A whole week in a word
Thursday 27 June 2002

I have been waiting for something exciting to happen before I wrote another entry but as it's been almost a whole week and nothing much has happened at all I thought I might update anyway...

The weekend was pretty relaxing apart from all the driving around I did. Big-P is getting very good at not grabbing the wheel from me when we are reversing out of a parking spot. Actually, to be fair, he is an extremely calm copilot. Today I find out from my driving instructor when my test will be. The fact that I may soon be "able to drive" is something I having trouble comprehending. Without having heart palpitations anyway.

We saw Attack of the Clones, and although I didn't fall asleep as I did (on three different viewings) with The Phantom Menace, I was still not entirely impressed. Nice costumes but that Anakin is really annoying. How much older is Padme Amidala meant to be? Surely she is way too old to be tolerating his teenage temper tantrums. There must be a large shortage of young good looking males in that galaxy for her to put up with it.

Small and Tiny-Small dropped in for a visit on Monday afternoon. Tiny-Small is still pretty tiny but growing up fast. He can now stand for a few seconds with no support and even apparently took a few steps last week. He can say basic words like mamama, dadada, bird and so on. So impressive! The child is a genius. His first birthday is next month... how time speeds by.

Other weeks highlights include a haircut with a drastically blunt fringe (or bangs for you northern hemisphere folks),

oh boy. these things grow out, right?

eating pizza while watching Sth Korea beat Spain, a visit from Anne, Lliam and baby-R, yoga class with end of term treats and tea afterwards, visiting a couple of knitting shops with my mum including the inspiring but outrageously expensive Sunspun... I wasn't kidding when I said nothing much has been happening all week.

I have just been up to the post office and found a couple of parcels! Nothing is more exciting than this. Firstly there was my latest copy of INSIDE OUT magazine... which means I will be in homewears heaven for fifteen minutes or so. And also a little parcel all the way from Cincinnati. Upon reading that Baby Gap doesn't exist for us Australians (and no overseas deliveries either! How cruel they are), Tricia took pity and has helped me satiate my craving with two of the cutest little suits.
