Home again home again jiggity jig

Home from Las Vegas, much fun was had, and now I'm back at work, tired and sick. Bleh. More exciting Las Vegas report to come.

Hope everyone had a happy, safe chrissy!

It's beginning to look a lot like christmas!

Food is everywherrrrre. That's how the song goes doesn't it??? :)

One of the lunch options at work today was christmas lunch which I'm currently munching on - turkey, roasted vegies, mash potato, stuffing, and a really yummy gravy! And dessert is peppermint smores - it's the first time I've had a smore, so I think once I eat it I'll officially be American :)

Another year older...

Ho hum, I'm another year older today. We've just had 2 weeks in Australia, I've started a new job, and we're about to go off to Vegas for 5 days, so we'll just have a quiet one tonight at home.

Uber quick update

Back from Australia. Had a GREAT time! Heron Island was so beautiful and we had a really relaxing time there. Lovely to see our respective family and friends.

I got a job at Google in a temp to hire position as a project coordinator (woohoo!) which I started on Monday and is going well.

Andrew's now in Spain for a Debian QA meeting, feeling a little sick and tired (literally...) of travelling, but I think he'll have a ball still.

I passed my uni exams - yayyyyyy!!!!! I now have 3 months off for "summer holidays" which of course is winter over here, but we'll cram in as much as we can anyway.

Will get photos from Heron up very soon.

2 SLEEPS TO GO!!!!!

2 sleeps and we're off to Australia! I see my mum and nephews this weekend!!!!!! And this time next week we're going to relaxing at Heron Island!!!! WOOHOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Can you tell I'm excited????!!!! WOOHOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!

Cat's claws

For the fans... :)

No I didn't paint Lily's claws pink! They wear SoftPaws, which are vinyl caps that go on the cats claws. You trim the claws, put glue in the caps, then just slide them over the nails. They last until the claw sheds - usually about 4 weeks.

Our girls race all over the leather dining chairs, and both have long, sharp claws, so they kept scratching our furniture acidentally. So with these covers, they don't tear the furniture up... so much. And it makes playing more fun! They're inside cats, so don't need to climb trees for escape purposes.

Lily had kitten sized SoftPaws which were clear, but now she's getting bigger, she upgrading to the pink "small cat" sized caps.

Here's a pic of Stumpy showing off her SoftPaws.

Lily's audition photos

Lily's hoping for a part in the next Jackie Chan movie as a kung fu cat. Here's her audition photos :)
