Im Off!

Hey folks, I am off camoing today for New Years. The last two years we have gone camping for a few days so we are doing it once again this year. Bit of a change of location this year though we are heading inland a bit to Twizel which is on the way to Queenstown and the likes, about a 3.5 hour drive - got everything packed ready to go just waiting for our mate to come over - excite!

Theres a lake and a river to play in - heres hoping the weather is fab. So lots of food, lots of booze and good mates = a wicked New Years! I will see you when I get back, no doubt with some interesting pictures haha.

Happy New Year lovelies, what are you doing to celebrate? xxx

My Christmas & a Thank you

Hi Lovelies, Merry Christmas to all, I hope you had a fabulous day with your friends and family!! I spent the day with James's family, we went out of town to his Uncle and Auntie's house, was good to get out of the city and explore their large yard and garden - even a tennis court! Some pictures of our day below :)

Mother Nature decided to be nice yesterday and I felt no aftershocks until I tried to go to sleep lastnight grrrr, but she also put on a lovely day weatherwise as you can see below!

I also wanted to take the time to thank you all for your lovely comments and concerns after news of more earthquakes, I havent had time to thank you all individually but do know that I read all your comments and appreciate every one of them, they really make my day. I am looking forward to a better year in 2012!!

The lunch table all set - isnt it a gorgeous setting?

So that was my day, I didnt even have tea lastnight I was so full from lunch, my god did I eat alot - Ham and Turkey, how I love Christmas food. I braved the mall today to browse the boxing day sales, was quite dissapointed really, I didnt get much other than things I needed - but I did by myself a new mountain bike yay! Hoping to drag the boy for a bike ride this week sometime.

How was your Christmas? Was Santa good to you this year? Fill me in lovelies xxx

Please Stop

Dear Mother Nature, please leave me and my friends and family alone we are pretty much sick of your shit!!

If you didnt know I live in Christchurch, New Zealand. We have been hit by two large earthquakes - one in September last year and one in February this year which unfortunately killed nearly 200 people. We have suffered from 1000's and 1000's of aftershocks for over a year and then yesterday we were once again struck by not one but two large earthquakes and more continuing aftershocks....it is simply devastating to happen at this time of year. The aftershocks were becoming small and few and far between just when we thought things were getting back to normal Mother Nature stepped in to squash that. We are all ok thankfully and so is our house. Luckily after February we left the eastern suburbs which have once again been hit hard and suffed bad liquifaction, rock falls and power cuts. I really feel for the families over there. Christmas is a time to celebrate and spend time with your family not shovel silt from your yard and house.

But ya know what? Not much we can do about it as we cant control it, just have to get on with life so I am looking forward to opening some presents tomorrow and having a yummy Christmas lunch with the bf's family. Check out Christmas corner below filled with presents yay! hehe

Hey Lovelies, how are we all? Can you believe its like a week until Christmas? Carazy!! It would be great if the weather actually acted like summer cos then it may feel more like Christmas, this last week has felt more like winter its freaking depressing.

Drama

Hi Lovelies, today is not a good day :( The neigbours Mother appears to be away and her teenage son has taken it upon himself to invite over about 40 odd kids and have massive rowdy parties the last two nights - Monday and Tuesday wtf? Anyway Monday was bearable but lastnight was horrific I couldnt sleep all night and I was a complete mess this morning, I was not going to be any use to anyone at work so stayed home and tried to sleep some more and watched movies.....I rang the police 3 times but they never bothered to come over :( Luckily my landlord also owns next door so I rang him today and told him what was going on and he wasnt happy so Im hoping the Mum has talked to the son as there doesnt seem to be anyone home at the moment. Fingers crossed they stay away and I get a decent nights sleep and can get to work tomorrow!!

I have no idea why these pictures are coming out like this but Im too tired to fix it sorry dudes

Dress - Trademe, T-shirt - Glassons, Sandals - Rubi Shoes

You get the gist :P This is another maxi dress worn as a skirt. Dont mind the horrible t-shirt shaped sunburn on my arm either, that will learn me!

Hope you having a happier Wednesday than me lovelies! xxx
