I’m on holidays, and it’s fantastic. Had the chance to catch up with my friends the other night which was great, I’ve hired out some movies that I’ve been wanting to see for a while, enjoyed the outdoors with my dog, and there’s still another week to come with much planned.

The best things about holidays, other than not having to go to work, is that it gives you the chance to catch up on chores that have been needed, but not urgent, for quiet a long time. It feels really good to have them out of the way. I’ve had my car door panels reupholstered… they had been falling apart for months now. I’ve gotten the locks in my doors fixed so my car will open from more than just the passenger side… I will still open the door for you though Melly I’ve also caught up on a bit of reading so that hopefully I can give some books back to people. Some of the above I feared would set us back a few hundred dollars but we’ve been blessed financially and all up the work on the car has come to just under a hundred bucks. This means that we should also have the funds to get the car & lawn mower serviced sooner than I expected.

Next week Melly and I plan on going to Brisbane to visit the breeder we bought Gypsie off, Siberhowl Kennels. We thought it would be nice to see the new litter of pups and give Gyspie a bit of Siberian Husky socialisation. I’m really enjoying my time off and think that I just might have to schedule some more as soon as I get back to work. No more 4 letter words though for at least another weak though.

Oh how wonderful it is to be able to simply relax and unwind.
