTHING !!!
See I even manage to blog about that nothing LOL !!!
Right last week ...
The right arm shot up again when asked for a volunteer ... (I have got to strap it down from now on) ... so what am I helping with this time ... fund raising & helping out for the Matric Dance !!! (How on earth did I manage that ???) Kelsey isn't even gonna be involved in that for at least the next 3 years !!!
What does all this mean ... well firstly ... this Saturday 5th March the High School is having a 'Walk for Cancer' and most of the kids are involved ... but other groups etc. can 'book tables' to help raise funds for their causes too ... and the 'Matric Committee' (which consists of girls from Gr11 - they will be Matrics next year) decided a Pancake Stall would be a great way to raise funds for the Matric Dance ... the girls are going to be making/serving the pancakes ... but someone has to 'make the batter' (and I'm not bragging or anything or for that matter complaining or anything .. but mum and I have said on more than 1 occasion .. when we have been to fairs... NO we don't go to them often, but when you do you just HAVE to HAVE pancakes !!! ... no-one here in SA makes a decent pancake mix ... I mean hello it's pancakes ... how hard can that be ??? ) BUT I passed that comment and 'ta-da' ... I'm making pancake batter for 500 pancakes !!!! OOOps !!!
Mind you some of you cast your mind back to May last year ... mum and I made over 200 pancakes to help the girls start out with stock for the HPS FFD !!! We even got a name for ourselves "Petunias Pancake Palace" LOL
Enough about pancakes ... so that's 1 of my jobs this week, spent at least 2 days last week on the computer ogling (oops no I meant editing) the photos of the gorgeous Charles ... It was hard ... but somebody had to do it ... (I guess that doesn't sound very professional does it ... maybe I'm not supposed to drool over the models ... but take a look and tell me he was not worth loosing ones professional integrity over LOL)
Wednesday last week saw me back at the hairdressers ... really HAD to go even more PINKY/PURPLY ... OK a bit crazier than normal ... Anne decided to try out another technique ...
Don't you just love my model pose ...
Far be it for me NOT to give everyone something to talk about ...
Thursday saw Kelsey taking part in his first Inter-House swimming gala ... hey and parents were allowed to watch ... so that was fun ... and very interesting how they do it at High School ... done & dusted in under 2 hours !!! Primary School was a whole day affair LOL
Friday I played TAXI again ... the REM unit at Hillcrest Primary School had the Official opening of their new classrooms and some of the High School pupils (those that had been at the REM unit helping raise funds over the last 2 years) were invited to attend the ceremony ... and as I was also invited (by the REM unit) I helped out by ferrying kids from High School to Primary School ... so that took care of Friday ...
Saturday I finally attended my camera course ... it was part of the GIFT when SANTA gave me my new camera ... so I spent Saturday morning getting even more confused than I ever was ... and had to unpack the new camera ... have had a play and ummm not too sure about it ... feels like I need to be a rocket scientist to work it ... or maybe an airline pilot LOL
BUT I think all I need is practise, practise and practise .... mmmm maybe need to get me few more HUNK-a-liscious models to shoot ???
Talking of HUNK-a-liscious ... Kelsey is playing his first Rugby Match for High School on Saturday ... yes this coming Saturday 5th ... the very same day I'm supposed to be helping make pancakes ... bet you can guess what I won't be doing ... or rather what I will be doing ???
There's NO WAY I'm missing his first HIGH SCHOOL match !!! not for no pancakes !!!
So I reckon I'll get some practise with the camera on Saturday ...
And as for this week ... so far all I've been doing is working on things for our Club Rugby's Family Fun Day ... which is coming up at the end of March ... yes again ... another volunteer thang that I got myself into ... one thinks one is doing oneself a favour by joining all these committee's ... but all one is really doing is lining oneself up for all these extra jobs !!!
And that's pretty much my last week in over 1000 words LOL
Oh just have to mention my stoopidity last night ... I managed to lock my keys in my car !!! The passenger side door does'nt wanna lock these days ... and because I have central locking the car won't lock at all if the stupid passenger door does'nt lock .. get the picture ? So last night I'm going out to a meeting (oh have to mention it's the Hillcrest Camera Club Meeting !!!) ... and my friend Yvonne is meeting me there, I lean over to lock my passenger door from my side of the car, Yvonne walks over and says Hi !. I stand up, say hello and slam my car door .... SHIT! shit!Shit! ... there sitting on my drivers seat .... my car keys !!!! We had a good laugh about that ... thankfully I knew where the spare keys were at home ... and Yvonne very kindly drove me home to collect them (after the meeting of course!) and dropped me back off to collect my car ... won't be doing that gain in a hurry ... Maybe I should just get the lock fixed !!!
