3/9/12 Fathers Day

And so... Happy Father's Day.

It was that time again, it was Fathers's Day. Like usual with any festive event, we had the family dinner and catch up with the family with the addition of a few new faces - Louis is here every other weekend, and Pam is our new homestay student (for how long, no idea). It was a nice night, I was glad to see what Peter (nephew) was up to, it sounds like he has got some big aspirations, he just finished high school last year and is working out what he wants to do. I was rather concerned before because I was beginning to think he was hanging out with the wrong crowd but I guess it was just a phase. Ali (niece) reached the Grand Final of her basketball comp, will have to ask how the game goes and finally Rodney (brother) is considering buying a place in the Geelong area, about time he got that sorted... tough to continuously pay rent.

Now back to Dad... I do worry about him, for instance today he felt like was going to fall while we did some yard work together. However, He is starting to ask for help now. Still has been rather frustrated as of late but asking for help. Also... his hands are 'slowly' getting better, still have doubts he will get back the what they were but as long as they get to a point where he manage better than he is now.

Night Lamp
"Sesame Street" Happy Birthday 

On a random note it was rather hard... but I got finally rid of my good old Night Lamp, been many years since I have actually used it but it always lit up my room since I was small. Unfortunately, there comes a time where you need to let things go. Bye Bye Night Lamp. 

5/4/12 Half done, Half to go,

Took long enough but I finally did some yard work. Half done and half to go. Big thanks to my little niece, probably wouldn't have started if she didn't stay the day. Her little smile made it somewhat fun, the time just flew by. The rubbish bin is almost full, have to wait till next week or so to continue. Good work, Good work!

Switching topics...
I have been working a lot lately mainly due to several reasons. The main one is that, in all honestly, I want to move out of home and live with Zoe - if she wouldn't mind. However, the whole idea of rent is something I don't like hence I want my own, well, our own place. Is it wrong to try and work towards this?

With this said, I am also looking into the ASX Stockmarket and thinking about giving it a shot. Its quite vast and there is a lot to learn but I am sure if I am willing I can both learn and make a lot money. Currently doing what I can learning and trying things out. Also, received a interesting proposal from Woolworths limited offering SPP - Share Purchase Plan. So, shares at a lower rate than the market price. How much lower? I am not sure, I am waiting for additional information. Although at this point it is sounding rather interesting after going through their business material and current performance reports.

My Goal: Get enough for at LEAST a deposit for my own, "our" own place next year.

5/2/12 Chores?

Felt a little guilty about my room today, just had to spend some time cleaning it. Turns out I moved things around as well. I got a little too into it all I forgot to have my lunch! Although after everything feel much much better and sooner or later I need to work out how much it costs to get it all painted. I have put it off so long and I really want to looking all nice and pretty. Wonder how much it will cost to get the carpet changed... So much things I want to deal with. Have to do one thing at a time don't we?

Looking forward to tomorrow. SUPERBOWL. The one big game of American Football everyone looks forward to. Well... not so much me, I just want to hang out with a few mates. Somehow this even has become a yearly thing. No doubt it will be fun. Depending on how long the game takes, I may or not hit the gym tomorrow. If not I will be going first thing on Tuesday morning... either way expect a Week 1 transformation photo here by tomorrow.

I can't help myself.... Zoe you rock, how does simply talking to you make me feeling so special? I am glad you loved that song, How can everything feel so right between you and me?

"This is our fate, I'm yours."
