I appear to be having some connection issues at the moment, which is making any responses to things a little slow and also making me slightly crotchety because I can't get on to all the websites I went to get to. Luckily deadjournal seems to be holding up well.
Sunday routine today, so I went to church. Today was the first Sunday for a while in which I wasn't serving which was definitely a godsend as it was "Punch" (as Mum calls him) and the more he speaks, generally, the less Christian I feel. Anyway it was fine and people chatted and it was just a normal Mass really. Chatted to Auntie Janet and Uncle Paul at Nanny's house afterwards. Our Prawn has done wonderfully well on his resits. I'm SO HAPPY for him! Now he just has to fight through his final year exams! :)
Auntie Irene took Fern out to visit Auntie Maura and go take the dogs out so she didn't stay for dinner, dinner was lovely of course: meat pie, new potatoes, sprouts, carrots 'n' turnips followed by apple pie and custard and with the leftover pastry Nanny made a big lemon curd tart and gave me half to take home! I asked Nanny whether Auntie Irene had been on her Wii fit yet and Nanny said that she'd been reading the guidebook and complaining it was complicated. My arse. I set it up for her and, just to test it worked you understand, set myself an account on it. I knew it'd say I was slightly too heavy because most things that go on your bmi do, because I'm short and stocky. It matters little to these things that I'm only a 30inch waist, or that I was nearly exactly the same weight when I was an inch shorter and had a 34 inch waist. lol. So it made my Mii look all blobby and then I provided immense amusement to Nanny and Mum by attempting the excersizes. The yoga was mostly a hilarious disaster (WHO CAN STAND ON ONE LEG with their jeans trailing around them for FORTY SECONDS? INSANITY!) except for the 'breathing' one which I aced because breathing from your diaphragm is something I was trained to do years ago. I played quite a few of the games. I was best at the hula hoop one :) I enjoyed that. All the other balance games were hilarious disasters cumulating in my mii actually kneeling on the ground shaking a fist like an Adam-style-paddy. It was fun though. I'm all tempted to get one for myself but I'm trying to restrain this urge until I have thought about it thoroughly. It's a lot of money for me to spend on random impulse, particularly after I've already put something on the never never this weekend (dvds, see twitter post).
Been applying for quite a few jobs lately, or at least it feels that way, but from most of them haven't even had replies in reciept of application, let alone a 'yay' or 'nay'. It gets muddling because then I forget who I've applied for and such.
Auntie Irene managed to sneak me the brandy bottle from the 'christmas cooking hidey-hole' so hopefully if I get the last ingredient tomorrow I can make a start on one of the cakes I'm making this week. *maniacal laughter*
