« on: December 28, 2004, 08:59:07 AM »
Anyone taking the days off in between or on hols at the moment?
Some are on permanent holiday lol, but for those of us who are having a well-earned break, what you doing?
At the moment, i am nursing my aching body from doing a one-day blitz in the garden the other day - all them weeds from all the rain we've had.  Haven't been able to move for 2 days lol
Doing lots of reading (girlie books lol), listening to music and not much else!
Watchya doin?

Life goes on

Same here bg   :thumbsup

Been mostly vegging - stuffing myself with left-over turkey, cake and chocies  :santa and listening to streams of albums off a brazilian radio station website. Went also for a drive out towards the Dandenongs boxing day to get out of the city.

Ditto and I am loving this weather. Let it snow I say :bow

Ventured to a shopping centre yeasterday - MISTAKE ;D because I needed to buy an external CD burner thingee for my notebook which had triple by-pass last week ;D

listening to streams of albums off a brazilian radio station website.

Are they in English? :lol and do they know who Delta is in Brazil? :rollin

Have been watching a bit of footy on FoxFooty, NFL Football on Fox Sports and the cricket from South Africa.

And walking the dogs frequently to attempt to get rid of all the Xmas Pudding I consumed at Ma Powell's on Xmas day ;)

I am also off until the 5th of Jan.

I have spent the last few days doing a little bit of shopping with the Mrs and then vegin out on the couch and watching the cricket all day.(One bonus from the old illegal foxtel is that i can still pick up WIN tv from Perth, i got the Melbourne test live and direct all day long as well as any one dayers in Melb! :thumbsup)

Other than that i have 1001 little jobs to do around the place.

Doubt i will get them all done though.

Delta sings "inesperadamente"  ;).

Nah the songs are actual recordings of the albums. Mostly mainstream stuff from the past 3-4 decades. Have a "tinny" sound due to the streaming but still good enough to listen to. Just pick a "artist" or a album or song title and listen to it. Too easy  :thumbsup.

Heading down to Rosebud on the Peninsula next week for the last couple of weeks of the school hols. Should be good to have a couple of weeks off and rejuvinate for the year ahead - Just hope this Melbourne spell of Winter in the middle of Summer is getting its fix and is gone by then  :thumbsup

Happy New Year to all.  :cheers

Just back from holidays today, which is probably good, coz I feel like I need a holiday from my holiday.  There’s only so much socialising one can take in 3 weeks.

Makes it a bit rough trying to get back into work mode.  Is it time to go home yet?
