Just Another Weekend

I have finally recovered!! 3 very sick week... I am still coughing but at least my nose has decided to stay one my face and not run away!

The weekend was very yummy! YES! On Saturday we drove all the way to Yarra Valley to Yering Station's Wine Bar Restaurant for lunch and it was absolutely to die for!!! And on Sunday we had a fab dinner at Giuseppe Arnaldo & Sons, it was so yummy that I almost cried when the whole dinner was done! Yes I am very "tham chiak"!

On another note...

Hubs and I was lazing around last weekend and we were just talking nonsense and joking around and SUDDENLY he got all serious!

Hubs( in a very serious soft and sexy voice): You know after so many years that we are together and I just want to tell you that.........

...(his voice trails off and my heart was beating so fast knowin he is gonna say something sweet to me or suprise me with something- then he continued)

Hubs( sill in a very serious heart melting voice): ...that you look STUPID!!!!!!

*GASP*

I WAS LIKE EXPECTING I STILL LOOK PRETTY OR I LOVE YOU EVEN MORE BUT "I LOOK STUPID!!"

and he started laughing so hard that he fell off the bed. (well I kicked him off the bed!)

He quickly said he was joking! ofcoz...what else ....

But these are the moments which I absolutely adore my hubby for.... he always makes me laugh.

I Have A Disorder

For the past 1 1/2 weeks, I have been shopping like NOBODY's business! Seriously! Bags, purses, dresses, shoes, boat, anything!!! And some of these purchases are well not cheap! Yes I am guilty but when I make the purchase its like my stomach is filled with lollies and daisies and rainbows! Oh what a nice tingling feeling...*bliss*

Yes the "feeling" might last only for a while but I FEEL GOOD!!!

Hubs as usual think I have a serious disorder and he thinks I need to see a shrink! But then he will go a long with it as long as we have a nice yummlcious meal after. See so easy to please men! Just feed them!

Well, I think I "might" have a disorder but in my defense, I AM A WOMAN!!! so shopping come naturally for me!

Out Cold

I have been so sick fo the last 1 week. yes! The flu got to me!!! I was so careful...making sure I had my daily dosage of vitamins, dressed warmly....but it still got me!

By the 4th day, I was still burning, I swear I cough a piece of my lungs out and my body was in tremendous pain!!

SWINE FLU!!!???

Nah...thank God it was not! The good doctor gave me a dose of anti-biotics and send me home for more rest.

I did not leave the house for 8 days and still counting and I am DYING to get out! So hubby took me on a car ride last nite to St Kilda beach...should have just staye at home cause I think I caught the chill AGAIN!!!!

When I get well, I am going to to pour myself a large glass of wine and I am going SHOPPING!!!!

HELL Ya!!!

Super 7s Oz Lotto

No we were not MILLIONAIRES!!

So after so many years living in Australia, yesterday was the first time we ever bought Tattslotto tickets. I mean, it was just basically because yesterday's jackpot was AUD106 MILLION!!! HOW CAN YOU NOT HAVE TICKET FOR IT!!!

So hubs decided ok we buy 50 sets of numbers so each of us forked out AUD25.

At 8.45pm, the draw was life on TV...so me armed with a pen and paper was super hyped up, and super positive that we will win something!! I was already day dreamin about the Birkin and Kelly bags!! and also my trip around the world luxury style. Before you know it... I am still dreamin about the Birkins and Kellys and my trip round the world??!! Yea keep on dreamin...

So it was a cheap thrill for us... ha ha ha ha... I think there are big winners in Queensland or NSW..not too sure...but it ain't me!

Oh well we will try again when there is a HUGE jackpot!

Rest In Peace Paul Kenney

Our gardener of many years here in Melbourne has passed on yesterday after battling with cancer which spread to his entire body.

I got a message from his brother aout his passing this morning and I know it was inevitable...at least he is not suffering now.

I kinda got a numb feeling and looking out to our garden somehow I can still see him mowing the lawn, plucking the weeds, trimming the bushes and making sure everything is tidy...just the way I like it.

In memory of Paul, we will dedicate our little garden to him...afterall he was the one who took care of it so many years while we are away.

RIP Paul.
